Would be fabulous. I work at a fast food restaurant and it is pretty much like what Sue Ellen experienced, only the people are complete a-holes. The place drives me insane. I would never call them when I need help, because they would never help me. I wish I could meet a guy like Bryan who knows what it's like.
"Tool up, honey bunny. It's time to get bad guys."
Do you get to clean the back-fats and scrub the floor with a really-fun squeegie?
shareI don't know what you mean by "back-fats" but I do clean the floors, but not even with a fun squeegie.
"Tool up, honey bunny. It's time to get bad guys."
I don't know what I mean either. Didn't they call them "back-fats"? (or something like that?)
I've seen this movie a million times, and I can never tell what they say for sure.
And ScreenQueen, you are forgetting the most important thing...
To put on your happy face!!!
lol I have no idea. But I have to wash the containers they put all their greasey patties in, the trays, oily spatulas, etc. It's all washed in a single big sink that gets dirty fast and they fill it up so high the water always slops all over me. It's hell.
Haha I'll try to put on a happy face tomorrow! But the sight of the place would probably slap it right off me.
"Tool up, honey bunny. It's time to get bad guys."
That sounds like "back-fats" to me (or something REALLY close to it anyway)
I just hope that your boss isn't as annoying as the one in this movie!
Oh he's annoying, just not in the same way.
And that's back-fats?? Well, I learnt something today!
"Tool up, honey bunny. It's time to get bad guys."
No, I didn't mean that what you described sounded like "back-fats" (Remember--I have no clue what they are or if that's what they're even called)
I meant that what you have to do seems equally as disgusting.
I just hope that you at least get to sneak home some free food once in a while!
Ooooooooh right. I do get to sneak home free food, but I hardly do it because the food is so gross. They look like they could kill someone.
"Tool up, honey bunny. It's time to get bad guys."
L-O-friggin-L!!!
Where do you work at? I need to know so that I'll be sure to never go there.
I think it's fat vats lol.
shareOh, is that what they were?
Thanks Dizz!
(I still have no idea what "fat vats" are though)
I'm a big dork and googled fat vats. Apparently they are a type of fryer that uses shortening. Learn something new everyday!
shareYes thanks DizzyLizard! And I work at Hungry Jack's. I think that's Burger King if you're in America. If you are in America.
"Tool up, honey bunny. It's time to get bad guys."
Yep, I'm American. So why doesn't Burger King just keep the name "Burger King" everywhere? That's odd.
I RARELY eat there, and after talking to you, now I know better to eat there ever again.
And Dizz, if you're a big dork, then I'm gonna try harder to be dorkier because I want to be more like you. Thanks for all the info!
Beware the fat vats!!!
I'm American, too...and I remember seeing Mcd's when I was in England and Italy but not BK now that you mentioned it.
I really don't know that much; just love Google. :)
Well Dizz, you are dang good at Google!
I should've googled "back fats" in the first place, but I don't know if Goog would've known what I was talking about, so it's a good thing that you knew what it was REALLY called!
Well, I'd like to chit-chat with ya more, but I really must be going...
All this talk has reminded me that I've got some major "back fat" to work off!!!
lmao! Nice talking to you all!
And remember: fast food is evil!
"Tool up, honey bunny. It's time to get bad guys."
Evil? Is it THAT bad?
You must REALLY hate your job!
You need to quit--Get out while you can!
Hi, can I take your order?
Yeah, can I get a double-chin, some blubber, some cottage-cheese thighs, and a ba-donk-a-donk butt?
Would you like the double-blubber? It's on special right now for a super-low price
Sure!
Oh hell I thought you were leaving so I said bye!
Of course I hate my job, the place is a hole! They always go on about their OS&H standards but there's always crap on the floor, I slipped twice on oil and both times I bruised my arm from grabbing the bench too fast and hard. The other guys just fool around with no consideration for the environment at all. The managers never teach me anything so I have to watch and learn myself, and then they yell at me for not doing something right because a)nobody taught me, or b) I was watching someone who wasn't even doing their job properly and decided to cut corners to save time so they can play around afterwards. Seriously I have never met a worse group of people in my life. And yes, it is that bad, especially when you spend hours looking at how they cook the stuff. It really puts you off for life. I want to quit but I can't find another job. I'm looking but I can only quit if something else comes up - TBH I can't afford to just walk out, as much as I would really like to.
Nice quote btw! That sure would teach 'em.
"Tool up, honey bunny. It's time to get bad guys."
Wow, I really got you talking there. That was a good spill.
It does sound like a pretty-bad situation. I think that you need to find out where they keep their petty cash, "borrow" some, quit, and that oughtta last you a while until you can find a better working-situation.
And if they ever tell you to do the dishes, take them outside and shoot at them, and when you're through, go back in and say "Dishes are done, man!"
My dialogue at the bottom was from a Subway Sandwiches commercial that you may not be familiar with (as it probably didn't run over there). They're trying to convince people how much healthier their food is over the burger-chains, so they do lots of funny ads like that. Our conversation reminded me of it, so I decided to put it in.
Yeah, sorry. That was a big rant.
Haha, I really wish I could do all those things! It all looked so fun in the movie. But such is reality. And I've never seen that commercial, actually. We rarely see American commericals.
Well anyway, it was nice talking to you :) And I mean it.
"Tool up, honey bunny. It's time to get bad guys."
It was nice talking to you too, ScreenQueener!
Now get to work on those fat vats!
awwwww... sounds like fastfood love.
Soggy, break out the Mustache! (double size it!)
"I'm a vehemently anti-nuclear, paranoid mess, harbouring a strange obsession with radioactive sheep."
Ya know--I DID have a mustache, but I must've lost it. I just woke up one morning, and it was gone, and I swear that it was right there on my face when I went to bed the night before.
The sad thing is that now I can't get ANYWHERE with the ladies.
(Not that I ever got anywhere with the ladies when I had the 'stache--But it sure felt damn good to have a cool one and pretend that they all dug it anyway!)
That happened to me once. I had a two large orders of McDonald french fries the nighte before. The doctor said it was because of the acid in the Veg. Oil they use. I think it's because the deranged fast food employee spat in my fries.
"I'm a vehemently anti-nuclear, paranoid mess, harbouring a strange obsession with radioactive sheep."
I was wondering where that quote at the bottom came from cause I KNEW it sounded familiar! Lol....yup, I remember that Subway commercial, lol
shareI have worked in fast food before, and I have met guys that were that sweet and nice, who were working in a crappy place like that...the main difference is that they aren't usually that cute. It's fine by me though, I will take wonderful and sweet over rich and perfect looking any day. I met my husband working in a grocery store and he's the nicest, most amazing guy ever. Ya just never know where Mr. Wonderful will pop up lol.
