    bro, my junior year in high school i worked 70-80 hours/wk at denny's, i was the top ranked in my area for tips but it was horrible, after a month i was doing cashier work, serving, busing and some managing all at once and the tips were still never more than 10%, not to mention people would bvtch about every little thing or change their order several times trying to get some free food because if you slip up and forget to put their food on a warming plate while the food item is being changed/recooked and they get any cold food then it comes off of the server's pay

    I worked in the meat department of a supermarket for 3 years and let me tell you, it is amazing how rude people will be to a man with a foot long knife standing 6 inches away.How I didn't kill somebody I will never know.Though I did get in trouble for getting into arguements with a good few people.Old women ARE by FAR the worst out there.They start fights just to have somebody to talk to a lot of the time.

    it did sometimes, but i'm really laid back and thrive on stressful situations so the fast pace was enjoyable

    though working from 330pm to 6am, then going to school at 730am till 3pm, rinse and repeat got old, but i still found time to workout since the YMCA was about 100yards from dennys so i just went there on my breaks

    thanks bro, that means alot, though i'm soooo happy we have a gold's now that's open 24/7, before that the earliest anyone opened was 530, now i love it because when i have to study for labs and such for 12-16 hours at a time i can take a break and go to the gym at 2-3am, plug my ipod into the receiver(because no one is ever there) and crank that shvt up, it's amazing and refreshes me from the studying

    ya'll should try it if you can, that pounding metal and techno gets you so pumped when you can feel it

    How was your diet?

    See thats why I hate getting jobs, I am probably going to get one this semester working at the gym at my college training people, but I am always worried about my diet. If I dont get my meal in at the EXACT TIME I am supposed to be I start freaking out and think I am shrinking by the second. All because of image disorder

    it was okay, i talked to the chef and for 3$ a piece he would make me 8oz of chicken with veggies or brown rice and put it in the back, so i would just have 3-4 of those and then get some for the day, or omelettes with veggies in them
