      No way the average person working at Mcdonalds does anything but blow 60k even if they get it.

      Edit: To be clear, I spent 4 years working at one. Good people, bad people, but not much economic sophistication in either group.

        Yeah, the fucking idiot will probably all blow it on something stupid like an ER visit.

        With the review bombing and public hatred of that McDonald’s location? Fired is more like it.

            The corporation? Definitely not. But review bombing and boycotting will hurt the profits of that franchised location, and its owner certainly will.

                Probably very few if any. Admittedly the outlier, I read Chipotle reviews because I’ve had too many of them give a time for pickup then proceed to dilly-dally for 20-30 mins past the time they gave me. Not cool. I’m happy to wait, but don’t tell me it’s going to be done.

                I have never looked at the reviews for a fast food franchise. They’re all much the same, which is kinda the point.

                  The food and ingredients are the same, but the quality can vary a lot depending on how bad of job they do cooking it. When you’ve been disappointed enough by buying dry and borderline-burned breakfast, you stop trusting that all locations are equal.

                When you’re an out of towner looking for the nearest place to go and get coffee or use a public bathroom, reviews matter.

          I meant more like, that’s the best accolade you may get as someone working for McDonald’s. But yes, McDonald’s absolutely has a reason to support the status quo in terms of corporate rule.

      They’ll let him order anything he wants off the dollar menu!

      Which is really just a pack of fries, minus the fries at this point, becaues what store has a dollar menu anymore?
