things i've learned from the lovely oakville dairy queen

so today was my first day back at work in about a month... i know i know i'm lazy but i only work weekends and throw in graduation and surgery and whoa! a month goees by... anywho, there were some things that i saw today that i learned from that i've decided to share with all of you
1. check the vaccuum bag before you vaccuum, because if you do vaccuum an entire dq and then check on the bag it is guaranteed to explode not only in your face but all over the clean ground that you now have to vaccuum again
2. when little old ladies come in and want a blizzard don't assume they want the senior discount, it tends to make them mad that you think they are old
3. you must be one sad, bored person to carve a word into a dq counter, it's even funnier when the word you scratched into our counter is dairyqueen, thanks to whoever did that, free ads in our own place is awesome
4. when you try to have fun and change a sign that says 1/4 burger 2.79 to 14lb burger 27.90, customers are sure to complain that dq has high prices
5. if you are 65 and walk into a dq ever again WEARING A TUBE TOP, i think next time i'll just have to pass out in front of you
so even though it's fast food and the people are crazy and i work with drug addicts and people over the age of 50 oh! and someone who went to school with kristen yochum and can't stop talking about her, it's not too bad.. after all i did learn valuable life lessons.

just the thought of a 14 lb burger seems really disgusting... that was my favorite of your lessons. i would really have liked to see someone order a 14 lb burger.

you get so many weird people working in the food industry. my favorite so far is people who order a pineapple concrete. ice cream and pineapple. that's really bizarre. and then i was talking to a girl who works at mcdonald's and someone order a hmaburger and paid for it with a $100 bill. who does that? anyway, people are weird.
