Expository Writing, 2nd period
Many people eat at Charley’s Grilled Subs, but I get to work there. Over the break I worked for about half of the time, but it is fun and far from a normal job. Many people don’t realize it but Charley’s is now owed by a twenty year old and all of us that work there are friends. We love to mess around; we get into water fights and wrestle around when we’re not busy. And the best part about any job is getting paid, luckily for me I got paid Christmas eve so I had money all break.
At Charley’s we’re lucky that we are all a bunch of friends. Everyone that we work with we get along with. We all like to do the same things like snowboard and play videogames. And best part is we all love to mess around. Every so often, after we close we’ll have a water fight. Over the break we had the largest water fight yet. For about an hour we were running around with buckets of water, throwing water everywhere. By the end of the night when we left the store we were drenched and our cloths were water logged. The good news was that the store hadn’t been any cleaner than it was that night. A few days later my boss was getting frustrated so I decided to mess with her a bit, just to cheer her up. We ended up wrestling for about a half hour. I had so much fun that night and surprisingly it cheered her up. Although I think the best part of the break was getting paid. I got my pay check in the middle of the first week, it was about 300 dollars. I even got a nice Christmas bonus. I spent all of it in one day, at one store, GameStop. I finally bought my X-Box 360 and a few games as well.
I had a blast over my winter break. The best parts were surprisingly at work. I hung out with friends from work, at work, had a gigantic water fight, got in a wrestling match with my boss, and got paid. A lot of people have a job. A lot of people like their job. A lot of people don’t realize how much fun we have at Charley’s Grilled Subs.
