That is Life

The only thing no one remembers to tell you when you work fast food: when someone says you work a certain job it does not mean you work that certain job.  When I work on lobby, which someone basically says is cleaning, what it really means is that I am the only one whose job everyone else deems unimportant.  Because of this, one working lobby will quite frequently  be working an half hour or more over time.  I originally nearly always worked an hour overtime.  The reason for this is that I was the one person who took  up the slack for everyone's jobs, because everyone else deemed my job to be the easiest job there, and the endless cycle causing me to work overtime quite often.  Because of this, on days I do lobby, I also quite frequently do drive-thru, cash register, and packing at different times of the day for other people to go on break, usually resulting in me not getting a break.  The one thing one will get as a fast food worker is under-appreciation, but the worst part is the most under-appreciation goes to those that have the hardest jobs or work the hardest.  As the French say it "C'est la vie," or "That is Life."
