"One of my fondest moments in my relationship with my fiancé happened because of a Walmart being open 24 hours. This was back in 2018-ish, and my fiancé and I both worked at the local Pizza Hut. We had opposite schedules, and for some reason, management never scheduled our days off together. For about 3 or 4 months, we only saw each other at shift change."
"One day, our closing driver called out, and I was the only one willing and able to be the closing driver, but we still needed a manager in the store to run things. My fiancé offered to work a double, and we worked that closing shift together. We still didn't get to see each other long because the closing driver was a solo gig at my store, which meant I was on the road the entire night."
"We actually weren't super busy, and we were able to clean up and get everything done at a reasonable hour. It was still after midnight before we were finally done with everything. We got everyone out of the store, and we went over to Walmart and grabbed a bunch of random stuff we could cook in the oven and fryer, and came back to the store and had a date night in a closed Pizza Hut at 1 am."
A couple worked opposite schedules at a local Pizza Hut and saw each other only at shift changes for several months. A closing driver called out and one partner volunteered to close while the other covered a double, allowing them to be in the store together between runs. After finishing late, they went to a 24-hour Walmart to buy frozen oven- and fryer-ready food. They returned to the closed Pizza Hut around 1 a.m., cooked chicken nuggets, mac and cheese, and dumplings, and spent about ninety minutes talking and eating. The memory remained a cherished moment in their relationship.
