I got a job at taco hut in order to make some extra dough. I only worked for a day. Four hours, in fact. This is the story of why three cute teenage girls made me quit.

So, things started easy. People came through the drive through in their cars. They order a burrito or a combo or something simple. It was easy to follow the motions. 'Would you like a drink?' 'Would you like to try our new Cinna-Puffs?' Then they pay. I give them their stuff. Simple.

It's never that simple. Nothing is ever as it should be in a drive-thru.

You see, it wasn't the three girls that made him quit. It was the fact his manager put him on drive-thru before he was ready. You gotta stay on front a bit, then simply wear a headset to get used to the crazies that come through and THEN start running a drive-thru.

It was really his manager's fault for poor shift placement.

What a beautiful late-night treat, Priest. I haven't read Damien's contribution yet, but I'm sure it won't hold a candle to this. :raritywink:

No, but for real though, both you and Damien worked super hard to get these out in 24 hours. Good job you guys.

Okay but now I want tacos and I have no tacos why would you do this to me priest why.

Ask crystal, i heard she got tacos.

I pity those people who work in drive-thru.

As a guy who worked at Taco Bell for two months as the night-shift drive-thru guy (After a month I was promoted to shift lead, but I still worked the window), I can attest that there were nights where I wanted to do just this.

Actually, when I quit there, it was on a night sort-of like this (I counted twelve cars in a row with multiple $15+ orders each, and we were short staffed). The 15 cents above minimum pay for being a shift lead wasn't worth it anymore, I now work as a drive-thru guy at Wendy's and make 70 cents more per hour than I did as a shift lead at TBell.

It;s been a few years since then, but I appreciate your pity. It is well-placed.

equine horses

That's a repetitively redundant phrasal series of lexical words.

and that was the moment Priest decided to become a fimfiction writer

We suppose it could have been equinoid humans?Or maybe equine humanoids?

This isn't low-fat chipotle ranch?!"

Meh. Low-fat is full of sugar anyway


This was good, hilarious even.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA :rainbowwild:

I never worked drive-thru, but as a previous fast food cook who worked alone 90% of the time in the kitchen, I can attest to the fact that fast food is fundamentally terrible and the pay isn't even worth it. I got a job planting trees and made more in under a month doing that than I did working for 4 months in fast food.

Nice little short story, though.

So why did he quit his job?

Ha! The Dazzlings still cause discord without their amulets.

That was cute!

"IT'S TACO TUESDAY YOU GUYS!" the girl in the back screamed. I took off my headset and checked to see of my eardrum was bleeding, since now I had an ear-piercing ringing running through my skull.

Oofity and ouch 😰

This. This single event. This bane of my existence. The indecision of an over-excited taco enthusiast rattled my eardrums for at least five minutes. The cars were piling up. People were honking. My manager came over. I wanted to cry. I wanted to walk right out. The never ending monotone groan of her held note was ruining my life.

Talk about some serious bad luck. 😬
