Did you worked in a fast food joint?

    IMO that's the worst job a guy could have...low pay + no future....but seem like everyone i know had once worked in those place

    I once work in Carvel and i hate that job so much. Too bad adsense wasn't there at that time. I guess adsense did save many teens from Mickey D:p

    I had no (ad)sense when I was a pup. McD was about the only place to work in the small town I grew up in.

    That no future statment is way off base...
    Not that I'm saying they are the best places to work, but I would imagine lots of the millionaires that now OWN a McD's at one point in their life worked in one.

    In any event, I did the grocery store bit when I was younger. Your future isn't a primary concern when you are 15, that paycheck at the end of the week is..gotta get a set of wheels somehow.

    Those are like .0001% of all who once stuck in a fast food joint...but think about it, if you got fired from Mickey D, what can you do? Working in Taco Bell?

    Not only they pay you the mininum, they also teach you the minimun...I always go to the same KFC and there is a girl working for three years already...i just feel sad about her

    Why feel sorry for her? Maybe she's happy doing what she's doing.

    If she feel happy about working in a KFC, that's even sadder

    I have to make ice cream cone when i working in Carvel. It was so bad because...

    my boss is always watching if i make the cone too big.
    if i make the cone small the customer is going to yell at me(we have a scale in store and we have to weight the cone if the customer requested).
    ppl with weird order (once a guy ask for 4 different kind of sprinkle on 4 different side of the ice cream..i made it and got 5 buck for tips)
    kid running and screaming
    the worst is that you have those kid from your school who just come to fxxk with you

    What's so sad about that? Everyone has different goals in life.

    There was an interesting docco on tv tonight talking about Frank Lowe (hugely successful businessman here in Australia) He was a factory worker in his younger years so what you do when your young means shit :)

    Mm. I have never entered to the fast food joints for working, i should say i am lucky in this matter. My parents never shows that way to me to earn and stand on my own feet. However, its my responsibility to stand on my feet, so done some hard work, i settled in a software industry :) So, i only go to fast food joint for parties ;)
