It’s a dead end with no real opprotunity for decent advancement.



Well this being the CC forum (hmm, what does the first C stand for?), I doubt he/she (sorry I don’t know) is working in the fast-food industry because he/she wants to flip burgers (or whatever Chick-Fil-A makes) for the rest of his/her life and hopefully advance into a management position after a few years. It’s working in a “degrading” job for the sake of working in a “degrading” job.

Working in the fast-food industry (or grocery, retail… anywhere making near minimum wage) is more about gaining experience for both college and life, having an appreciation for the money you make (if you make say $7 an hour, you will think differently about buying a $60 sweater than if your parents gave you the money), seeing how hard it is in a labor-type job, and realizing that you should be nicer to the cashier next time you go to a McDonalds or something.
