I love my job became of the people that come in and the people that I work with, explains Cindy, who is a sophomore interested in forestry and conservation. She admits her job interferes with studying and that she has to study at work on slow nights. Socially, Cindy doesn't feel left out by working because she says her job is very social in itself and many of her friends visit her at the diner.
