A new A&W store just opened up by my place and i applied for no reason, i got the interview. Is working at a fast food place really that shitty as some people make it out to be? I was just wondering if i should take the job or not. And just so you guys know, this is my first job and all i have is volunteer experience on my resume.

most fast food restourants dont use gloves.
i eat out too much so i cant really afford to think about it...

at mcdonalds nobody uses gloves, unless they have cuts on their hands from something. think about touching raw meat, then touching everything else that goes on to your burger.

Ive worked at A&W since April 2006
i started at 8 an hour
im now at an amazing 9
my manager has risen the prices
so even though i get 50% off when i work or 15% when i dont
i cant afford it
im sick of the food
and too lazy/poor to leave
have fun
and summers are fucking crazy as shit
80% of the sales are in the 2 long weekends during the summer
winters are ever so dead
i mean, my last paycheck only had 9 hours on it
and this one is going to have 8

everyone needs to have a shit job to start with. it gives you motivation to do well in school and not to end up getting stuck there untill you're 40.
that said, shit jobs can still provide you with good opertunities, if you happen to have a great boss or a good group of co-workers your overall experience can give you more than just a bad paycheck.
