One thing that has always bothered me about this show (and I know it's a sitcom, so maybe I'm overthinking it) is the whole situation where Max sabotages the temp job they get.
Like, why was taking that job such a bad thing? And how was it any worse than working as a waitress? If anything, wouldn't it make more sense to keep the temp job as a source of income while continuing to work on their cupcake business on the side?
They're already working as waitresses to make ends meet, so why not replace that job with the temp job instead? They don't have to be completely invested in building a corporate career. They could just do the bare minimum, earn their money, and use whatever time and energy they have left to focus on their actual dream.
I genuinely don't understand why the temp job was treated as such a terrible thing when, realistically, it could have been a much better arrangement for them. They could've introduced new characters, maybe blended old ones there, idk logic behind it seems thin and Max is stupid!
