To be fair you need to have a certificate to be a bartender or other well paid jobs, convenience stores are good both in stories and irl if you have various jobs or you're a working student and you're not doing well financially because its a decent part time job that requires no degree or certificate and if it's open 24/7 you get bonuses for graveyards shifts + food that its about to expire
right, and it's a lot less stressful than working in restaurants where you have to be on the move constantly and deal with rowdy, often drunk customers. with convencience stores it can be so dead at times that you can use that opportunity to do your schoolwork. if i'm not trying to find jobs in my degree i'd 100% work in the nearby gas station

why do mcs ALWAYS work at a convenience store that looks the same
