Does anybody have any good cafe or diners jobs for little to no experienced teens, I’m still a teenager and have applied to over 40 jobs on indeed and I’m so done with big corps ghosting me anything in the Tacoma, yelm or puyallup WA area is doable for me

I got a McDonald's job interview in two hours and I'm kind of nervous that I might not get in 😭💀what are the questions they ask?

When I worked at McDonald’s in 2018-2020, we were able to get “crew meals” on our break and it was one medium combo meal and the manager could come up and approve it. Then it changed to where there was a limit of like $6 where you can’t go over that. I heard now it’s only 30% off?? 🤔 because another rule McDonald’s had was you were not allowed to bring outside food into work like my coworker brought in chipotle and was told that’s not allowed. So she had to take it to her car. It was the same thing to when I worked at a pizza place in 2021 where it first was free then they changed it to 30% off. If you’re not getting those anymore, that’s really ridiculous. I work retail now but I keep hearing that some restaurants don’t provide their employees with meals anymore. They make a billion dollars if not more and you get paid minimum wage but you have to pay to eat their food even though work there?? Even at Sephora they give us free training product.

I'm curious how many hours per week an owner operator is required to work and I'm curious to see if a chik fil a opportunity is even worth it in the long run

Hi so i had an interview last Saturday and met with the gm for a cook position and told them about my experience at taco bell which was my first job this year from april to july and then he told me to come back yesterday and i met with the kitchen manager and i told her the same thing i told the gm and that im available everyday and she also told my pay would be 15.00 an hour but she also said she has two interviews left and that i would get a call Monday knowing if i got the job or not does me having experience favor me of getting the job I'm jus wondering because i gracefully need this job.

okay i want to know if normal for everyone to have drive thru crushes. and by that i mean you working in fast food and you have a regular that comes almost every day in the drive thru so thats your drive thru crush basically. now with that obviously you know that the interaction last no more than 5 minutes if even. anyways i basically have this drive thru crush that comes everyday and every time we talk it just improves more. at first i didnt even look at him in that kinda way but then it kinda just became that. he started coming into the lobby (i personally feel its to see me but yk🙄). i dont want to give all the details but long story short. this is the first guy that i feel like i want to ask a man for his number, but personally its not really my thing bc i prefer the guy to do the first move essentially. but i feel like i also could be overthinking all this too obviously.

Is it like an insult to get rejected by a fast food joint when you have a college education?

i just did my first shift at wendys yesterday, which was a mess. my trainer was just so out of it and mumbled the whole time. im working front register. WTF DO I DO?? is there anywhere i cam practice the pos system? idk how to make any of the frostys, idk what my duties are, idk what im doing😭 .my trainer was just making me follow him throughout the day, not explaining shit. my next shift is on sunday opening shift, and they said im gonna be on my own. genuinely wtf do i do. idk. im going insane bc im just gonna look stupid and just stand there. how do i know what to do? they dont give like a checklist or anything, and ik that the tasks for closing shift (what i did today) are not the same as opening. pls someone help, tips or advice 🙏🏽🙏🏽 im begging yallpls! can u guys give me like a detailed rundown on what u do at work, or on a usual shift? working at front register btw

I just got the limpest, soggiest fries from my local 5 Guys and I voiced my disappointment since they were the worst I'd ever got from any 5 Guys. They said that's how they are supposed to be made and if you want crispy then you have to ask for it. Very polite and professional and dropped a new batch immediately but had me confused since we've gone to the chain since they were new to the area and it's one of my wife's favorite burgers.

People I talk to always complain about soggy fries and until the last couple times I just thought it was just them taking it home or ordering delivery where it steams in the bag. We got these and ate there so it was not that.

First day at Burger King in UK tomorrow 😭 someone please give me some tips, I’m proper nervous haha. It’s my first ever job 😭

I just got hired at my chick fil a this Monday as foh member. I told them I wasn’t sure when I can do my orientation aince I started school this week. They said that was okay however I am able to do it this weekend. How can I contact them and let them know? How long does orientation last?

I was ordering food the other day on the app and after I got there the worker asked if everything was correct on the screen after I gave them the code. So my question is can I modify orders at the drive thru after I put everything in the app? Mostly because the app doesn't have mac sauce i can add to my mcdouble.

I’ve been trying to land a job for the longest while, I’ve gotten a couple interviews, one at McDonalds, where I thought it went really well, I answered the questions, filled out a form and was told to send a reference letter, but I haven’t heard back at all.

I also applied to Zumiez, where I gave my resume and did a mini interview, but I also haven’t heard back.

Both places told me that they were looking to hire for fall, but as that season is approaching, I’m wondering if I’ll have any luck :(

If anyone has any knowledge of any kind that would be awesome.

I’m 17 and I’ve just recently started working at McDonald’s. I’m not going back to school in the fall so I am available full time but after my 3rd shift which im completing this week my training will be over. So far with training im only getting booked 1 day a week. I’m wondering if I have to ask a manager about that or if they will start to give me more hours once I’ve stopped my training? I’m not sure this is my first job if anyone can help thanks!

A popeyes fast food chain near me had a hiring sign on the front door. Walked in and handed them my resume. Had 3 experiences on my resume. 2 of them were true (1 was an internship and the other was a volunteer position) but I lied about the one in the middle. How screwed am I if I get an interview? Do they even check or care? I just need a job

I had an open interview at Blaze Pizza on Monday (like 3 days ago) and was wondering when I would get a call back. I was also wondering if I should call and check in because I would rather know I didn’t get the job rather than just waiting for nothing.
