10 Things Every Ice Cream Scooper Goes Through

Working at an ice-cream shop this summer has made me realize how working in the food business sometimes does have it’s perks like getting those muscles you’ve always wanted,, then again it does have it’s downfalls. Here is some FAQ’s and some FT’s(frequent thoughts) that have come up while on the job:

1. Even before reading the menu, “how much is a small?”

ma’am, there are all the prices behind me and even with my smile on my face you don’t even realize how annoyed I am with you.

2. “What kind of flavors do you have?”

If you don’t see the list in front of you then I don’t think you should be ordering ice cream…

3. “Oh can I try ice cream flavor too?!”

Oh! of course you can try it! it’s not like its your seventh sample!

4. The after dinner Friday night crowd and where you just want to hide from it all.

5. After doing a huge order and either get a dollar or no tip at all.

all that hard work for nothing.

6. Having a empty shop for a while but then all the summer camp kids come in.

7. “Can I have a ice cream flavor milkshake?” next customer “oh can I have at * same ice cream flavor* milkshake?”

why couldn’t you say you wanted it too when I was already making one…and after I cleaned the blender!

8. when people leave their garbage on the table.

this isn’t a restaurant, be a big boy a throw out you trash!

9. long line “Can I have a hot fudge sundae?” “can we share a banana split?” “can we have a vermonster?” All while the other customers are getting impatient.

and lastly…

10. please tell your baby to shut up.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

Thank you for all that you do for me
Thank you for working through disagreements with me
Thank you for always supporting me
I appreciate you more than words can express
You have helped me grow and become a better person
I can't wait to see where life takes us next
I promise to cherish every moment with you
Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
