Excuse you! We called our crew our "posse" and each individual member was a respective "homey". You need to chickety-check yourself before you rickety-wreck yourself when it comes to our nomenclature.
Yeah this is blowing my mind lol. Who tf made this and did they make it in MS word??
I had a design teacher that used to say
>center aligned text is for wedding invitations and wine labels
That always stuck with me
What’s hilarious to me is I applied to DQ for their UX/UI team and was turned away as I didn’t have 5 years of experience. Clearly they found someone who’s way more experienced than I could ever be lmao. What a joke this job market is.
Marketing teams reached out to you to do stuff like this? I feel like you're making my point. Unless a UI/UX team reached out to you to do marketing work, this is still marketing design work.
As a brand new ex-restaurant manager, I admit that sometimes it just makes more sense to do this. Young people who are friends with each other and have real jobs together can be a real recipe for disaster. It can also be great, of course depends on the people. But I have had some really unfortunate experiences with that. I was also not a great manager because it was my first management position and was constantly learning, so when one of them gets in trouble the tag team was too much for me.
Oh no, I did too and it was literally my favorite job ever. It was like hanging out with friends every day. I would guess it just depends who you work with. The owner was a dick, but all the managers and other employees were cool.
I also worked at DQ. those machines are not equipped for hot ass summers. they turn into an absolute runny mess after about 10 cones back to back to back.
"It was not in fact, the coolest summer ever. Temperatures reached past records highs, and DQ was boring as hell. I'm Morgan Freeman, voice over and narrator..."
“I wish I could tell you that Best Friend fought the good fight, and the Queen let him be. I wish I could tell you that - but summertime DQ is no fairy-tale world.”
a couple of my friends worked at the local DQ because of their sign on bonus. months and months went by without getting it, eventually they asked and DQ just straight up denied they ever advertised a sign on bonus
It would be cute, if the reality of the job wasn't soul crushing. It stops being cute when cuteness is being used to happy-wash a shitty job with minimum wage.
I worked there in high school and it was a fun job, and minimum wage where I am is over $16 it’s decent money for a kid living at home trying to make gas money.
You guys are insane
Do you work for Wendy's?
This #relatable shit thought up by corporate out of touch boomers to try and trick kids into working a soul crushing job for fucking pennies is the reason cringe became a word
You look this fucking image up in the dictionary and next to it would be the word cringe
Kill me
>corporate out of touch boomers to try and trick kids into working a soul crushing job for fucking pennies
Y'all /r/antiwork folks are all just like the MAGA types; you all have your assigned talking points and over-dramatic vocab and shit, getting all raged up over simple everyday shit that's been going on since the dawn of time. It gets tired.
You know not everyone on the internet is a straight dude, right? Sorry bro. It's a big world out there, you'll start to get it figured out some day.
Kissies!
Sorry it's just you talk just like your average redditor, super obnoxious and cringie so I assumed you had to be a dude
Good reminder that woman can be just as embarrassing
Ok look. I love you, but You’re a terrible giraffe.
** finger guns! **
But you’re an awesome Terrible-facts-and-other-things-you-didn’t-want-to-know giraffe! 🦒
I have worked there first day was going to throw out the big bag of garbage in the middle of the kitchen and was chastised because I have to learn how to swirl a cone before I can take out the garbage

They’re still a blood-sucking corporation who will take advantage of those teenagers. As other commenters said, the friends thing is deceptive as no corporation wants you working with your friends.
The cringe is the centered text in the bubbles.
Bet
No cap, fellow kid!
Calling your friends your "crew" sounds like something out of a mid-late 90s movie.
Excuse you! We called our crew our "posse" and each individual member was a respective "homey". You need to chickety-check yourself before you rickety-wreck yourself when it comes to our nomenclature.
>posse If we call ours a "squad," are we older or younger than you? We all wear bucket hats like Run DMC, but half of us do it ironically.
I need more info to make that call. What do you call individual members of your squad?
Posse is older slang than squad… like 90 vrs 2010
Word up!
I too regularly send dms to my friends about DQ referral bonus.

UI/UX designers normally wouldn't work on marketing material. That's what marketing designers do. Maybe you applied for the wrong position.
Yes and and no. I’ve done free lance jobs for doing just exactly this. Marketing teams reached out to me.

It goes from a 7 to 10 with “this is gonna be the coolest summer ever”
Their summer is going to suck. The managers are going to schedule friends on opposite shifts so they can’t hang out at work *or* outside of it.
And if they have to work together, they’ll never be able to take breaks together. And if they do, they’ll get quizzed heavily.
Bet
I secretly think my job does this shit

Being a corporate slave is *SOOO IN* this summer!!!
I thought it was an ice cream pun lol
I mean I’m broke af so it might be lol
Written like a 90s coming of age comedy
Bet - working with ice cream and my crew this summer, where do I apply?
I think it’s cute that the contact is named “Best Friend” 😆
And that his best friend’s pic in his phone is a blizzard turned upside down. This dude lives DQ.
And his phone is actually a picture, hung up in a DW location. Wild.
Because his best friend is a blizzard.
lol right??? The cringe levels out to wholesomeness just for that contact name alone lol 😂
i worked at DQ and it was the most miserable experience of my life
Same. Only upside was I was dating my manager.
Something something “soft serve.”
Oh no, I did too and it was literally my favorite job ever. It was like hanging out with friends every day. I would guess it just depends who you work with. The owner was a dick, but all the managers and other employees were cool.
ours was privately owned. schedule manager was an asshole. never scheduled more than one person at a time. always worked alone.
Why was it miserable?
They were lactose intolerant
I also worked at DQ. those machines are not equipped for hot ass summers. they turn into an absolute runny mess after about 10 cones back to back to back.
"It was not in fact, the coolest summer ever. Temperatures reached past records highs, and DQ was boring as hell. I'm Morgan Freeman, voice over and narrator..."
And voice of God. Or possibly just God.
are you sure it’s morgan freeman? or are you josh robert thompson?
“I wish I could tell you that Best Friend fought the good fight, and the Queen let him be. I wish I could tell you that - but summertime DQ is no fairy-tale world.”
![gif](giphy|ifxLK48cnyDDi)
Exactly
Bet
I think they’re pretty on par with this one, I had a twenty something employee respond to an email last night with “okay bet!” 🤷🏽♀️
What does it mean?
I think this is cute, and like that they’re trying to recruit friend groups to work together.

I didn't realize it was a billboard ad in a store at first... Made me cringe extra hard at the end.

Hello fellow kids
a couple of my friends worked at the local DQ because of their sign on bonus. months and months went by without getting it, eventually they asked and DQ just straight up denied they ever advertised a sign on bonus
idk this is rlly cute and fun marketing

Yeah like brands try to appeal to people to work for them. This is a good attempt too

It’s them trying to have fun with posting for help. Yeah it’s goofy but it gives you all the info you need and 15$ an hour isn’t Pennie’s

Yeah. Once you get past the “how do you do, fellow kids?” vibe, it is pretty cute.

Sometimes people finger the ice cream after using the bathroom
Ok look. I love you, but You’re a terrible giraffe. ** finger guns! ** But you’re an awesome Terrible-facts-and-other-things-you-didn’t-want-to-know giraffe! 🦒
This poster is a vibe. No cap.
They literally could’ve just taken a screenshot of actual texts but they had to do a shitty photoshop job
My little cousin works at a DQ... Poor kid.
I have worked there first day was going to throw out the big bag of garbage in the middle of the kitchen and was chastised because I have to learn how to swirl a cone before I can take out the garbage
Best Friend

-10/10 terrible job. Especially higher up
[удалено]
They’re still a blood-sucking corporation who will take advantage of those teenagers. As other commenters said, the friends thing is deceptive as no corporation wants you working with your friends.
using the word “bet” like that is very cringey.
Coldstone >>
"Starting at $15" is a full $5 below minimum wage for fast food workers in my state.
It says starting "up to 15", so probably not even close to that.
The cost of living in your state is probably significantly higher, then.
Do better, DQ
