Gessler never busted her ass in a kitchen
A couple of years ago there was an interview in Polityka (or Newsweek) with someone (about political changes in general) who said the show was the best exploration of Polish management-labor relations ever and that anyone who wants to understand what's going on in Poland should watch it.
He made a good case of clueless owners who have no coherent plans (beyond easy money) and don't know who to manage (beyond yelling and blaming employees for not following orders that weren't given) and who do anything to try to not pay employees. He also praised her ability to bring the sides together. I made a good faith effort to watch it then but.... couldn't get past her, cause I cannot deal with her at. all. ever.
