She has to put together people's grocery orders (Amazon Pantry). Half the time she is a freezer or refrigerator pulling food put. And she is always rushing because she is always being timed. It is absolutely miserable work. She's been there 6 months. As soon as she finds something better she's out of there, but she says it's better than waiting tables.
