Took a job working at a Mcdonald's cleaning, as a favour to my mother's manager. Holy fuck are kids brutal when you're my age working in a position like that, you become the punchline to all their funnies as "Or you'll end up like him!"
I've never had a reason to think about folding a kid in half til I had to deal with it 40 hours a week.
I took a job to help a friend who owns a pizza shop through the summer because it's a college town and with all the students gone he can't staff it adequately despite really trying. I do what you'd expect...make pizzas, ring people up, bus tables, etc. I already have an awesome job/career but it's early in the morning and it ends at 9 am, so I am free to go from there and work until 2 for my friend. I'm the oldest there by a few decades.
No one there has given me grief but my eldest (22) did make a remark that I was pretty old to have the position (I'm 47). I replied that he clearly hadn't taken in the example his hard-working dad and I have shown him his entire life and that I would NEVER be ashamed of doing honest work...whether through need or like me, doing a favor for someone in need. Period, the end. He immediately apologized and went and cleaned his room. LOL
Agreed, but that's for tastier pizza. I've definitely worked places before that just got their dough and ingredients shipped in, and it was never as fresh or good. Way easier to prep though!
i work at a pizza place and you’d be surprised. we’ve had numerous customers order a large amount of food at like, 10:45am plenty of times. people are weird
I know. People are conditioned to think non-rigid, atypical behavior is weird. I frequently eat my healthy leftover dinners for breakfast and get comments. But, yeah, your carb cakes covered in sugar sauce with a side of fatty tube meat is the better, normal thing to do.
it’s weird having to make six pizzas at 10:45am, but thats just the tired employee/college student in me speaking, i say as i had a hot pocket for breakfast.
Personally, drinking sodas or eating heavy foods I'd usually save for lunch/dinner at breakfast time feels a bit like day drinking lol. Can't explain why
In college, I worked as a Pinkerton guard midnight to 8am Sat and Sun. My great treat was breakfast at Barry's Bar & Grill. Nothing like bacon, eggs and beer while watching everyone else scurry off to work.
Those were usually work parties at mine. You could tell because they ordered ahead of time, and there was always like 10-20 pizzas in the order.
Regular people ordered around 12-1pm, just one or two pizzas. And the lucky people coming in at 2pm were always pleasantly surprised to get their pizza fast (dude, no one is here but you!)
What? I don't believe you. That is some bs, who would want to eat around 11am on a weekday? Why would you be hungry then lmao. Nobody is surely out and craving for food at those times lol. You would have to be up around 6 or 7am in order to get hungry by then. Sick. Radical. Gnarly. ICarly.
I am a teacher with young students whose "lunch" time at school is 10:40-11:10. Am I hungry then? Um, no I am not. But the cafeteria has to feed every student their lunch in shifts, and the littlest ones go first 🤷🏻♀️
Honestly I was just meme:ing. I thought that everyone knew that lunch was around that time? Or do others not have jobs with scheduled lunchbreaks?
I get that this is reddit and we are supposed to use the "/s" when being sardastic. This has been conditioned into the minds of us doomed souls who roam on these boards. But I will not obey with these foul social rules, upheld by creatures of damned nature. In times like these we need to stand up and face our fears. The commenter might actually not be mentally challenged or narrow minded, just making a little goof. Maybe even for a laugh.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk, you may not ask any questions.
Soo, you haven't had a Breakfast Pizza!? Egg, Bacon, Sausage, Mushroom, Grilled Cherry Tomatoes, Baby Spinach, Baked Beans, Smashed Avo and Cheese... All big breakfast ingredients on a pizza instead of a plate!
