The Girl has her second job: this time, she’s working at Dairy Queen. I guess there’s a certain continuity with last summer’s job at Culver’s, but only vaguely.
When she was applying for the job, I suggested that she shouldn’t leave the reference section empty.
“They’re so desperate for workers,” she explained, “that it doesn’t matter.” I recommended that she reconsidered; she didn’t. She got the job.
It helped that she did have experience, though, that she could go straight to work, that she knew how to work a register. The first day on the job, they put her behind a register and got her working with almost no immediate training.
The other afternoon, our family friends went through the drive-thru to get a little snack. L didn’t realize it was them until they pulled up.
This is now one of my favorite pictures of her.
