I want to become an apprentice to a chef?

Matt asked:


I am really interested in the culinary world and have dreams of becoming a chef. I’m only 17 years old and now is the time I think I should become an apprentice. Does anyone have any pointers of how to get this position? I mean.. do i just call up a resturant or hotel and ask the chef if I could come in and help cook? It just seems odd. Also what can I expect on the first day in the kitchen? I have no prior experience in this. Thanks!
