6:43 am: " 5...4...3...2...1... Shower off, step out... Dry my hair (God, I wish my hair was longer), dry my body...

 

6:45 am: "On go the socks and the underwear... Pants, shirt... Tuck my hair into the hat (I hate doing this. What's so bad about males with long hair? All the females at work have much longer hair than I do. Fucking sexists...)... Brush my teeth, my gums are bleeding, as ever...

 

6:50 am: "Glasses on, wallet and pen in pocket, let's go."

 

7:00 am: "Knock knock muthafuckas, it's your favorite awkward teenage employee!"

 

7:15 am: "God damn, only fifteen minutes have gone by? Jesus, this is gonna be a long day..."

 

8:00 am: "One hour down, seven to go." *sigh*

 

8:30 am: "Grabbin' cups...Grabbin' peelz... Louis is a funny character... Left 4 Dead looks like a fun game... It's only 15 bucks on Steam... I wish I had 15 bucks on my debit card... Oh right, cups."

 

9:00 am: "Nine o' clock and all is... decent."

 

10:00 am: "Half an hour to lunch. Excellent."

 

10:30 am: *Manager walks up* "Cameron, I'd like you to take over on drive-thru." "Okay first off, don't call me Cameron. And second, WHAT?! Why would you make me do drive-thru? Don't you know my job is bad enough already?! Why do you torture me like this?!" "Okay." I weakly reply. "At least it's only for half an hour..."

 

11:00 am: "Okay Cameron, I'll take over from here." "Don't fucking call me Cameron..." "Okay." *take off headset* "For the love of God, take it! Get that damn headset away from me!"

 

11:05 am: "Uh, Robert? You gonna, uh... Send me on break? No? Mkay..."

12:00 pm: Random Customer: "Excuse me sir, could I get a refill on this coffee?" *I take coffee cup* "Don't call me 'sir', you son of a bitch..." *give customer back his coffee* "Thank you, sir!" "DON'T FUCKING CALL ME 'SIR'!!!!!"

 

1:00 pm: "Rooooooooooooooooooobert... I'm huuuuuuuuuuuuuuungry... Send me on break, please..."

 

1:30 pm: "About fuckin' time... Large Big Mac meal, here I come..."

 

2:00 pm: "One hour left... just one hour... just survive one last hour..."

 

2:15 pm: *random kid comes up to order* "I'll have a *blablabla*..." "Okay, will that be for here or to go?" I reply. "For here." "Okay, that'll be *insert price here*." *hands me the cash* *I put it in my drawer* The kid says, BEFORE I'M EVEN DONE CLOSING THE DRAWER: "Can I have my drink now?" "Sure." I reply. "If you'd wait a god damn second, maybe I'd give it to you WITHOUT you having to ask me, you stupid little shit..."

 

2:30 pm: "Only half an hour remains... Just half an hour... Please, God, let these thirty minutes go fast..."

 

3:00 pm: "I'M DONE I'M DONE I'M DONE! Praise da Lord!! Now I don't have to be Cameron for another 12 hours..."

That didn't seem THAT awful.

It wasn't. Today was just an average, not very special day. Except for the fact that I had to work drive-thru for a bit. That sucked.

I think I make it sound like it's a worse job than it really is. It sucks, but it's not terrible. At least I make money.

What if i came and called you sir, would you still get mad xD?

 

When ever i eat at McDonald i just tell them what i want and leave them to do their job. There is no need to be in their face asking if the food is ready.

Of course not. I'd know you were just joking.

You should make rage videos...or video game rage videos...somehow get rid of all that anger inside of you. Once I picked up an old Nintendo game that was bat-shit insanely hard. And I was cursing at the TV like a sailor, but after 8 hours of struggle I beat it...and it felt really good to let all the frustration out that was caused by school, etc. You should try it.

I'm hamming it up for these posts. I'm not nearly as angry at work as these posts would have you believe. These posts are made for one reason: Comedy. Although none of this is made up, it is greatly exaggerated.

I don't know, I guess I'm just too naive then, but I didn't really laugh at it. I know how the things you describe feel like so I'm genuinely feeling sorry for you...and I guess you're telling me I shouldn't?

First of all, what's wrong with being called sir?

 

Second of all, isn't Cameron your name? Why don't you want to be called that?

You if anyone should be aware of why.

Don't worry about me. Work just makes me a little grumpy, that's all.

I eexaggerate on my blog posts about work too, though the messed up part is I only do it a little bit. It sounds like I am ready to have a heart attack a lot of times and on some days it sure feels that way but ranting about it does help get the rage out a bit.

So if that random customer called you Ma'am, you would've gotten mad (at least as mad)?

No.
