[edit] Characters
Anaïs Boutin: a really mean girl, whose dream is to be "Employee of the Month". She is very possessive of her ex-boyfriend, Tché (pronounced "Chay").
Danny Pitre: Manager of the Montreal Captain Creighton. He is addicted to root-beer.
Ève Kapuscinsky: A vegetarian and a supporter of various pro-animal causes. She is a member of Equi-Eco (a group similar to PETA).
Patrick "Pat" Béliveau: Ève's boyfriend -- and avid girlwatcher. He and Anais are childhood enemies.
Sonia Compagna: A recording artist who's still far from the ranks of being a popstar. She is an avid fan of Celine Dion. Her ex-boyfriend JiCi not only left her, but stated in her contract for her first album that all money from the album goes to him.
Jonathan Gouin, a.k.a. "Tché": A heir to the Bernatchez food empire. He went out with Anais, but later broke up with her. He also briefly went out with Sonia. He and Pat are best friends.
Darius Léveillé: An eccentric, with a lot of tattoos and crazy hair. He once had a rat named Löthar but it died. Darius is known for eating weird combinations of foods, like fruits and spaghetti -- and even burgers and yogurt, which he once actually put on the Captain Creighton menu.
Sarah and Sandra McCormick: Little is known about them because they almost never go to work. We never see them (no actors designed - they don't exists for true).
[edit] Past Characters

[edit] Filming errors
- In the toilets, Captain Creighton is written in Capitain Creighton (the French translation of Captain Creighton) even if it's an american chain.
- The founder, Ben Creighton, is a ground army captain, however the employees wear U.S. Air Force uniforms.
