Working in food service sucks. I worked at Cold Stone Creamery for a year and a half and have since lost hope for the future of all man kind. If you don't know what Cold Stone is, I'll tell you. There's a case full of plain ice cream, and jars full of almost every kind of candy, nut, and fruit you can think off. Except for pralines. We don't have pralines so stop asking. So anyway, you just pick a flavor of ice cream, and we mix stuff into it. Not a difficult concept, right?
Apparently it is...
After standing in the lobby for 5 minutes staring at the walls a customer asked me "What do I do?" With your life? You could start by pulling your head out of your ass...
Strawberry Banana Rendezvous. That's a fun one. It's pronounced 'rän-di-"vü you assmunch. Did you grow up under a rock?
I know it's a tough one... Germanchokolatekake. Sound it out.
Chocolate Devestation? Nice try. It's "devotion." Try keeping a stright face with these people. You either want to laugh or punch them. Usually punch them. In the throat.
If you call "Cooking Minster" "Cookie Minister" one more time I'm going to poke you in the eye. It isn't going to preach to you.
Cookie Doughn't You Want Some? Dough + n't. Get it? Enough said. Stop calling it a doughnut or I'll kill your dog.
If you want a Rocky Road Trip without the almonds... or the marshmallows... just ask for some goddamn chocolate ice cream. It's less words.
Your fat, obnoxious kid needs a spanking and a salad. Not our biggest size of mint and cotton candy ice cream with reese's, m&ms, snickers, sprinkles, and butterfinger in a chocolate dipped cone. You're not doing him any favors, trust me.
I can't tell you how many people have asked to taste my sweet cream. And once they realized what they said then get embarassed.
Thanks for the tip. No, I'm not going to sing for you because my manager isn't here to make me. Get fucked.
The sizes are right in front of your goddamn face.
Don't hand me your sample spoon. I don't want it. Put it in the trash.
I'm not going to hold your cone while you pay. That's what the cone holder right next to your hand is for...
Speaking of the cone holder... I set someone's cone in there while she went to the bathroom and I watched another lady look at it then poke it. She looked around really quick and saw me looking at her like "What the hell are you doing?" and she said "I thought it was fake!" Yeah, that's how good I made my ice cream look...
Anyway, back to helping you next time you go to order ice cream...
The stone is cold. Not hot. Yes, I've been asked that... It doesn't do anything besides be a cold surface to put your ice cream on while stuff gets mixed into it.
"Is this all you have?" Oh, I'm sorry. Your fat ass needs more then 18 flavors of ice cream and nearly 40 mix-ins? I'll get right on that...
I know the ice cream is ridiculously expensive. You should have looked at the board before you got 4 mix-ins. On that same note, don't get mad at me when you let your kid order and they get 6 mix-ins in an ice cream that's bigger then their head. Anyway, do I look like I control the prices? I'm wearing and apron and a visor... so I'll give you one guess.
No, it's not gellato.
It's not yogurt either.
And really, shoudln't be this goddamn complicated.

I went to a ColdStone Creamery once, and was indeed intimidated by the enormous menu of trite puns, the evil icy stares from the girl with the mixin' paddles, and of course the 14 morbidly obese people in line in front of me.
I got a small "what the fuck ever" and never went back.

Please. Your store gives ice cream "cute" names and you expect people to pander to the trite ploy? Hell, they probably enjoy butchering the names just to piss you off.
Arby's pisses me off. They take horseradish sauce, put it in a packet, and write "Horsey" on it. Then they expect me to ask for "Horsey" sauce instead of horseradish. What the ghey? More like, what the bestiality? That is fucking nasty. I hate them... and I hate you too.

Customers were a small percentage of my job as far as I was concerned. I liked my co workers, my boss and all the other stuff I had to do... Building/decorating cakes, making ice cream blah blah blah. And I didn't not like all customers. I like your average guy who is able to ORDER A FUCKING ICE CREAM. It's the dip shits who are oblivious to the world around them that I have a problem with.
I'm going to a community college, I'll be a Jr in the fall. I'm taking general/business classes. I'm working in a real estate office because I want to. I'll hopefully be getting my license soon. I don't need a degree, but I want one.
I'd say middle class white chick. I live at home. I'm not a whore, but I don't spend much time at home. No boyfriend, so we'll just throw that part out.

You didn't like the idiots that came in to order ice cream, yet you liked your job? That's like a waiter saying, "I love being a waiter, I just hate the people that come into the restaurant." And a few fucking idiots have said that on Uber.
You're a fucking moron. If you hate the customers, the very heart of the business, the center of the universe for a business, then how can you like working there? Now, let's say that Cold Stone had a giant wherehouse in back and you love working with the forklift in the cold storage and then they moved you to make ice cream, then I completely understand. But it's not like that.
Now a few real questions for you.
If you are going to college then why are you working in a real estate office? Do you actually need a college degree to work in a real estate office?
If you went to college and are finished with it, why are you now working in a real estate office?
What school did you go to, what did you study and what are your plans? Do you plan on staying in the real estate office?
Now if you are black and born poor, then I feel for you. The impresison get is upper middle class white chick who still has a bedroom at home and comes over now and then just to be a little girl if only for a few hours to escape her whorish real life. You're trying to make a better life for youself because your boyfriend is a pothead with a band and he promises to take care of you when his first CD is finished. How close am I?

Blondie - you should pay attention. This is a rare event right here. Life will probably never be nice to you again. It's pretty obvious that Life doesn't favor the foolish, the ill-prepared, the incapable. You shoud be aware of that, and do the most your 95 IQ allows to learn a skill outside the "Would you like fries with that?" industry.
Since you probably don't get it, I'll just tell you that I stopped talking about Life101 the Uberuser between "...again." and "It's...".

It took you two fucking years to leave? When did you realize you hated it? Week one or week two hundred and four? If you say anything lower then "Week two hundred and four" then you are a complete idiot and college isn't going to do anything for you. Don't like it? Quit. Leave. GTF outta there. Why stay?
Why do people go to college? Unless you are trying to be a doctor, lawyer, etc. then it's uncalled for. I have a lot of friends who have spent more then half of their life in school and they have shitty jobs and little money. College doesn't get you a good job with nice money. It's brains. I have a grade school education, I can hardly spell yet I currently have 11 employees. In the winter time I have 30+ employees (roofing). I make more money then most of my friends and they are all very highly educated.
I've been self employed my entire life. I don't like the idea of making money for anybody else but me. Starting a business is incredibly easy for me, I guess we all have our own talents. I'm sure you can make a better strawberry cheese cake ice cream then me.

Here's a thought- tell your dumbass former employer not to have 5 or more teenagers working a shift with not an adult in sight, so that one can wash windows, one can talk on a phone, two can LIEK OMG YOO NOE talk to each other, leaving exactly ONE poor girl mixing a line of customers some fucking ice cream. I ordered a cake- in advance- for a birthday, all I wanted to do was pay for it. I had to watch it melt while I stood in line with the mouthbreathers and the 6 Japanese exchange students as they decided on the 5 toppings they wanted in their Frozen Heart Attack.

I honestly feel for you, but I can't feel pity for ANYBODY who works at a minimum wage job for so long.
Move back in with your folks.
Study.
Pray really hard.
Use your fucking brain and try to forget what year the war of 1812 was started and how to properly spell chrisanthenium, you're never going to use that shit.
Read over some of my older posts and start a business for yourself or change your fucking attitude and get a raise.
It's really NOT that difficult.

It's not an actual rule, but it shows that you haven't spent time actually contributing to this site at all before posting.

People like doctors, lawyers, engineers, business owners, builders, movers, shakers, people who get things done...

I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that those AREN'T the people who can't order ice cream. It's all the other idiots out there... How many smart, nice people come into a place like that a day? Uh, not many. How many idiots? A lot.

Yeah, I've had that happen. This really old guy came in and asked for a chocolate milkshake and vanilla side car. And pretty much yelled what it was at me when I said I didn't know what that was. Turns out it's just a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of the milkshake...

I work at a sports store and I hate it so hard, have a +2 for sympathy.
Today somebody asked me for a security belt. I didn't have a clue what she was talking about and told her as much. She looked at me like I was retarded and said the exact same words with disgust and contempt in her voice.
I HEARD YOU JUST FINE, BITCH, I DON'T KNOW WHAT A FUCKING SECURITY BELT IS.
Looking at me like I was the stupidest person on Earth, she made the motion of putting on a jacket and said; "to float".
OH A FUCKING LIFE JACKET?
I wanted to punch her.

Black Forest. There's a city called Black Forest near here. People always asked me if it was a regional icecream name deal. A lot. I never cared enough to find out.

Closest Coldstone is a bit of a drive. I like the ice cream which might or might not be named Black Forest.

Yeah, I worked at one of those for six months. It was so incredibly boring, and I never once sang for a tip. Far too degrading. For the right audience I'd tell really really dirty jokes. I actually had a group of lesbian black women that would come in for a weekly cakebatter + cookie dough and a lesbian joke. It was awesome.

Some of those lines made me laugh, so you get a +2.
And when I tip you underpaid losers I don't want you to sing. I'm tipping you because your life sucks, so stop singing for the LOVE OF CHRIST.

You know, you're absolutely right. People ARE fucking stupid. People like doctors, lawyers, engineers, business owners, builders, movers, shakers, people who get things done... they are all so incredibly stupid that they cannot even do your job better than you do. Sure, the customeroid asking for ice cream might be a brain surgeon or rocket scientist, but they're no ice cream mixer, are they. Can't even operate the paddles properly, I bet. Stupid, stupid customeroid mother fuckers all of 'em. Don't you just wish they'd all just get their ice cream somewhere else?

I have to agree with rob. I thought this was pretty excellent. Plus I've shared your sentiments God knows how many times. Service industries blow.

The problem with this post is you expect us to know, care, and be fascinated by the most minute details of your former job.

it's pretty stupid to expect everyone to be an expert on your store. Minster is very easy to missreead as minister, especially if you're just in a hurry trying to get some fucking ice cream off the pipmley kid working the store. And ohh yeah, I'm real sorry that i didn't know the contents of your rocky road trip then do the math to find out it was quicker to order chocolate with almonds.
Next time I'm at taco bell and want a "taco supreme with no sour cream" I'll just order a "taco with tomatoes". dumbass.

Coulda prolly used another once over for silly typos - and your last line blew.
Pretty kick ass though.

There really is no such rule.
http://www.ubersite.com/m/93214 also ranted about Cold Stone.
Everytime I've gone (total of 2 times), I end up getting the smallest sugar free sweet cream because the very sight of massively obese individuals getting the largest size available with 4 mix-ins n' stuff just kills the indulgent streak that caused me to go in there in the first place.
