Everyone who has worked in fast food, whether in high school or during college, knows the struggle of the work behind the scenes in a restaurant. It takes patience, multi-tasking skills, and a good attitude, but some things just make employees go nuts. I have worked in fast food for three years now and I feel like I have seen it all, but customers always find a way to surprise me. If you work in fast food, you will probably relate to these situations and amazing Spongebob memes.

1. When you finally get a chance to clean the lobby, then three giant family's walk in, looking ravenous.

2. When you sit down to finally take your break, and then a whole group of people walks in and you just kinda sit there hoping that your manager doesn't call you up to help.

3. When you say, "maybe today will be a slow day', and then the apocalypse of customers happens.

4. When your manager asks you to stay and extra hour and it's a decision between another $8.25 in your paycheck, or going home and watching the next episode of Shameless.

5. When you explain something to a customer five times and they still do not understand.

6. When you go above and beyond for a customer and they tip you 12 cents; like you couldn't round it up to a dollar? I'm poor.

7. When you are cleaning the lobby and you notice some old pervert checking you out; seriously, I am working here.

8. When people come in 5 minutes before closing, knowing that you are closing, order a crap ton of food, eat in the restaurant, leave a mess, and don't tip; thats when you know it's a bad night.

9. When you are the only experienced employee working a lunch/dinner rush, and you are running around like a chicken with your head cut off because no one knows how to do anything.

10. When your manager makes you pay for the food you ate.

11. When a customer pays for their meal with change and you have a giant line of people to ring out.

12. When your coworkers are talking about their personal lives and you're sitting there minding your own business, wondering when they are going to shut up.

13. When you take a double shift and you've worked 11 hours in a row, but you're thinking of the money you're making.

14. When you just got done with a three-hour lunch rush and the front door opens up.


15. When you are serving people you know, but you act like you don't know them and hope that they don't recognize you.

16. When you realize you should be getting $300 in your paycheck but then taxes took away most of your hard earned money.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

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?

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.
