"Y'all want some sweet tea?"

After getting used to the fast pace of working at McDonald's in Orange Beach, Alabama, it's been pretty tempting to pick up a Southern accent. While it's been fun for my friends and I to make fun of Bamers, we've had a blast down here in Gulf Shores.

So far, I've had 5 LONG days of work at McD's, including one day where I worked 9.5 hours, forgot to ask for a break (i.e. no food), and never so much as sat down the entire time.

Today was great, though, because I got to have two great spiritual conversations with coworkers. The long hours and the hard work are all worth it when you remember your purpose for that work.

Prior to this week's work, our D-group of 6 guys, along with three other D-groups, went to Liberty Church in Foley on Sunday. It was Saturday, though,, that had a huge impact on what the first week was like at Kaleo...

P.S. Here's a picture of me at the register at McDonald's. Ignore the awkward sign asking for money--that sign was really awkward. Also, here's a much more photogenic picture of my friend Eric working.
