I worked for McDonalds for about a month as a teen in 1986. It was pretty hectic during breakfast, lunch and dinner. Nice high pressure job for $3.35 an hour and 50% off food. But by then I had already been working at various places starting at 12.

After I got out of the Corps, I worked at a McD’s near my house…I stayed for 10 hours before I threw my shift supervisor against the side of the freezer because he had been a local high school football “star” and thought he was better than his crew. He yelled at everyone…treated them like shit…but…fuck him…I wouldn’t tolerate it…and put him in his place…then quit.

Times have really changed. Back in the day it was not uncommon to run into bosses that were psychopaths. I think after running into you, that guy probably thought twice before acting like that. I also had a crazy manager once at one job. He acted like he was guzzling caffeine or taking meth.

These days are quite different. People are so afraid of offending people or they are stupid and lazy and barely competent. They are way too distracted watching videos and dont really care about their jobs. And this is if you can actually find people to work. Lots of people want to be paid to sit around and do nothing. They never get promoted or do anything to earn a promotion.

I'd rather have that than a mass shooting due to a workplace disagreement. Looking at phones is basically copium from a shitty reality of a dead end jobs and we severely underestimate mental health.

FFS we don't even give people paid vacations.. and in Europe you get 2 months off!

Think one of my neighbors was telling me even the Army/ Navy/ Airforce in India understands mental stress and requires 2 months paid holiday taken every year. I'm not sure how much paid leave the US armed forces get but I'm thinking it's not more than 4 weeks.

If those poor countries and rich countries can understand mental health.. why can't we?

If you actually worked for a living instead of sponging off the people who do, you would know you are full of shit. Get a job, parasite.
 
Imagine voting g for someone who pretended to work at McD’s for barely a shift. Haha, I swear the GOP thinks so poorly of their voters that they do this to try and win votes? Lmao

Or, people don't want to be treated like shit and exploited. Two things capitalism does exceptionally well.

I have about 2 people with of work and there appears to be 0 chance of getting any help in the future. I am fairly confident that my boss's boss is hostile towards our group and refuses to do anything to help us (or drags his feet as much as possible). You're damn right I am trying to prevent myself from burning out.

Edit: fixed an autospell typo

Damn you guys have an abnormal obsession with everything Trump does. Do you dream about him when you sleep too?

It's actually a handy resource. This place tracks every word Trump says, so all I have to do is skim through the rage hyperbole then find the actual story with context. I do the same thing at a far right place I visit to find information about Harris.
Work smarter, not harder.

Trump pretty much mentions that Kamala lies about working at McDonald’s in like every rally

if trump did not do that we would not have happened

This lies 100% on trump and no one else

Well it's a lot like Biden walking (standing) on the picket line for about 10 minutes. Harris going to the border for 20 minutes...

Photo Op for political points. They All do it.
