Marcia, you watch the 'have it your way' bar. Peter, you flip burgers and fry the 'Skipper's Treats'. Bobby you're on the shake machine and 'Fun Meals', and Cindy, you're on fries... Alice, grab a mop. Burger Chef and Jeff, grab some bench... I'll do the talking." 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drroogh Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) Growing up the only fast food was the Root Beer stands. McDonald’s was 15 miles away in Valpo, and that wasn’t until I got to college. Edited October 9, 2022 by Drroogh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
