Pros

i love talking to he parents and helping the kids find the prize after a wonderful day of having fun. making sure that their order was right and showing them that even us grownups can act like kids at chuck e cheese everyone can be a kid

Cons

there was a lot of cons working at chuck e cheese because at time the kids are so excited and the parents would be on the line trying to order food and coins and the lines are long that would get anyone up. also the games break a lot so people want their money back or even their tickets its really a lot to do
