Punctuality

If you work in food service, especially fast food, you are probably what they call unskilled labor. This means that, after an hour of training, an orangutan could do your job as well as or better than you. Since you can be replaced by any warm body of vaguely anthpropoid configuration, the most importatn thing you can offer an employer is work ethic. One aspect of work ethic that seems to get overlooked is punctuality.

If you are scheduled, show up. Show up on time. On time is at least five minutes early. That's all there is to it. If you slide through the door about a minute late, you are a lazy communist who deserves to be fired.
