Question Why are the burners acting like this?

I asked my kitchen manager and he said it wasn't anything to worry about. But sometimes they take way longer and it smells like gas. Also really annoying when you're trying to saute during the rush lol. Ignore the soap also btw I was in the middle of cleaning

After a deep clean take the grates and everything off to soak overnight in whatever product you use. When dry in the morning or after deep cleaning that evening grab a vacuum cleaner and go to town on the hole in the center of each hob and get as much as you can of any dirt, dust or carbonized crumbs down there. This used to sort it out for me when I was working a similar 6 burner.
Best of luck OP.
