Best thing
I think the most element of the customers is really nice and friendly. Some of the generous people will hand you by cash tips on you while you are approachable with good services.
Worst thing
That will be the shift patterns changing all the time. It might be just a few hours to inform or let you know about it. I never heard about the normal time to time shift patterns.
