I don't know if it's such a horrible job. I used to go to a Sonic in Texas where this one girl had worked for years and years. She was not very attractive, but she was athletic and when she skated it was magical. She could skate backwards and not trip on curbs or anything. I used to tip her like crazy and I'm sure most people did, it was like something from a movie.

From AOL's Homepage:
"Kellie 'Picker's' fast-food gig to Rod Stewart digging graves,
the worst pre-fame jobs ever"
Shouldn't that be 'Pickler'?

"Worst job"? Really? I work at Sonic and make like 10-20 bucks an hour with my tips. Kellie probably made good money too, being as adorable as she is. You only have to skate if you want to and they pay you extra if you do. I enjoy the skating portion of my job. It's way more fun than sitting behind a desk! Sonic is helping me pay my way through college and I only work a few days a week. Sonic isn't as glamorous as American Idol, but its sure as heck not one of the worst jobs ever, I know first hand, thank you very much.

If she can still skate, perhaps she should try out for the Carolina Roller Girls-- one of the top 5 flat track roller derby teams in the East! (And we could rename her-- as ALL derby girls have their 'derby name'-- with the name of 'Anna Kournikova Pickler', for her looks AND her real last name. Just remember to skate fast and turn left!)

I used to do the same thing at a Sonic Drive in and I hated it! I did it for three years and actually ended up in the emergency room for hurting myself on those skates!!!

I'm sorry, but Kelly Pickler is the dumbest person I have ever heard open her mouth. She is the epitomy of the stupid girl from the Southeast.

She sings okay, but when I seen her as a contestant on "Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader", she was dumber than a 5th Grader for sure. She couldn't answer any of the questions put to her, the kids won for her. Imagine not knowing the Hungary is a Country? That's when my infasuation with her stardom ended.

Kelly you need to Repent of your Sins before it's to late! A day called Judgement Day is coming and God is going to be very angry with the wicked people, who have chose to become friends with this world! I have seen your talk shows and your clothes you wear and your hatred toward God Almighty! You might say Hatred! YES, you are with God or against god! Jesus christ was beat to death so that you might have life, But how have you repaid him? He gave you Talent you have used it to Glorify yourself and used it for your money and your Gain! Shame on You! Repent and Believe the Gospel!

jsmile16at 11-30-2008
this is no big deal. the reason why i say that is because we all knew that when she was on the show.
