Chefs, line cooks, anybody who's actually run a service: how do you use your front and back burners?

I've done it. Been a long while, but if you put your attention to your goals, and work towards accomplishing them, finding a sex partner is put on the back burner, with the opportunities growing as you succeed in your goals.
