Burn Baby, Burn
I burnt my forearm pretty badly when I was in HS and working fast food. I ran to the drive thru window and threw my hand out into the cold wintry breeze while my co-workers were trying to find a clean bucket to put cold water in for me.
Ended up using a bucket that had some re-hydrated pickles floating in it. A customer pulled around to the window- I’m heaving and sweating, hanging out the window and shaking my arm around in the snowflakes- and stuffs a bunch of cash into my hand. A normal looking lady in a van with a ponytail.
I was worried it would blow away so I started to cry and tried to give it back to her, she started shouting at me and ended up going into the lobby to pay/get her food. Poor thing. Story credit: Reddit / bluebearypancake
