I worked at a grocery store. Different service industry.

I thought I was a nerd. After listening to this guy reference things that I've never heard of, I realized that I'm not really a nerd. Well, I don't know a lot about comics.

It's weird how people have decided what makes one a nerd and what doesnt.

If you know about comic books or Star Wars you're a nerd but if you know every single stats from the Yankees, you arent.

i think if you know episode titles of shows familar with multiple orgin stories to multiple fictional charecters and have as much knowledge of fictional history as you do real history then your a geek/nerd. if you cannot do these things your just a normal person with quirks

First job was hardees, just me, manager that did nothing, and an illegal immigrant cook.

This was back when the economy was somewhat good so we had trouble finding employee's to fill up so I was introduced to the work force with 60 hour weeks and a break on lucky days.

At least if your a waiter you can sometimes make some kind of a living, but nobody can make a real living on fast food without being absolutely just defeated inside.

The crap thing is I have been without steady work for a year and a half and these damn Fast Food places just will not hire me, my friends have been having similar problems and I think its because we are in college and like keith said they just don't want people who somewhat have their together.

Meanwhile you can look in the back of the kitchen and nearly all of them don't speak English (thats why stations have "runners" and "handers" put a white face on the brown mans work)

Hardees. Horrible flashbacks *ack* I worked the breakfast shift for nine months. My car battery died, but since it was a stick shift I just parked it in the street and every morning at 5:15am I pushed it down the hill and kick-started it. I parked on a small rise in the parking lot so I could do the same on the way home. Did that for nine months, true story.

I worked at Cinnabon for a year and in a fast food kitchen at a Sports Club of rich fucks if that counts.

I remember every single procedure to make 90% of everything at each place. I also know far too much about Batman up to mostly 70s to now.

Luckily I don't know specifics like Mike. But I do know specifics like Keith. Sigh and I am sure my brain could be better used than that lol.

not even finished with this show, but it is full of awesome! Love Mike Lawrence.

My first job was fast food, working the grill at a community college. I was 16.

My last fast food job was either Del Taco or pizza delivery, don't remember which. I was 25 I think. Never been back since, and won't. Done my time.
