It was two weeks after your graduation and you were already at a new summer job. You wanted to have some money to spend while you were on summer break. Or at least have some to save before going to college. You were excited to start at your dream college, working with film editing, working your way up to work with movie trailers.
Soon, you would be making the big money, and soon you would be busy and not have time to spend your time with friends. So, working with your best friend Lily was best for the time being. It was just a coffee shop for now, and she enjoyed it, has been working there since her junior year of high school. Often would try to convince you to join, but you would often find yourself busy and just wanting to have fun.
No matter, as long as you had a job now, that was really all that mattered.
"And today we will be working the front. I will train you on the register today. It is really simple and pretty much self explanatory. The presets are all there, and you can input add-ons, or have items removed." She explains as the two of you tie your aprons in the employee break room that was in the back of the store.
"Sounds exciting. I am honestly glad that you are the one training me." You admit as your fix your hat, looking in the mirror that they had near the lockers. You apply a little more lip gloss and pop your lips.
"And plus, today is Thursday. my two-day regular comes in and I can't wait for you to see how handsome he is. He only comes Tuesdays and Thursdays for whatever reason, and I always get so nervous to even start a conversation. I have always wanted to ask why he only shows up on those two days." Your best friend ties her shoes and smiles over her shoulder at you. "Anyway, are you ready?"
"Yes, I am ready." You nod with a smile, pushing your braid, that was over your shoulder, towards your back.
She leads you to the front of the shop to the register. The shop was not open yet, so it was an easier process for her to show you quickly what the buttons were on the computer and how to go about the menu. It was pretty easy. You saw yourself getting use to it as the weeks progressed.
"Okay, let's open the doors." The morning manager called out and Lily quickly made her way to the front door to pull the cord of the Open sign, lighting up once pulled, she walked to the door and unlocked it.
Customers began to fill the room as she returned to you and took over the register so you could watch her before you could use it yourself.
