Great fable. And, I really sympathized with it and laughed out loud; I've been there.
But, we should add a few missing details to Jim's world to make it more accurate:
1. Being a chef is one of the most lucrative jobs for a person with a Bachelors degree or less.
2. The world is saturated with recipes and good food. Further, the most impressive recipes in the world are shared freely on the Internet. Because of this, it's common for non-chefs to download the best, most hyped recipes and slap them together to make an inspiring meal or two.
3. Therefore, many non-chefs try to go after chef jobs. Pay is great, and just download recipes from the Internet. Easy money, right?
4. Furthermore, world-class restaurants are in a never-ending recipe-invention arms race, trying to out-class the common fare. To them, chefs that can just cook recipes are useless. They need chefs that can invent new, impressive recipes on the fly with whatever ingredients that are on hand.
5. Because of the success of the best restaurants, every restaurant owner believes that their restaurant is potentially world-class . Therefore, they believe that they also need a team of the best inventor chefs to craft their menu.
