Before you say it, yes, I know the “I’m going to Disneyland” catchphrase uttered by the likes of Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes after they won the Super Bowl is an ad. But it at least sounds fun!

Working the register at a Raising Cane’s doesn’t. I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with working at a Raising Cane’s — it’s much more accessible for fans who want to see their favorite athlete up close and personal, serving them baskets of chicken, but to me, it’s very dance monkey, dance.
