When I was a student I worked in a single-man pub kitchen frantically prepping, cooking and washing dishes all at the same time. It was hot, there were no windows, on my feet all day, burns on my hands constantly... but it was my favourite job to date . I mean I wouldn't do it now as it was crap pay (though £2 above min wage at the time which isn't bad as a student) + zero hour contract even though I was working 30-40 hour weeks... BUT the work itself I loved. The time flew in.
