The People You Meet at an OU Campus Job

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Ohio U chapter.

1. The person who isn’t a student leader but thinks they are

This person is one of those people who loves to be in an authority position, but unfortunately for them when it comes to work they’re not a manager or leader. No worries though, because these people will still be the first person to tell you if you’re doing something wrong or explain simple tasks to you like you’re a first grader.  

2. The person who says that they hate this place 20 times during their shift

We get it, you don’t want to be here.

3. The person who takes a million bathroom breaks

This person always disappears to get water or use the bathroom. They pretty much do anything to get out of actually doing work. You look away for a quick second and when you turn back around they’re gone.

4. The people who are way too cheery for a 7 a.m. shift

The sun isn’t even up, and I don’t have enough coffee in my system yet.  

5. The person who constantly shows up to work hung over

Whether it’s a 7 a.m. shift or a 4 p.m. shift, they always look like they would give anything for an Advil and some sleep.

6. The one person you don’t mind working with

They just get you and make work bearable.
