Christian Camp Bus

Came into work one day, and was going through the usual routine. Making sure the bathrooms and dining area were stocked and clean, taking customers' orders, that sort of thing. It was summer, so it wasn't very busy like it is on school days.
At one point, I noticed one of the trash cans seemed full. Shoved the trash down, just to make sure, but it didn't make much difference. All right, time to take this out. I pulled the bag out of the trash can, twisted the top and tied it. Around that time, people started coming in. Great. It was fairly slow, but the instant I started taking the trash out, that's when customers start showing up. I'll have to serve them here in a moment...

Cashier Pet Peeves

After working as a cashier, you start to notice common themes, some of which eventually take the form of pet peeves. The vague descriptions or wrong names so you can't figure out what they're trying to order, or the gust of wind through the drive-thru window that makes a five-dollar bill try to fly away from you.
