5 Things Ice Cream Scoopers Think Of While At Work
Dog On News

While working as an ice cream scooper during the summer time, you experience many things. You have your regulars who come in and get their norms or to try the new flavor, you have your group of teens who come in before closing and all order milkshakes, and you have your families who come in for dessert after getting a bite to eat from across the street. Although working at an ice cream shop is one of the easiest jobs, you still have times where you become annoyed, stressed, and ready to just quit. During these times we think of many things in our head, but don't say them out loud because it is our job to keep our customers happy. From us scoopers to you, here is what we really think...

1. You just tried a whole bunch of samples to end with plain vanilla?

It is normal to get newbies in the shop all the time. As a tradition, we offer samples of our favorites and ask them if they'd like to try any others. We give each sample with a loving smile hoping they'll go big and get the craziest flavor we have. Nothing saddens us more than a customer ordering plain vanilla in a cup. Get wild with your flavors!

2. You want hot fudge on your ice cream.... that is in a waffle cone?

We'd love to give you toppings, but asking for something like hot fudge on a cone is just insane, it will melt! However, we will still try our best to give it to you because c'mon it'd be cool to see it work out right?

3. Are you sure you wanna give your 3-year-old a double scoop at 7 o'clock? We have minis!

As much as your child love ice cream we think it's a little crazy to give them a double scoop. Our mini scoops are the way to go for your little one!

4. I hope we don't get a rush before closing because that would suck... A LOT.

We love serving our customers and making them happy, but having to do it before closing is terrible for us. It keeps us later than normal. We wanna go home just as much as you want your ice cream,

5. Man... I love my job!

There is nothing better than becoming friends with your coworkers and even your regulars. We love to serve ice cream and make everyone's day just a little bit better! There is truly nothing better than being a scooper!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
