i watched a dude, who was alone, eating his burger get up from his table and walk into the bathroom with his burger, still eating it, then 3 minutes later come back out still finishing it off
this was before covid and i still think about it sometimes
Even though it’s been a long time, I still have this memory from the ’90s (possibly early ’00s) of going to McDonald’s with a parent and seeing a young uniformed woman at a table, looking sad and hopeless. She was dressed like she was supposed to be working in the back but she was just sitting there with her arms on the table, looking depressed. I stared at her for so long that she noticed me.
I always wondered… did she just lose her job?
Since I was only a shy little kid, I said nothing to her, but it is an old memory that’s always haunted me.
I have a feeling that I would have forgotten if she were dressed casually, because seeing a fast‐food worker actually sitting alone at one of the tables (and not eating anything either) looks very unusual. If she lost her job then that would raise the question of why she was still wearing her uniform; my guess is that former workers are supposed to turn those in rather than keep them, but I have no clue.
