Pros

never a dull moment and time moves fast because it’s very busy

Cons

Being very busy can also be a con, since you’re on your feet the whole time and constantly running around. By the end of a shift, I’d always feel so tired and cannot do anything for the rest of the day. Management and co-workers make or break your experience.
