Fast Food - A Fast Business

We've all been there and they are all basically the same. Anywhere a fat filled meal is ready to eat in under two minutes, well most of the time. Most of us have eaten fast food wondering "Is that special sauce or the "output" of a frustrated worker?"

Have any of us even considered the disgruntled, overworked worker? Behind the register, in the fast paced kitchen, or cleaning the dining room, sweating away the moments of a faced paced work day. Every moment is a pressure to sell sell sell. A pressure to be perfect enough to put more money in the pockets of those in corporate offices. Crazy, huh? Hey, I've been there. Face it, the fast food worker provides a valuable service to those visiting, a fix for what could easily become an addiction....FAST FOOD!!

Next time you are in the mood for a burger or some super secret special chicken something, consider the fast food worker. Instead of approaching the register or the drive thru menu with a mindset of ego, criticizing the worker with thoughts of perfection and discrimination, take a moment and smile with gratitude. Not only will you receive better service (possibly minus the "special sauce"), you will also encourage confidence and peace in the worker. Imagine that, you can change the world of fast food.
