Ep 1. Take This Job And Squeeze It (Pilot)

Take This Job And Squeeze It is the pilot episode for the animated series 6teen. The episode begins with a group of six teenagers, Jude, Nikki, Jen, Wyatt, Caitlin, and Jonesy, all meeting up at the Galleria Mall for their first day of work at the mall's various stores.

Jude is excited to be working at the new sports store, while Nikki is not looking forward to her job at the Khaki Barn, a clothing store that she doesn't believe in. Jen is working at a fast-food restaurant, and she is already struggling with the job's demands and the stress of working with her boss, Ron. Wyatt has gotten a job at Stick It, a store that specializes in selling skateboards and other extreme sports equipmen, and he's excited to be working with his best friend, Jude.

Caitlin is working at the Big Squeeze, a juice bar inside the mall, and she immediately makes an impression on her boss, Julie, with her bubbly personality and can-do attitude. Meanwhile, Jonesy, who is the self-proclaimed ladies' man of the group, is working at the Penalty Box, a high-end sports equipment store.

As the group starts their jobs, they quickly realize that working at the mall is not as easy as they thought it would be. Nikki is already having problems with her boss at the Khaki Barn, and Jen is struggling to keep up with the fast pace of her job at the fast-food restaurant. Wyatt and Jude are having a hard time selling skateboards at Stick It, and Jonesy is not doing much better at the Penalty Box.

Caitlin is the only one who seems to be thriving, impressing her boss at the Big Squeeze with her ability to make the perfect smoothie. But even her job is not without its challenges, as she has to deal with a demanding customer who wants her smoothie customized in a very specific way.

Throughout the episode, the group tries to support each other through their first day on the job, but things quickly start to spiral out of control. Jen can't handle the pressure at the fast-food restaurant and ends up quitting on the spot, while Nikki continues to clash with her boss at the Khaki Barn. Wyatt and Jude's attempts to sell skateboards only end up getting them in trouble with their boss, and Jonesy gets fired from the Penalty Box for flirting with a customer.

In the end, the group meets up at the Big Squeeze, where Caitlin is working overtime to keep up with the demand for her smoothies. They all commiserate about their terrible first day on the job and lament their lack of experience in the working world. But despite their struggles, they all agree to give it another shot and return to work the next day.

Take This Job And Squeeze It sets the stage for the rest of the series by introducing the six main characters and the various challenges they will face as they navigate the working world. Over the course of the series, the group will face everything from workplace romances and office politics to dealing with difficult customers and crazy bosses. But through it all, they will stick together and support each other as they try to make it through the ups and downs of life as a teenager in the working world.
