The Fries, They BURN!
So, last night I started work at the Hot Dog Shoppe, and let me tell you, fries hurt. Not only does the grease burn if the fries miss the basket, but the fries BURNed most when I was trying to put them into packages. That little tool that I had to use to pick up the fries is not as easy to use as I thought it was. The tool I use is like a funnel, except the funnel is flat and open. I scoop the fries into the top, and they're supposed to come slowly out the bottom and into the bowl or bag that I'm putting them into. Unfortunately, it's not that simple. The fries fall out in every direction, because it's not a closed funnel, as I have already said. So, while I'm holding the bowl or the bag that I'm putting fries in, most of the fries are falling off the sides of the funnel and onto my HANDS! Yeah, that hurts. They're REALLY hot fries.
Otherwise, we're working towards our first paper in journalism class starting today. Our first deadline is next friday, a week from tomorrow, but I've finished my two articles already. I'm going to have them checked tomorrow for "substance" and errors, correct them, and hopefully have them in by Monday.
I am officially bogged down with homework this evening, and yet here I am, waisting valuable time on this blasted computer. I got a rediculous assignment today, that should have been due Monday, but of course we're not going to take our time, so it's due tomorrow. The good news is that it's only a one hundred point assignment, so if I screw it up, it's not like I'll be losing a lot of points. You see, that's sarcasm.
Well, that's my life, mostly. Yeah, I know, boring.
Later,
Joshua

Post a CommentThis is really good to know in case I ever get a job that involves cooking fries. That’s cool that you started your new job I hope you like it. I also hope that it doesn’t interfere with scouts. Maybe you will make some new friends? I know I never did at any of the jobs I’ve done haha.
Also I am really sorry I didn’t mail you that paper for Fall Ceremonial. I ran up to flag plaza during my half hour break in the rain only to find that the only people who were there were the incompetent people who work in the scout shop. Incompetents working for the Boy Scouts, why am I not surprised? Anyways they had no idea what I was talking about and finally one of them told me to check the website. A lot of help they were, it was such a waste of time I was really angry. So I’m sorry but I really tried unfortunately I failed. The form is on the website, so in case you didn’t already find it, check the website. If you don’t know what the website is, its www.Enda57.org
I hope I see you next weekend
