    Worked at a hamburger joint that was similar to a fast food outlet. Quit after 3 days because it was a split shift and I was living out of town.

    No, but I sold popcorn, candy, and soft drinks at a theatre while in high school.

  • My first job was making hamburgers.  I had that job when I was 15 and 16.  The fast food joint where I worked wasn't a building, it was a trailer next to a gas station and truck stop.  The trailer was painted like a USA flag, and it had a flashing red sign on top of it that read Hamburguesas.  The foods on the menu were hamburgers, fries, milk shakes and soda.  The choices for the hamburger toppings were cheddar cheese, lettuce, onions, grilled onions, tomatoes, pickles, mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard and Thousand Island.  The milk shakes were vanilla, chocolate and strawberry.  The soda was Coca-Cola.

    The owner of the trailer had another employee besides me, but I had more customers when I worked alone.  They liked my hamburgers more.  They told me that mine tasted better.

  • I made the best hamburgers.  I asked the customers how much they wanted their hamburgers to be cooked, and I put butter on the buns and toasted them.  The other employee never did that.  One time, he dropped a hamburger on the floor.  He picked it up and gave it to the customer.  We had a reputation from that.  When my shift was after the other employee's shift, I would go to work and I would see that he had no customers.  When I started work, the customers all came to me.
