Working at Concerts

    I sometimes work in one of the Burgers vans at concerts in the RDS, which means free into all the concerts, i got to see the brilliant G n R on Friday night but I was also stuck at Metallica yesterday. I think everybody should at 2 hours working in a burger van, I worked 12 hours yesterday not only in the heat but with 2 ten min. breaks. Myself and my colleagues were yelled at for about 9 of those hours. We only work in the vans, we do not make up the prices, it is not only our fault that you had to queue for 10 minutes and missed your favourite song!(what the ****!), it is not our fault that at 10.30pm last night, we had sold out of burgers and hotdogs and sausages and finally trust me - do you really think we want to take the lids off the bottles - do you want to see the blisters i have on my hands? Lads - just think before you start abusing the harassed burger van person 'cos one day someone is going to get seriously injured !!!!!:(

    Irish people and food usually turns ugly. The amount of times one sees fights over queuing for stuff.

    I think anybody working in a burger joint will get dogs abuse especially when the puinters are hot and sticky, drunk and probably either p***ed, stoned or both.
    I assume a burger was at least the usual fiver and a bottle of water 3 euro?
