15 Problems Only People Who Work For A Pub Chain Will Understand

7. Wishing You Could Eat Chips All Day

So many chips. SO MANY CHIPS. Nowhere pumps out plates and bowls and side dishes of chips like a pub chain restaurant. Cheap, tasty and an easy meal, you'll take orders for chips, take out batches of chips, clean away half-empty plates of chips, and stare longingly at discarded floor-chips until you're almost mad with desire for one small lick of a chip. You KNOW they're bad for you, you've SEEN the deep fat fryers where they've been cooked, you've SMELLED the vats of oil that go into the cooking - and yet everyday is one long shift of dreaming about chips. As soon as you get a break from the busy floor, you're in the kitchen, begging for a bowl of free chips. Heaven forbid a chef refuses you them.

I love Stephen King and music festivals; I eat my toast upside down; I daydream about getting married probably a bit too much; and I wish every day for a pet sausage dog puppy (who never materialises – sob).
