Comment on short answer

One job I persistently insisted I would never be tempted by was that of the “burger flippin” type. However, closing out my junior year of high school, in need of an income for my upcoming trip to France, I grudgingly applied to Culver’s. It was when the dreaded bus pulled in, with managers ready to snap at one wrong scoop of custard, that I came to value efficiency and the ability to stay calm under pressure. I learned to have fun and be patient with customers who complained that their burgers were missing onions. I learned to juggle a 20 hour work week with school, while maintaining top grades. Although I actually never flipped a burger (I always worked the front), Culver’s taught me life long lessons of efficiency, patience and organization . I came to enjoy and appreciate a job I never thought I’d have.

You might not want to just post this out in the open. Who knows who's reading posts to get "inspiration".
