      You're only allowed to talk shit about pumpkin spice if you worked in a convenience store and ended up covered in the stuff every holiday season.

          Also once you've seen the back end of a soda fountain you probably won't want to drink from them ever again.

            Yessir, that's gospel truth.

            Love having a manager that tells us not to clean the ice machine even though there's mold growing in it.

                Oh, it is extremely common. Cleaning takes forever and you have to empty the entire machine. Health inspectors often forget to check too.

                  Jesus christ, I did my best to keep the slurpee and soda machines clean because one of the perks of the job was free drinks.

                  But just seeing how bad they could get put me off ever using one I didn't maintain myself lol

                  I used to think it was bougie to buy bottled drinks at fast food places. Now it’s the only way I’ll do it
