You can't.
Blaming an anxiety or any other psychological or psychiatric disorder or using stress as an excuse to fail at fast foods sets you up for failure.

I don't think it is blaming anything. Having social anxiety IS a real problem that can be a disability. I'm stunned someone who actually is mentally ill, themselves have this PULL YOUR SELF UP BY THE BOOTSTRAPS attitude. Or is it bitterness talking..?
Working in fast food ISN'T the easiest job on the market just because teens do it and it has crap pay. I'm sorry, but you confuse the low status of the job with the actual work input. Salt mines, coal mines were also not well paid, but was that an easy job? You think?
I've had many different kinds of jobs, and the way I personally function, I find being behind the registry as the hardest, and then I had jobs needing a lot more education, which were easier FOR ME ans an individual. Right now I work with animals and for me that is easy, even if those who don't have a good hand with animals would find it incredibly hard. We're all individuals with different types of skills.
You seem to think since you had to work psychotic, people should just suck it up. And not feel. Not have a breaking point. Not having weakness, because that is silly. Should just work harder, and accept it's hard? Well, everyone isn't superman. Some people aren't hardened, they might need a moral boost, and actually kind words to be urged to keep up the good fight.
Instead of a crappy, cynical, bitter attitude of SUCK IT UP.
