On 24/Sep/11 from
10am to 3pm I was at the school selling hotdogs, hamburgers, candy and snacks
to the kids who came for the 6 aside football tournament and the girls
volleyball tournament. At first I was managing the orders then I started to
manage the money which I didn’t like so I was in charge of putting together the
hot dogs and the hamburgers for the
customers, and we had a lot of
customers which was great because it meant we were probably getting a good
income. At one point of the day there was only Chase and I who were at the food
stand and all the other athletic council members left and it was the lunch rush
and it was very hectic because
there were only two of us against about 20 hungry, tired and sweaty people
looking for food so at one point Mr. Morris came to help us and then eventually
other members of the athletic council came to help out and it was back under control.
From that point on the customers started wavering thin. Then we ran out of
hotdogs and then soon it was hamburgers so we had to only sell the snacks and
by that time the tournament was almost over and we started to serve the few
hamburgers that were left over to the referees. By the time it was 3 we started
to clean up and we went home. During this day I learned how tiring it is to run
a stand and I also learned that running a stand isn’t a two or three man job
you needed about four or five people to help out or it gets chaotic.
