the weirdest work experience ever...


If you think fast food is boring.....THINK AGAIN!!!

Work on Saturday:

I got there at six, and we had a new shift leader, so he had no idea what he was doing, he was pretty god though because he was really nice to the costumers...the only thing was is that our manager was out of town, so he was the third in charge under our supervisor, and that day he was the top guy...he had nothing done, nothing cleaned or picked up, and no paperwork done...he never asked us to do any of the cleaning, so porsha and I just did it ourselves...it kind of felt like we were running the show ourselves...

Work on Monday:
I came in at six...and the regular manager was back from her vacation, and she was flustered because the night shift people from the day before didn't have anything done. Nothing was cleaned nothing was stocked, and the floor had a huge coffee spill…it covered HALF OF THE FRONTLINE FLOOR!!!

So we had to clean-up and do closing jobs while taking orders, and then a new girl came in at nine…and I got to train her!!! It was so fun, she was really nice, and I got to train her on the computer, and the lobby jobs, and fun stuff like that, she basically watched me do everything, and I watched her do things too…after she left we had a TWO HOUR RUSH!!! We had a $900 lunch, which means that we were moving fast for two slid hours…it was insanity…I don’t think hardees has ever seen a $900’ lunch in its life…

Work on Tuesday:

I wasn’t supposed to work today, so I was sleeping until Trish (my manager) called at seven, and asked if I could come in at nine…

Here's the best part…I come in, and as soon as I clock in this guy asks me if we can put some more gravy on his biscuits and gravy bowl…I say sure and start taking it to the back so they can put some in it, and my co-worker who is a cantankerous old lady, takes it from me, and tells him we need to charge him fifty cents for some…IT’S A SCOOP OF GRAVY!!!...god forbid we lose a scoop of gravy…so then he argues back, and she says fine well give it to you free, and then she says “next time well have to charge you” I n a “I’m better than you” tone, and then he takes the bowl with the extra gravy, and throws it at us…my Co-worker was a jerk, and then he throws the bowl at me to??? I just got to work, and I already have a bowl of gravy in my face….

But that wasn’t the only good part…also in drive, this lady swore at my manger who is a really nice lady…and she had no reason too, it was because of a bad experience she had had elsewhere…it made no sense

Also in drive this really cranky lady gave me her money…and she threw it at my hand, and it blew in the wind…it blew out in the back of her car…I had to go out between the cars and get it, and then she yelled at me, and I just giggled at her because she was in a really bad mood, her cat must have died or something…

Then after work…@2…I was supposed to get picked up 15 minutes to three…well that comes and goes…and the people who were still working are like” you’re still here!!”…


Then my morning manager gets o ff work, and her husband works in plover, he is coming to pick her up, and she said I better not get picked before you…then her husband comes, and I got picked p at 4:40…and when I left, everybody was like “take a picture…she finally leaving”…it was hilarious…


So when you think jobs can be boring, always look on the bright side of life…
