I simply couldn't take what I was doing seriously, knowing how my direct supervisor was acting himself. On a side note, after we would close, the dishwasher would routinely dismantle the faucet in order to combine its screen with a potato to make a pipe with; he would blow the pot smoke into the fan above the grill to keep it from lingering.
There have been other times when I needed to make money to go to a new town. At these times, I would start a shitty job with the intent of quitting as soon as I received my first paycheck. Needless to say, at these jobs, I was not a model employee. Neither was anyone else that I could see, so it was hard to feel guilty about it.
