Oops...I made a huge mistake on my app.

Applying to College
1

<p>On my parent's occupation,</p>

<p>I said that my dad was a "family restaurant owner" and that my mom was the co-owner.</p>

<p>And apparently, this is wrong because "family restaurant" implies something along the lines of big famous chains like "Friendly's family restaurant"</p>

<p>rather than a small little restaurant run by a family.</p>

<p>XD</p>

<p>Should I correct this?</p>

2

<p>doubt it's a big deal...</p>

3

<p>it won't matter, don't worry about it. It's not a mistake at all, they won't notice it.</p>

4

<p>"It's not Friendly's???!?! Liar! Reject him/her!"</p>

<p>Friendly's is awesome. Wish i had them where i moved now. </p>

<p>Don't worry about it in the least bit.</p>

5

<p>But what if they thought I was super rich and then compared my successes to those of other economically inclined students?</p>

6

<p>it's okay, the friendly's near me sucks and is really slow.</p>

<p>i'm sure it's fine :)</p>

7

<p>To me, a "family restaurant" is precisely what you described, not Friendly's lol.</p>

8

<p>^ Oh, lovely! Thanks.</p>

<p>Does anyone else think about "family restaurant" this way?</p>

9

<p>I think you are exactly right.</p>

10

<p>I think of "family restaurant" as you described also.</p>

11

<p>Family restaurant just implies that it's a restaurant the whole family can go to (nice, friendly, clean, no strippers, etc.). It doesn't imply that it's necessarily part of a chain.</p>

Assuming it's a normal family, of course. Other families might go on regular outings to the local strip club.</p>
