Bakers Drive Thru

A typical day of work would consist of coming in and doing a checklist to make sure temperatures and equipment are working properly. Give personnel required breaks and complete a p.m. deposit from the pervious night. Get ready for lunch time where it starts to become busy. Must have all personnel on the floor by 12pm. After lunch must give personnel the rest of the required breaks and finish up the day with the day time deposit of the sales recorded. I've learned that if I don't have the right amount of personnel on the floor before 12pm the flow of business doesn't flow the right way and things can become really hectic really fast. The hardest part of the job would have to be getting customers in and out quickly and making sure all personnel stay in place and do their job right. But on the upside the most enjoyable part of my job would have to be that I get to work with a diverse range of people who are unique in there own way. The fact that there is a wide range of diverse people in the workplace makes your job hard and enjoyable at the same time.

I was hired under the impression I would be working full time, I was never scheduled more than 10 hours a week. My shifts were two or three hours, days apart so that I wouldn’t get a break. I never had the ability to get the hang of anything because of this. They don’t want to give people benefits. The manager went on vacation for two weeks, two weeks after I was hired and other people were supposed to be training me. This did not happen, yet I was expected to know how to do literally everything.  The managers frequently complained and made fun of another employee to me that couldn’t remember certain things so I can only imagine what they said about me behind my back. You will not hear the words please or thank you come out of the managers mouth once.  One time a crazy person decided to throw a brick at my car, the manager couldn’t care less. I don’t know if these people literally were never taught manners but if that’s an important thing to you, you will hate it here.  
They also assume that you do things you did not, when you correct them, they still treat you like you did it. 
There’s a lot of drama and everyone seems very unhappy

They always are willing to work with your schedule, even if you have to change it last minute. They also provide good breaks: half hour lunches and ten minute breaks depending on your shift. You can learn how to deal with difficult people and stressful situations as well as how to multitask and move quickly and efficiently.

While the coworkers and managers are very nice and easy to work with, it can get stressful very fast, especially on the night shift when you're may be the only one working the drive thru. Not only do you have to deal with people who are drunk and/or high and rude but you also have to get everything ready on your own while also fielding complaints from people over the headset and through the window. People throw the biggest fit over the smallest things and fight with you about items on the menu and having discounts. Honestly the stress you can feel at this place is not worth the compensation and It is not a job I would want to be in for very long.

My day was a three hour workday five days a week during the mornings. First I would dispose of the previous nights trash and empty out a pot of old grease, I would then survey the surrounding are outside collecting trash and scrubbing away any stains. After wiping down the doors and windows I'd restock, clean, and sanitize the restrooms. If any sodas needed to be refilled or if any perishable items needed to be rotated I would see to it before emptying the trash from inside the lobby and kitchens then the last thing I would do would be to sweep and mop the floors. On Wednesdays the restaurant would get deliveries and I would have to take in all supplies and check that we had all that was ordered before signing for them and then placing all items in there place.

Management is overall fine. Coworkers are regular people like you and me. Customers range between regular ol' rude people in a hurry, to regulars who are just happy to be getting Bakers food because they've had it since childhood. We have horror stories, we have great memories. Just like my friends at McDonalds say, fight for your ability to not work X and Y days of the week, or else you may just be scheduled for work on those days, even though you wrote it down on paper! Other than that, flexible schedules are nice. Just don't forget to check your schedule or you're screwed! Hope you feel like calling into the restaurant during busy hours!

Corporate representatives were always very nice and often see potential in store employees, ask for further training on behalf of store employees for store career advancement. Store managers hardly ever listen to corporate reps and like to play favorites. If a corporate rep was rooting for someone that wasn't a favorite, the employee in the situation would face retaliation or nothing at all. Store management is very unprofessional and abusive to their employees. Raises were extremely difficult to come across if you were not a favorite employee of the manager. I was there for two years at minimum wage ($9 at the time), received a small title promotion and was denied the compensation to match the role.

A tipical day at work consisted of keeping your station neat clean and approchable as well as the dining area. If its a slower day helping around the kitchen doing extra tasks that need to be done is a priority of mine just to keep busy.
I have learned to work with other people from diffrent walks of life, have patience for difficult customers also take and follow orders as well as give them. The co-workers are friendly. 
The hardest part of my job would be taking a surplus of orders at once as well as asembling a completely diffrent order preparing it for handing out.
The most enjoying part of this job would be free food.

A typical day at work was normally very fast paced. At the start of my shift i would normally check the work area to make sure all items were stocked, I would then assist any customers whether it was on the register or answering questions. During my shifts i would also perform dinning room checks and would clean the tables at this time.

At this job i learned how to work on a register and how to also better deal with and assist customers. 

The management and co-workers at Baker's were excellent and always working very hard. They were also very friendly

There was no part of my job that was hard

The most enjoyable part of my job was being able to interact and assist customers

The hiring is poor, new members are not trained to sufficient standards leaving hard working members of the team or pick up the slack. Scheduling is poor and more hours go to people who call off and don't work than to those who show up all the time and work with proficiency. Scheduling also leaves the store understaffed 4-5/7 days a week during record sales times. Prices on food goes up and portion sizes go down frequently leaving customers angry at the workers. Management doesn't look at all the facts when handling employee disagreements and tends to take the side of whoever they appear to like more.

I honestly like my job but being a Cashier also means doing all the grunt work. Only cashiers on Walk are put to trash duty, cleaning the dining room(clean tables, clean seats, sweep, and mop), cleaning the parking lot, stocking supplies, and dishes. It's not so bad until you have to clean before your shift is gonna end while people come in, but no other workers help, so it does get overwhelming at times. Surprisingly to me, weekends on evening shift(5pm-10pm) aren't as busy, but have small rushes of customers. And some managers are pretty passive aggressive, like mine, she cut my hours drastically(from 20 to 8) when I asked not to schedule me for a few days for my older brothers Naval Graduation in another state.
