Sometimes I miss...
13 years ago
...working at Wendy's. I know, most people think that working in any fast food place is scraping the bottom of the employment barrel. But its just like any other job with its good days and bad ones. What I miss the most is the camaraderie that I developed with my co-workers. When we were busy we were busy and focused on our work. But when the rush let up and we could relax a little while still doing other tasks, we could talk and joke around.
I'll never forget the time one of my co-workers had a problem with her shoes. They were wore out to the point she had holes in them, so her feet were getting wet whenever she mopped the floor. Her solution? She put plastic gloves on over her shoes. It was one of the silliest things I've ever seen: this girl giggling like mad while mopping the floor, watching her feet. The fingers of the gloves were flopping out ahead of her with each step XD
This same girl was also a bit of a klutz, but only in ways that involved loud noises. Almost every day she would accidentally drop a stainless steel container onto the cement floor. Or she would brush against the hangers were the metal lids to pots were stored, causing one or more of the lids to go crashing to the floor. Was never a dull moment with her around.
