A Day In The Life Of A Girl Scout

    Cookie Season is upon us. And it's no joke.

    School's out! Time to get ready for your troop meeting.

    Oops, not that outfit.

    That's more like it.

    You recite the Pledge.

    Your troop leader hands out new badges.

    Hey look! Dolly Parton's here.

    And now the moment that officially kicks off Cookie Season: you get your (unbelievably complicated) order form.

    If your troop's extra savvy, you sell cookies directly to your customers.

    But otherwise, you go door-to-door in your neighborhood...

    Harass your friends and family...

    Before losing all interest and sending one of your parents to work with the order form.

    Thanks to the 21st century happening, chances are you now take cash AND checks AND credit cards.

    When you're done selling, you hand over the money to your troop leader.

    Weeks go by.

    Months.

    Years.

    Finally, the cookies arrive.

    Time for heavy labor!

    Your mom or dad spends their entire Saturday driving you around, dropping off cookies.

    Finally, you can enjoy the fruits of your labor.
