I did, for about two months. It was a job, but it wasn’t a very good one. It paid the bills.

I delivered pizzas once and worked drive through at a fazolis when I was 20. I didn’t think nothing of it at the time, I was just happy to have a job. nowadays it seems a little below me. I would be embarrassed to work there I think.

the reason I ask is, im looking for something part time and we have a lot of fast food restaurants that always need people, im considering it. although i’d like to find something else, like stocking in a grocery or something

No- because I couldn’t cope with the dexterity and speed needed to do the job. I’d end up getting totally confused.

I am willing, but not able. I get fired from those kinds of jobs pretty quickly because I am just not fast enough. I work as fast as I can, but I’m not fast enough. The only fast food job I can keep is delivering pizza. I’d rather dig ditches than work fast food. I’d only be willing to try fast food if there were no alternative.

it’s funny how stressful it can be…for basically minimum wage. they’re lucky to have employees in the first place.

I’m not too proud to work any job if I need to. A job in an opportunity to meet and impress the people I need to is order to get a better job.

Fast food workers beat their brains out for a pittance.

I would do it if I could, it would be a stable income.
But I’m not sure about the stress and the constant beeping noises.

Can you impress people with ineptitude? (Talking about me and any job that would be fast paced).

I worked in the fast food business for a short while, pre SZ days.
It was tough work but I enjoyed it.

It’s a job.

I wouldn’t be able to handle working at a fast food joint now - no way.
Too fast paced, and I wouldn’t be able to work the cash register, and deal with the public.

No job is below anybody who wants to work. Some jobs are a better fit than others, but if you need a job, don’t feel ashamed to have one.

At the beginning. Those who show initiative and talent are promoted upwards quickly enough.

I used to dig ditches for a fiber optic crew working as a contractor for southern belle back in the eighties…man it was easy because everything is sand down in florida where I was working…got chased by a machete by one of the immigrants working with us because I gave a prehistoric shark tooth necklace to the younger son. machismo…he never did it again but man did I run when I saw him coming at me.

I’m sure there are jobs that aren’t fast-paced, but they probably aren’t as common.

Long hours, minimal pay, gross working conditions…
