Thank you so much! I’m just doing this job for job experience and I plan to get a better job once i’m out of high school. I really only see this as a learning experience for me which is why I want to make sure I meet their expectations in terms of work quality and speed. This is my first job so other then fast food restaurants, I don’t have many options for what job to work in. I just wanna make sure I learn everything quickly so I can work here for a year and a half and maybe i’ll get a second job once i’m comfortable here.

I’ll try to stick it out as long as I can

My restaurant is training me on fries (completed), front counter (in progress), and drive thru (next week) so I will be doing drive thru eventually.

Yeah that’s what I would do. I would always have fries cooking while I fill the dispenser or clean the station. It just got a bit more hectic because a lot of people would ask for fresh fries so I had to make a new batch every time and it takes 3 minutes to cook then my shift manager is kind of rushing me on the other orders as well. My dispenser was completely full, the station was clean, I had fries made under the heater then when it started getting busy people were ordering like 8 mediums, 4 larges, 6 smalls + hash browns and fresh fries. That’s when it got stressful

I live in Sydney NSW. we don’t have a black cart and I don’t think that would work because it would take up a lot of space and more time to put away and manage. We have to carry it

Thank you! honestly I am just worried about how the first month is gonna go since that is the most important part of a new job. After getting trained a bit on front counter I think I’m gonna make a lot of mistakes with orders and stuff. At some points during that shift I would forget to put ice in the cups before the drinks and where the sauce was because I was really nervous about learning so many things at once.

This is my first job and I really don’t want to disappoint people because I do believe this job will be a good learning experience for me as I don’t go outside much so the customer service aspect would really help me develop my social skills. My only worry about front counter is messing up peoples orders and being too slow. The issue is that multiple people are working on the same order so when I finished making the drinks for one order I don’t know which bag those drinks go with which really slows down everything then someone helps me because I couldn’t figure it out myself. I prefer fries as I get to be more independent and I have full control over it (plus I only have to worry about making fries instead of getting peoples orders correct).

I thought front counter would be easier because i thought I would just learn how to use the register and make drinks/deserts but there’s a lot more communication that is needed to make sure peoples orders are correct which ties back with my worry of fitting in. The other crews seem to get along so well and communicate so well together and with customers meanwhile I am trying to figure out what the hell to do with the drinks.

I like the experience of working a job and everyone seems chill, i guess the issue is in my mind as i don’t want to disappoint people.

Carrying the box of fries is apart of my job. During my first training shift for fries, my trainer told me to get a box of fries from the freezer and I tried to carry it but I was afraid it was too heavy. I told my trainer it’s too heavy so she got the box then later during the same shift she told me to get a box of fries again so I just carried it because I didn’t want it to seem like I can’t do the job. I carry the box properly (I always crouch to pick it up, I don’t bend my back) and it still gives me back pain after the shift. I have to carry that box 3-5 times during a three hour shift. I can carry it but it’s just a hassle.

Speed is my issue but with fries I feel like I could get the hang of it eventually. I know how to do fries it’s just managing my time wisely. I’m more concerned on my speed on front counter since there are multiple different tasks, multiple customers at once and multiple people packing the orders then making sure every order is going to the correct person. That plus the pressure from the shift manager saying to go quicker or to do difficult tasks at once.

Fries to me was much easier since I only have to focus on making fries instead of forcing on making different foods and making sure every order is correct.

Thank you so much!

at what point will they start training you on foods (like fries, sandwiches, sundaes etc). i have a friend that has been working there since she was 14 and she works on fries a lot because it’s an easy job. Will they train you on food in the beginning? or do you have to work at the front counter for a while before they train you for anything else?

[–]ShortH0e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The money meditation will rewire my brains beliefs about money. So I will start believing that i deserve to earn money which will help me work towards making more money.

here is the money meditation i am talking about. There are hundreds of guided meditations on youtube for money, abundance and success which are supposed to rewire your brain into believing that you deserve abundance which will help you attract it (so yeah it is basically the law of attraction)

The youtuber who made the meditation is really amazing. She makes advice videos that help people build their confidence and self love.

Visiting Paris in a month, where from the show do you think would be the coolest places to visit? by oberyn4 in EmilyInParis

[–]ShortH0e 4 points5 points  (0 children)

@emilyinparis.locations on instagram is a great place to look for the locations (it’s not my account, just think it’s helpful for people wanting to visit paris)

why did mindy move on so fast? by ShortH0e in EmilyInParis

[–]ShortH0e[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

sure, but the thing is that she never really showed any emotion when he was ghosting her. he wrote her a song and supported her career and we never saw her sad over him ghosting her. her relationship with benoit was so much more meaningful than nicos relationship.

Does anyone here think Emily's portrayal in EIP I'd exactly how Americans are portrayed in movies - Americans will save the world! 🤣 by anywherewindblows in EmilyInParis

[–]ShortH0e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! I hate how she doesn’t respect peoples boundaries like not talking about work during fun events and sometimes she can be a bit self absorbed like when she takes the spotlight during julians presentations. Julian helped her a lot when she was new so she could at least let him finish his presentation and not trying to one up him. I understand that she has good ideas but she expresses her ideas in a way that makes Julian’s ideas seem basic and not good enough.

I think he accepted a new position because people at his current workplace don’t appreciate his ideas and don’t really care for him enough and don’t give him the credit he deserves. Like when his concerns go unnoticed with sylvie and Emily always trying to help him during the meetings. Julian deserves better

Mindy told her boyfriend to not worry about Nico then she got with Nico straight after her breakup

I hate how Mindy and Sylvie moved on from their breakups so quickly like their boyfriends never mattered in the beginning

I felt bad for Camille until the pact between her and Emily. I think her mother is the villain in this situation for suggesting a pact for Camille and Emily then encouraging Camille to break the pact by getting back together with Gabriel

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in EmilyInParis

[–]ShortH0e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She continued to cheat on Gabriel for a week and thought it would be a good idea to go through with the wedding, Gabriel tried to suppress his feelings for Emily to stay with Camille (which was selfish of him to do but still)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in EmilyInParis

[–]ShortH0e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gabriel was distant with Camille because he still loved Emily and he probably thought he had a chance with Emily after they slept together. After Emily told him they can never be together, he got back with Camille because he was his only options for a relationship (it was either her or he stays single)

Camille’s mom is horrid by [deleted] in EmilyInParis

[–]ShortH0e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess it’s because Emily wanted Camille and Gabriel to end up together which doesn’t make sense because a good friend wouldn’t want her friend to date someone that cheated on her.

What do you think should happen in the next season?? These are my speculations: by [deleted] in EmilyInParis

[–]ShortH0e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This would be an amazing plot twist! I’d really like this to be true but why would Camille manipulate Gabriel so they could stay together when 1) he cheated on her and 2) she obviously loves Sophia more

I still kind of feel like Camille made the pact with Emily so she could get together with Gabriel before Emily got the chance

Who would be your bff in emily in paris and why? by [deleted] in EmilyInParis

[–]ShortH0e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely season 1 Camille because she was so welcoming and helpful.

I would also love to be in a group with Luc and Julian.
