Oh MAN!!!

I remember when I was a car hop working at Sonic! I got so nervous carrying them out and reading back the order to the customers. You only were suppose to say some items to make it short and sweet. I had a tough time learning all the abbreviations on the menu, but after awhile I got it. Sometimes I talked WAYYYYYY too much, but I just tried to imagine what the customer would want to hear and see if it made sense. I tried to make sure people had a good experience. Lots of teens going on dates, families grabbing a quick meal, and friends just meeting up. I didn't mind it once I got past the nervous stage. It's a good job. The shakes are awesome too!!! I probably gained like 15 pounds drinking one a day. Totally WORTH IT!! #noregrets

That sounds like a really difficult job, and thats coming from someone with a decade of experience working in Restaurants already! I don't know if I could run around to various cars while keeping track of orders, payments, and food delivery! You must be an excellent multitasker @Robert Clark!! 🍦🍔🥤

I give you a ton of credit! It's tough learning all those menus and codes. The shakes are very delicious, haha. Sometimes you have to get those work benefits when you can : ) Glad to hear you enjoyed your experience at Sonic Robert.

It's difficult sometimes remembering all the things on a menu and especially a big one like Sonic has. No one is perfect. It sounds like you did a good job while you were there.
