I’ve been a Dairy Queen employee for almost a year now, so, to celebrate this anniversary let's take a look back at what every employee *~loves~*.
1. When a customer walks up to the menu and hasn’t decided on their order.

5. When a customer tells you to keep the change.

Customer: “I’d like a banana split, a large cookie dough blizzard and everything else on the menu.”
8. Walking outta the store like:
