My job at McD's paid my way through college. The only bad thing, well two things now that I thing about it: The poor man who had a heart attack in the lobby and died before help arrived~that was very, very sad. 2nd, the pervert who came through drive thru naked and tried to grab and pull me through the drive thru window. That wasn't much fun either. Other than those two things, I have many happy memories of my years flipping burgers! AND, I got free pie!
He probably could have sued McD's claiming the free pie caused his heart attack.
Why does everyone think that going through a drive thru naked is perverted? Dang! Seems logical. You don't want to get sauce on your clothes.0 -
PIE?! Gimme0

Oh I worked at Chick-fil-a for a while, not that hard to get an order right. But I much rather use a vegetable peeler on my whole body then go soak in a tub of lemon juice than work there ever again.
That sounds pleasant. May I watch?
Only if you bring me pie. Or cake, I will accept cake.0 -

You work at McDonalds, it's not even remotely hard or mentally challenging work.
Are you kidding me? I worked at McDonalds in high school and it was one of the hardest jobs I ever had. Dealing with people like you ALL day.
The feeling is mutual.
So, you deal with McDonald's employees all day? That explains some things.0 -

Why oh why did I actually click on this thread!?!?!?! Sorry but this is a rant.
The amount of derogatory comments about service employees is disgusting. I never worked at a McDonald's or any other fast food place, however I did work at several restaurants, including one I owned. What they say is true, everyone should work at a restaurant at some point in their life. A few things I've seen mentioned...minimum wage. Before you criticize the desire of restaurant employees to earn $15/hr do a bit of research on minimum wage.
"The minimum wage was designed to create a MINIMUM standard of living to protect the health and well-being of employees. Others have argued that the primary purpose was to aid the lowest paid of the nation's working population, those who lacked sufficient bargaining power to secure for themselves a minimum subsistence wage." Minimum wage was meant to ensure that big, greedy companies, like McDonald's, paid their employees enough to survive. Why? Because it will always be in their nature to try to undercut the little guy.
Here's a great tool to show you if people in your state can live on minimum wage http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2014/02/09/opinion/minimum-wage.html?_r=0 .
I used mine (MD $7.25/hr) and even with my expenses which I try to keep really low, to the point of living in a crap area, I'd be $22,364 in debt per year OR I'd have to work 60 more hours a week at a second job.
It's even worse for people who work for tips. Do you ever wonder why Europeans don't always tip, or don't get why we tip? Because they pay their servers a full wage. Waiters/waitresses make $2.13/hr. That's abysmal. As a nation we should be embarrassed that we even have wages that low. Sure they make tips, but you don't always get to keep what you earn. Some places pool tips, so you take less than you worked for. Some places make you share your tips with the kitchen staff. Others, take your tips, then pay you "a higher wage" which is still less than you'd make.
I would keep going, but I'd take up a whole page. *end rant*0 -
fast food service and places like mc donalds are not places that pay well......used to be, most workers were high schoo kids looking to make some spending money for the weekend.......I used to work in a Jack In the Box and really enjoyed it...I worked the grave yard shift during the summer months and on weekends while in high school
I made little, but helped me to save to go to college.............I didnt have 5 kids, stay single , then look for a job and demand 15 per hour...........those places arent going to pay that much
I work with college grads who make 15.00 an hour, people with a BBA and Magna Cum Laude grads who are making 13 - 16 an hour. These folks are going to be paying on school loans for years.......what special courses or cost can be affiliated with flipping burgers? There has to be a fairness in all of this//
Dont expect to get paid 15 an hour at Mc Donalds. Its not going to happen. Also, I got an education first........I didnt have 5 kids , no husband , then complain that things are hard..........I had priorities..........0 -
I don't have time to read all the replies, but even a fancy restaurant can screw up your order. I've gotten a free dessert or meal because my order came back wrong, or burned, or whatever. My daughter starts working at McDonald's tonight. You know minimum wage is over $7 now? Anyway, I'm looking forward to half price pumpkin I'll-call-it-pie-if-I-want-to pie and sweet chili chicken wraps. :drinker:0

The cops in my town start out around $15 an hour and risk their lives every day. Actually our Sheriff's Office deputies start out less than that. An employee at McDonald's better be making less than someone who risk their lives then.
I was making a little over $11 an hour and I had to have state statutes numbers, what they are and what incident would fit it and what wouldn't memorize and know arrest/offense reports and all the rules of what you can and can't have on there inside and out, which is a lot more mentally tasking than punching in an order and having the machine tell me how much change to give back or flipping a burger. Maybe if they counted back the change themselves.0 -
Along the sheriff/McD's wages...
I clean at the hospital and make way better hourly wages than both the EMTs/paramedics and security. It's really bassackwards.0 -
