Every high school student sets out to get a job, and a lot of them end up at a fast food joint like McDonald’s or Wendy’s. But then there are people like me, who thought they were too good for a greasy spoon and found a job at Panera Bread.
But if you were like me, then you completely underestimated Panera Bread, and how once you’re in, there is no way out.
You Know You Have Worked At Panera Bread When...
1. You feel like you're in a cult.
2. Mother Bread matters more in your life than your own mother.
3. Customers think that they are at a five star restaurant.
4. Bread Bashes leave you crying...
5. …but you get to try the new food for the new celebration, so it’s okay.
6. You have to stay an hour and a half after close to clean.
7. You always mess up the Soba Noodle Bowl, no matter how many times you’ve made it.
8. People will ALWAYS come in, even if there is a tornado warning.
9. Customers act like their life is over if there isn’t any Broccoli Cheddar Soup...
10. …or when we run out of Bread Bowls.
11. …or when we run out of Cinnamon Crunch Bagels.
12. You answer every phone call, even when you’re not at work, with “Hi, we’re having a great day at Panera Bread…”
13. All the old guys know your name.
14. You have every color of the same polo.
15. You know every classical jazz song in existence.
16. Hearing people call a 'You Pick 2' a "Two-fer."
