Kilwin's Winter Park Anonymous

There’s a line out the door. Our youngest customers teeter on their tip toes to see inside the long glass cases. I work at Kilwin’s Winter Park, one of 90 locations in a growing confectionery franchise. We serve 32 ice cream flavors (memorized by heart), eight flavors of store-made fudge (sold by the pound), and all things chocolate-covered or caramel-filled. Located in the middle of the ever-popular Park Avenue, our shop is constantly busy. Lines often run out the door as the smell of freshly made waffle cones draws families into our shop. There is no shortage of chaos, but when I clock into work I’m guaranteed six hours of fast-paced fun. I love my coworkers, and customers are hardly hostile when I’m handing them chocolate treats. I might come home wearing an ice cream flavor or two, but working at Kilwin’s is (literally) sweet.
