part time job at fast food

Which is considered easier? working at the back or the front? which is less stressful?
AND does anyone know how much a 17 y/o would/should get paid?

personal experiences welcome.
thanks!

Being out the front is all well and good for the first six months, maybe even the first eighteen months, but eventually you'll realise that that everything is meaningless and that money is merely a construct and that you'd rather dive into a pin of sewing needles than every run to make the drive-thru time under three minutes thirty. Get out the back, and do it pronto. (Macca's only - other stores have different systems, I know KFC cooking is probably a little more stressful than Macca's out the back).

Front is easier.

But back (drive thru) is much more fun tbh
and plus it teaches you skills on how to work quickly, cooperate as a team more etc...

but on busy nights, drive thru is such a pain lol

Oh yeah I'm 16 and I get $12/hour if that helps!
so idk how much 17-year-olds get paid

@strawberries where do you work and how long have you worked there? thanks

In my opinion, front is easier but gets boring quickly. Back is more engaging because you actually get to make food but probably more stressful during rush hours. When I worked at Hungry Jacks (I was 16) I got paid $8.9951 per hour part time. Now at KFC I think I get paid around $11 an hour.
