Pros

Since i had no previous work experience, i was lucky enough to get this in the first place. I had 50% off on anything i bought, my co-workers were SUPER nice, and the managers were friendly. During the lunch/dinner rush when things would get stressful, the assistant manager was very nice and always helped me out.

Cons

I basically had to do 3 jobs for $7.67/h I had to run around like a crazy chicken for 7 hours because i was on drive-through. I feel like i was in charge of too many things at once, though at the same time it was SUPER fun to run and slide on the floor with those work shoes haha. Even though this is the part that i hated the most, i feel like it taught me how to multitask and how to work under pressure. I left because i wanted to focus on school; i wouldn't recommend this job to a full-time student.
