  • Lol, we used those little transmitters that you plug into the cigarette lighter plug until several years ago in a mid 2000s car, and they’re still sold and used by people. The funniest thing that happened was when we were overtaking a semi who had one of these, but with a stronger transmitter, so for a couple of seconds we were listening to the guy’s random turbo folk music.




  • Both are. I worked for one of those.

    Had a customer insult a coworker’s mother. The coworker was in her early twenties, moved to this job from waiting because she couldn’t take dealing with people face to face while she was grieving her mother’s death. She was sobbing on the phone, while the customer kept being an antisocial asshole.

    Many people think only students do these jobs (perplexed why they would even think that) and that makes them believe they can mistreat the employees. There was an interaction between a coworker with no kids and one of these assholes. She was fed up with this shit and bit back, telling them she’s a single mother of two, and to stop assuming who works these jobs. Funnily, it shut the customer up real fast, and suddenly they were apologetic.

    These are just two from the sea of many that I remember off the top of my head years later.

    It’s the same type of people who think fast food workers shouldn’t get a living wage because it’s a “high schooler’s job”.
