When you work at an ice cream shop, you have a completely different understanding of the ice cream world. There are so many aspects you wouldn't know unless you worked at an ice cream shop, so here is a glimpse into the life of an ice cream artist.

Come on people, you are getting ice cream… cheer up!

8. When a huge family comes up to order, you pray they all order soft-serve cones.

However, we all know they will order a small and medium chocolate milkshake, a mint chocolate chip cone with sprinkles, an Oreo arctic swirl with chocolate ice cream, a medium hot fudge sundae with whipped cream and a cherry, a banana boat, a hot fudge cake and a small twist cone, and you memorized all of it.
