Everyone has had a job in the service industry and I think we can all agree that it is the equivalent to shoving yourself through a meat grinder. From terrible bosses, co-workers, and the absolutely awful customers the cast of "Friends" is here to prove that they too know what its like to be broke and run over by the rest of the human population.

1. When you get to work and nothing is done:

2. When your boss expects you to act like work is the greatest place ever:

3. How you're actually going to act throughout your shift:

4. When customers won't stop asking you for things:


5. When a customer trashes your job because they know they don't have to clean up after themselves:


6. When a customer thinks you're going to believe whatever lie they've thought up to get free crap:

7. When a customer says you have terrible service skills:


8. When your boss wants you to give a customer a sincere apology after you were just so rude to them:


9. When you come back to work and nothing is clean like you left it:


10. What you'd rather be doing with all of the fancy clothes you sell or guests bring to dry clean:


11. When your boss tries to dump their work on you:


12. When you constantly have to correct your co-workers' mistakes:


13. When you show up to all of your shifts on time and your boss acts like you're not a team player because you don't want to pick up a shift:


14. When you successfully avoid a crisis at work and the world is bright again:


15. When you get to the last hour of your shift and you get so excited:


16. When you finally clock out:

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
