Pros

Flexible with my schedule, still have treasured memories of both coworkers and customers, and loved working with the menu/POS system.

Cons

Little training was given as they expected you to learn the job on the go, I was lucky enough to catch up but most of the time I was left alone on drive thru doing a job meant for 3 people. It was always expected to work with nothing the next day, yet people will still hold it against you, stressful job all around.
