iners, dives, drive ins! Restaurants, cafes, fast food. Whatever you call them they all provide the same thing – food! And we all need food.

My very first job as a young teenager in the late 70s was at the Dairy Hut, AKA Snackette in Yale, OK. I believe my starting pay was $1.20 per hour. It was the perfect job. My family had just moved here from California, so what better way to meet all the kids in town than working at the local hangout! It was a great job! I’m probably the only one who enjoyed it.
The Snackette is still taking and filling food orders today. They have been in the business for more than 60 years, and amazingly also has been run by the same owner, Mary Doll, who sadly passed away several months ago.
Restaurants come and go in all towns, but not the Dairy Hut. When I started there, they did not offer dining room seating. What they offered were some cold metal chairs with a small side table attached on the left side I believe. The table was big enough to hold your hamburger, fries and coke. Easy to clean, too! And in the eating area was a jukebox! We employees always got our allotment of painted quarters per shift to feed the juke box. And, oh the songs we played!
Several years after I left, the owner added a nice sized room to hold seven or eight booths, plus a round table. Kayla and I make the short trip to the Snackette about once a month. I tend to look up at the old metal awning to see the same hole my brother made with our old winch truck forty years ago.
Then we always order the homemade onion rings. They are the bomb!
