My favorite job that I have ever had has to be when I worked for a burrito shop called Moe’s Southwest Grill. Some of you may have heard of it, but it isn’t the most popular place to eat. I worked there for the better half of two years, and started during my junior year in high school. The main reason that I loved this job was because I had the absolute sweetest boss in the world, her name was Big Mama, and she was a large black woman. She is still a close family friend, and probably one of the funniest people that I have ever met. At this place I didn’t have to do much working, because we were so slow, but it was an awesome job. Most of the time I spent eating free food, or fooling around with the other two workers who were there. All we really did was keep the place clean and roll burritos for people, when we actually had business. Since I was close with my boss Mama, I got to pick my hours for the most part, which was very nice. I also became a shift manager towards the end of my job, which was sweet because I was 18 years old in charge of a food shop, with no supervision above me. My close friend worked with me, and sometimes it was just us two in the store, so we got to do whatever we pleased whenever we wanted. The reason we could do this is again because nobody actually came to eat, since there was a chipotle right down the street. The food wasn’t very good, but I had a lot of good times and made some good money working there. The reason I still don’t work there in the summer is because we went out of business. The owners got into a fight and stopped paying the lease on the establishment, since neither of them cared about it anymore (They are really old). Just recently the store opened back up, but I didn’t apply because my boss Mama found another job, and it just wouldn’t be the same.
I have heard of Moe's. I my work is kind of like that too, except i still work there. My job is a family owned catering company and my boss is a close family friend. I love it!
ReplyDeleteI have the equivalent of a Big Momma at my work. It really is the people that make most jobs tolerable.
