Laura has worked at Crumbl Cookie since 2022.
"While repetitiveness can get old for some people, others absolutely thrive and crave this. Finding a job that relies on repetitiveness like scooping, weighing, shaping, and sometimes filling cookies, has been perfect. Being able to grab a delicious cookie to have with a big ole glass of milk is the chocolate kiss on top. I need money to do what I enjoy, and I like earning."
