            This week I noticed right away that business was good when I got to my location. First of all I saw in the parking lot that there were several vehicles in the parking lot. Now, inside I see that there are several people inside. While I was in line I noticed that the worker I am used to seeing is here today. I also notice a group of teenage girls sitting in a booth, in the corner. They all seem to be the same age. Also here today is a woman with three children with her. Sitting at a table not too far are two men. They may be related. One of them has long hair and a laptop. The other man has short hair and is eating his burger with an angry look on his face. Also here is a man woman with a young boy. The boy is probably three or four. Also at the location today is a couple sitting together. The girl is laughing at the man for some reason and the man is looking like he is trying to explain something. The man is wearing glasses.

            At the counter right now is a man all alone with a beanie on, it is pretty cold today. The group of girls in the corner now have an older woman sitting with them. I think this may be a team of some sort and the older woman their coach. Some girls are talking about “beating someone” so they must be a sports team. The three kids with their mother are making her laugh now. She is laughing really loudly. The kids look embarrassed now. Now entering is a woman with a little boy, presumably her son.

            The man with the beanie is sitting down now close to the couple without kids. That same couple is actually leaving now. The girl is getting a refill, and is now following the man out. The mother of the three kids is sounding like she is ready to leave, as she is telling her children to hurry up. The two brothers (I’m assuming they are brothers) are getting ready to leave now. The one with the short hair is standing up and saying something to the other, which has a strange look on his face. The angry one leaves and the brother with the laptop stays a bit longer and finally packs up his laptop and throws away his trash before leaving.

            The parents with the young child are getting ready to leave and the mom walks the child outside. The dad is not far behind. As they leave a young woman and a little girl walk through the door. They are quiet while they order and wait for their food. The group of teenage girls is leaving now and all twelve of them make their way out the door. I notice the older woman, who may or may not be the coach go towards the restrooms. Awhile after the coach leaves the woman and the little boy also leave.

            As the hour goes on the woman with the three kids also leaves. As they leave I can hear them saying something about the Thanksgiving holiday. The lone man with the beanie also leaves as does the young woman with the little boy. Later, as I am getting ready to leave I see the worker behind the counter disappear to the back. Hopefully she won’t cause any trouble for the customers.
