Assignment 20- Chelsea Avery

How to survive an open-to-close shift at Monkey Joes:
1. Recognize the night before that you will want to die, try to get some rest.
2. Show up on time with a smile on your face, if your manager is happy with you, your day may be a little easier.
3. As the guests begin to line up at the door, don't be alarmed. Remember to breathe.
4. Communicate with your coworkers as the line of screaming children begins to trail out the door.
5. Watch out for your hungover coworkers. If they aren't scheduled an opening shift, they will probably party all night and may vomit.
6. Steal candy throughout the day to keep yourself going. No matter how hungry you get, DO NOT EAT THE HOTDOGS.
7. Try not to watch the clock too much, your break will come soon enough.
8. Hide in the bathroom when the building reaches max capacity but the people keep coming in. Just take cover and hope to survive.
9. Talk to people to keep yourself sane. Listening to the cotton candy machine play music all day will make you crazy.
10. Make an announcement that we will be closing in 15 minutes when there are still 30 minutes left until close. Just do it. The people will never leave if you don't.
