I’m convinced that Mediterranean’s Johnathan Shillingford below deck is a production plant

Below deck, the Mediterranean season 9 Chef Johnathan Shillingford has struggled so much in the first charters of the season that I am convinced that he is a producer factory whose purpose is to make the journey difficult. Although Captain Sandy Yawn is used to dealing with difficult crew members throughout his career as a superyacht captain, there are some signals that Johnathan has been giving off that make it seem like he’s not just a problem employee. Chef Jono’s attitude has been right from the start of the charter season, which has confused viewers and made me certain he will be fired.

Although Jono has said that he has previously worked in superyacht galleys, his time on Mustique has been a confusing mix of poor performances and an inability to understand his many mistakes. Jono, who didn’t originally plan to be a chef, joined Below deck, the Mediterranean season 9 knowing that working under Captain Sandy wouldn’t be easy, but he felt up to the challenge. Unfortunately, Johnathan has struggled to create an environment for himself to flourish and may be the first member of the Mustique crew to be fired. I believe Jono was brought into the cast for drama.

Chef Jono has shared that cooking is not his passion

When the chefs are on Below decks don’t always tell their backstories, they are usually open about cooking being their biggest passion. Although chefs have pursued other avenues in the past, chefs generally discuss their backgrounds in the kitchen, share the kitchen they enjoy working in and the challenges they face, all while assuring viewers they can handle the job. feeding on-demand guests. During Below deck, the Mediterranean in season 9, Johnathan introduced himself and his cooking in a different way.

Although Jono was serious about his profession, he said that cooking was not his first passion. Although he knew he was good in the kitchen, Johnathan made it clear that he had previously been interested in fashion, and cooking had been more of a backup plan than her original life goal. Although he wasn’t the most passionate cook Captain Sandy had ever managed, he seemed capable of getting the job done.

Captain Sandy already has someone waiting in the wings

Although Jono’s performances on the last charter have been difficult, it has been clear that Captain Sandy has noticed his performance and has had a contingency plan. Although it may not be the most comfortable move, Captain Sandy must understand and anticipate the needs of the crew before the crew themselves do. Keeping track of the way Chef Jono has performed from order to order, Captain Sandy has been working in the background to make sure another chef is ready and waiting in the wings if he needs to fire Jono and move on to another chef.

The chef’s performance has been ridiculously poor

all the time Below deck, the Mediterranean season 9, Chef Johnathan’s performance has ranged from mediocre to painful from charter to charter. Jono has tried to keep the charter guests’ needs in mind, but his cooking is still more worrying. During the first charter, Jono ran out of food supplies from Mustique after a mix-up with the caterer left the crew without most of the ordered food and alcohol. Although Chef Jono was able to prepare a decent meal for the guests, it was still not up to the standard that Captain Sandy would have wanted from a standard Mustique charter.

There were no problems with tenders during the second charter, so Captain Sandy expected to see Chef Jono prove himself along with the rest of the Mustique crew. While there were a few major issues with the crew, the meals were the most talked about part of the order. The prime guestformer Olympian and friend of Captain Sandy, struggled with how Jono prepared meals, and he complained a few times about the spices he used on the meat. Although Jono knew that most of the charter guests were not satisfied, he did not change anything.

Below Deck has been accused of producer planting cast members in the past

I believe that Jono is an actor brought in by the producers / Below deck, the Mediterranean fail causing drama throughout the superyacht. While this may not be a popular opinion, I believe that Jono was brought in so that there would be some drama with Captain Sandy during the season, giving him something to do in the absence of other crew drama. Although this may not be the easiest thing to achieve, Below deck, the Mediterranean have been accused of dumping yachts for their shock value, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it happened again.
