If I had a nickel for every customer who commented that working at the yogurt shop would be fun, I'd have...a quarter. I don't know whether to laugh at them or smack them.
Sure, from where they're standing working here looks like fun. You swirl tasty yogurt all day long and serve it to shiny happy people, while in the back room tiny fairies mix up fresh batches of yogurt and rainbow-colored unicorns poop out an endless supply of colorful candy toppings. What they don't seem to realize is that this is a job, and like any other job, it sucks.
Let's see how much fun they think the job is after they spend a few hours washing dishes and cutting fruit; even the "fun" jobs like swirling yogurt gets pretty tedious after the first hundred times. And let's not forget the customers; let's see how they handle the giggling teenagers, the little kids who change their minds a dozen times in thirty seconds, and the customers who decide that you are responsible for everything that's wrong with their lives.
You want to have fun? Go to an amusement park. Then tell the employees how much fun it must be to work there and watch their heads explode.
