I gave her the meal. She came back and started yelling at me about how I screwed up the order and that she absolutely had to have the brown bun, not white. She then grabbed my wrist, trying to pull me towards her (although there was a counter and cash register between us) and started yelling some more.

The manager happened to be one of the seniors at my high school, so we had a bit of a rapport with each other. He ran over and told her to take her hands off of me.

I was shook but got over it eventually.

I also had a countless number of men ask me to smile.

Anyway, fast food is another one of those jobs that I think everyone should do at some point in their lives, hopefully when they're young and resilient.
People are the worst. They get a little bit of power and lose their fucking minds. The people who eat the healthy stuff are always a loose cannon because those restaurants aren't really about serving health food. It's never going to be right.
