Having An 8 A.M. Class, If Your Classmates Were The Employees Of Dunder Mifflin

Whoever came up with the idea of 8 a.m. classes is not OK.

Classes that start at 8 a.m. are ungodly and sadly inevitable for the most part.

If you are lucky enough to make it all four years without one, then go you. The majority of people have had to suffer through at least one 8 a.m. in their collegiate career and probably dreaded it every other morning.

The worst time to have an 8 a.m. is second semester when you wake up around 6:45 a.m. and it's still dark out. Regardless of how horrible these classes are, there is no one better to describe your feelings other than the cast of "The Office."

When you know you should get to sleep early, but since you have an 8 a.m. your brain is like...

When your earliest class is at noon, you fall asleep at 11 p.m., but when it's an 8 a.m. you're up till 3 a.m...logic.

Waking up in the middle of the night realizing you can still sleep for 3 more hours

There's no better feeling.

Hearing your alarm clock go off for the first time at 6:45 a.m.

Starting to think to yourself, "do I really have to go?" or "wow I hope nothing's due today."

Hitting snooze 3 times over on your alarm knowing it's gonna be even harder to wake up

Like 10 minutes of extra sleep is gonna make all the difference...

Giving yourself a talk and forcing your body out of bed

Why did I do this to myself again...

Staring at your closet in your pj's trying to muster up the brain power to decide on an outfit

Please excuse my outfit, it was way too early to know what matched and what didn't. At this point, I'm going for comfort and not looks.

Suddenly sprinting to change and get out the door cause you know if you don't leave within 2 minutes you will not get a spot

You know the EXACT cut off time that distinguishes if you will make it, or if you'll be circling the parking deck for a spot that doesn't exist.

Blasting music in the car in an attempt to wake yourself up

Trying to wake yourself up by dancing, but for some reason still can't get the blank zombie-like look off your face.

Pulling into a parking spot, and giving yourself a pep talk

All you have to do is focus for an hour and a half, then it's back to bed!

In the rare event that you are early and know you have time for Starbucks, you wait in line like...

Revive my soul venti caramel iced coffee, revive it.

Getting to class, and the person next to you is in too good of a mood

I refuse to be spoken to before 10 a.m.

Finally, after class starts and you've paid attention for a solid 10 minutes, but just can't anymore

Goodnight.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant

There's always chaos in the restaurant business.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant
Brisanis

Working in the restaurant industry is possibly the most fundamentally challenging occupation I have ever experienced when it comes to hospitality and customer service. When you go to a five-star restaurant you expect the time of your life, a two hour getaway, a walk through another time period (rustic Italy, France, Spain, etc), or simply a honeymoon undergo. What you don't see are the behind the scenes scut work: carrying trays, polishing glassware and silverware, kitchen chaos, the list is endless. Now, I'm not saying being a host, server, or bartender is the worst thing in the whole wide world, there are definitely worse things. But the fact of the matter is that it isn't always sunshine and rainbows. In the two years that I have spent in restaurant and customer service, I have spoken my share of expletives, yelled at kitchen staff, and dealt with not-so-happy guests. It isn't easy to keep a bright and shiny smile on your face when all you want to do is choke every person who walks near you. Anyone who has spent even two weeks working in a restaurant understands the rigor and stress that comes with it. Restaurant culture is a tiny world in and of itself that operates on its own principles and creates its own society. It even has its own language. The sayings "runner", "corner", and "on a bus" wouldn't make sense to anyone otherwise. My mother and I both work in a restaurant and the best advice I can give someone going out to eat is to treat us like people. Yes...believe it or not we are people, people. Say "please" and "thank you", or stack your cleared plates before a busser gets to the table. Trust me, the gesture goes a lot farther than you may think.

So, if you work in a restaurant, you can relate with the following points. If not, check out how the brain of a restaurant service (or any customer service) worker actually works. See if you can identify any crazy weird habits your friends have a tendency to partake in.

One of the scariest things we will ever face in our life is going to college. Many of us move away to a new town, join new organizations, and make new friends. We are expected to study, have a social life, relationships, maybe work, and be healthy. It seems pretty easy to do, and in high school all we wanted to do was graduate and move on to this next chapter of our lives. If you are in high school, here are some things that you can learn from before you get to college. If you have already been through your freshman year of college, hopefully you can relate to the things I have learned in college.
