I was 16 when I was employed for my first job at my local McDonald's, I was employed for three consecutive years. The first two years of me working I actually enjoyed working there; the fast pace matched my racing thoughts and energetic personality, constantly doing something and racing against the clock to get the customers food out in 60 seconds or less, the work was consistent but still had a different feel everyday, new and old faces come and go and you dealt with different types of people;weather it was positive or negative experiences, but you still learned something after each one. The people i worked with enjoyed my presence and the energy I brought with me and what was supposed to be just work turned to be a home, somewhere I felt good and felt as if I had meaning. my last year of working was rough, we had gotten a new GM ( General Manager ), she who shall not be named was nothing compared to my previous GM's who were hard working and did what they could for their employees. So for my last year of working I had a poor leader and her actions effected my view of the job. All the employees including myself had to make up for the lack of leadership. Despite that, I will always carry my job at McDonald's heavily in my heart for the job helped me grow as a person.
