Chance works the drive-thru

Chance has found his future vocation....working the drive-thru window at Wendy's.  The restaurant chain donated part of each sale to the Boy Scouts of America this evening so Chance and his troop helped serve the masses looking all spiffy in their scout shirts.

This drive-thru experience was much less painful than the one Chance created a few years ago.  He decided that one of the windows in our kitchen was the drive through window and he served his siblings food out of it.

receive his Star Scout Rank in May, 2012
Unfortunately it was the same window we had warned the kids about since the mechanism that moves it up and down was breaking.  After several "customers" were served,  the window slammed down on Chance's fingers.  I knew he needed stitches when I found myself looking through layers of flesh one can't normally see on his finger.

Tonight's drive-thru episode was much less violent.

Chance came home and cheerfully said," I want to work at the drive-thru at Wendy's when I am old enough to get a job!"

I was impressed that Chance could hear enough to produce orders in the mayhem that is a busy drive-thru restaurant.  The flow of people was steady, and the scouts were kept busy cleaning pans and handing food out to customers.

Who knows, maybe a few years from now, Chance will be a regular at the Wendy's drive-thru window handing out food to customers just like he dreams about:)
