Fast food worker thread

You got a better gig than I did. They stuck me as a picker just mindlessly pushing a cart up and down the aisles are goddamned day. No chance to chat with anybody, no hearing any music, zero job satisfaction... shit sucked yo.

>work at pizza hut on weekends while at college because a group of stoner friends told me it was a decent gig
>start out overwhelmed but soon get into a rythim where I can make a pizza in seconds and remember the timing on the 10 already in the oven.
>manager is cool and doesn't give a shit if we smoke pot out back on break.
>start banging a waitress wench 10 years older than me who puts a pitcher of beer in the walkin for me whenever I ask.
>within 1 month manager leaves and fucks off offsite until close leaving me in charge until he comes back to collect the money.
>fuck waitress in walkin cooler on a slow night

It was a fun gig for a shitass college student and even during rush just automaton robotic functioning. I just hated the fact it took a couple days to get the grease fully cleansed from my skin.

Waffle house isn't fast food but it's food
>10hr, 2 weeks paid vacation a year, get paid cash money, no delay in paychecks for new hires
I love cooking food and im making more than my manager friend at McDonald's, so I love it but I haven't been there long enough to make it concrete
Im pretty sure it will be worth it even if I get 3rd shift where it's busy as all hell and when the drunks and stoners come out (appearantly it isn't uncommon for fights to break out)
They don't drug test unless you have an accident so im good for that
I would have stayed at Domino's delivery but the wear and tear on your car+gas money isn't worth the pay even with tips

Also breakfast food is the word and we get 9 dollars taken out of our check each week for food, not sure what the limit is but sounds good
And our managers at McDonald's got mad at us not paying for our water, but waffle house gets on to us for not drinking free water to stay hydrated

I had a couple interviews for Taco Bell and Jack in the Box and Carl's Jr. But I've been unable to get hired. I have aspergers and poor social skills and I haven't had a legal job yet and no car, my only education is a GED. Everytime I go in for a job interview I get nervous and drop the spaghetti. But I recently got my first car. Getting a job is hard for me.

For a simple cooking gig, that sounds like a passable deal. $9/ week for food? I crush that in a single meal there, getting my two eggs over easy, city ham, large hashbrowns scattered, smothered, diced, capped, and peppered, plus milk and orange juice. If you're getting a free meal every day worked, that's like a free $41/ week.

Do people really treat fast food workers badly? I always say please and thank you and if they aren't in a rush I ask them how their day is going etc. Sometimes they seem really relieved, it really must be a hellish job.

most of them are incompetent and don't care about their job.

Some douchebags do. I don't, because being a dick isn't going to get me my food any faster, but being decent doesn't cost me anything and might in the spots I eat in regularly. I don't try to chat them up for their life story, but a basic "hello", "please", "thank you" goes a long way.

>I take pride in my restaraunt and our food, so my first thought was, how can this happen?
That's actually almost touching. And retarded.

>Used to work the quick service place on the fifth floor of Disney Quest several years ago
>Half an hour after we closed at 9 someone came up saying they never got their order
>They show us a receipt from fucking 7 with almost everything on our menu, half of which had allergies
>They clearly fished it out of a garbage can
>Show it to the manager, tell her this is clear bullshit
>Manager doesn't care that we we're almost done cleaning, tells us to turn everything back on and make it all for them

We learned to rip all receipts when they come get their food immediately after.

Who the hell doesn't say a greeting and thank you when they receive their food

You should watch Jiro. That would inspire even the most nihilistic dullard to take pride in his work whether that was being the quickest pizza delivery boy or being the most qualified NASA engineer.

How does one enter a sexual relationship with a coworker?

>autismos make up half the board if not more
are you new here?

A job's a job and you need zero skills to do it. Sounds like a good highschooler gig.

not that user but what film you talking about?

Jiro Dreams of Sushi. It's a documentary about an old Japanese guy whose life is making sushi and has been for decades. His sushi shop is in a subway station. He's so enthusiastic and dedicated to his craft that there is literally a waiting list of 6 months or more just to eat his sushi.

It's incredibly inspirational to the tune of "it doesn't matter what you do, just be the goddamned best at it and your life will be fulfilling"

Question for fast food workers: If a customer asked you to spit in their food or otherwise tamper with its hygiene, would you do it? If not, would them explicitly asking you to do it stop you from doing it later if they pissed you off? Like "Wait a minute, that's his fucking fetish. Nope, not gonna give him what he wants".

I'll watch it. I like sushi after all.

Enjoy it

I cant recall this only has subtitles, right, because the guy can't speak English?

No

Is that to both questions?

Im not sure exactly how they do it, but it's somewhere in that neighborhood

It's a No to the entire scenario, because I am not risking my job for some Tendie loving GBP redeeming autist who wants me to spit in his food, i.e. you.

Even if the customer were to request that, it could be a ruse, and if it WERE NOT a ruse, I could still get fired if my manager saw me debasing a customer's food.

>because the guy can't speak English?
Fucking lazy.

High school gig? No, it's like 10 hours a day 5 days a week. it's a good holidays gig before you go back to school. But it easy job, perfect for someone fresh out of high school.

I know, learn the language, right, you chink.
