skewed wisdom

things i've learned from working at mel's drive-in.....

-having to walk to work in a white shirt while it's raining is not a good thing

-no matter how many times you clean the counter, it will never stay that way

-there will be a multitude of fries until you actually NEED them....then, there will be none

-your uniform pants will always be too tight on the day that you have to work a 9-hour shift

-you cannot actually speak your mind to the customers

-you cannot actually punch them out for being rude, either

-punk rockers are still the coolest, but they eat hamburgers just like everybody else does

-when kids say they have to use the bathroom, then they really HAVE to use the bathroom

-nobody ever wants to buy large drinks

-people think that jokes about counterfeit money are hilarious (and they make the same dang jokes EVERY time)

-wives who are rude and bossy to their husbands are very unattractive

-bussing tables is pure fun

-when the hot cheese hits an air bubble, you'll end up looking like a huge nacho

-if you get yourself dirty enough, your manager will send you all the way back to wardrobe to change your clothes! woohoo!

-50's songs get extremely old after awhile

-brittish people call their fries "chips" so when they say "chips" they don't really mean "chips"

-if you speak a little bit of spanish to someone, he'll automatically think you're fluent in his language

-when a bird decides to visit the restaurant, you must continue working despite the fact that you're shaking with fear

ahhhhhh......even if it doesn't pay enough....
