Tell them about your job at dairy queen, but don't say you were fired, that's if you were. Say something about the recession or some shit. Tell them what you did and try to link that to what you will be doing, like serving customers for DQ.
This is what you need to do, when I worked at Gamestop the dresscode was slacks and a black polo shirt. Need to present decent customer service skills and organization; will spend a decent amount of time re-organizing the shelves after everyone touches something and puts it wherever the hell they feel like.
