One thing that often makes us hesitate to get up is that we never really know what kind of day we'll have once we get to work.
Although some jobs can have a baseline for how things usually go to the point that some people can even automate their daily tasks, most of us are at the mercy of either our bosses' or our customers' whims.
That means you can find yourself struggling to find things to do in a given day or you can end up wishing you had four extra arms as you discover you somehow have to fill dozens of orders at once.
And sometimes, even the busy days you've gone through before can seem like a picnic compared to the crazy times that Starbucks workers have in store when somebody orders 22 drinks. And even that isn't quite as nightmarish as the $7,000 order one McDonald's location got from a local prison.
But while tales of these extreme scenarios tend to focus on the chaos of being in the thick of them, one McDonald's crew's celebration after handling a staggering run of orders shows how much we can impress ourselves by doing what would've seemed impossible an hour ago.
