Amen. Brother. Amen. I worked at Carl's Junior (Southern Cal burger chain) and it taught me the following

1) The value of showing up on time

2) Your attitude dictates how well you do in life

3) Doing a good job is its own reward

4) Character counts

Sure, mopping floors, waddling about on greasy floors, and growing a pimply face might seem unattractive and nasty but it was the sweat and toil and the DISCIPLINE it produced that continues to guide me to this day.

Don't knock hard honest labor because it is the foundation of character that benefits a person for a lifetime.
