Its been a min since i saw it, but here ya go

Hey, does anyone know where I can find one of those kiosk opening keys? It’s the circle shape that gets inserted to open up the computer parts of the kiosk. My store only has one and nobody can keep track of it.

Some junior staff doing the line really dont realise they are getting same money you are so only worried for they’re work being delayed and don’t care about anyone else.. Doing grill for hour barely time to scrape oil ofnthe top and this guy say “ oh you need 40 of whatever on the uhc not 20” Im not slow on purpose but this kind of thing certainly won’t motivate me to go any faster

Thank the fucking stars that it's sauce in a bottle separately and not sauce in the UHC tray.

had an interview on thursday at 3pm. i arrived about 10 minutes early and it went relatively well, the guy interviewing me said it would take 24-48 hours to get a response, its currently been about 50 and still nothing. is this normal or are they sometimes a bit late? and do they sometimes just not reply if you don't get the job?

Ever since the steak items were added, my store hasn't hit our OEPE target because we moved to a system where they only count our peak periods that last around two hours each... Wouldn't seem like a big deal, but all it takes is literally 1 A-hole to ruin the entire period's times, which is SUPER common and almost guaranteed in my area. Me myself yesterday had to deal with around 3 cars in a row where a customer either just sat in the DT trying to figure out how to use their app or tried doing that one app exploit that allows them to redeem multiple rewards at once, during a peak period.

And this isn't even mentioning the steak's popularity despite cooking as long as a quarter pounder. All it takes for production to stall is an order queue of 5+ steaks (also really common).

Before the system switch, we consistently hit OEPE because we balanced out the slow rush periods with quicker calm periods. We've literally been ranked in the top 10 nationally before and one of the top in the state, but we can't hit OEPE anymore. Our sales are GREAT. I ran an overstaffed shift the other day and we hit our labor targets anyways, by a heavy margin too.

McRant over, I'm gonna go cry in a corner now and pray Ronald saves me.

I’ve been working for 5 months now in the back area kitchen (fry, grill) and I wanna change to front counter

So i'm a new hire like maybe 3 weeks including training, and I'm mostly in Fried Area, Grills or fries.

Sometimes our GM, who knows me personally cause he interviewed me, would hound my ass saying i should go faster and that I move too careful. I've also done some fuck ups on grills where i forget to set it to the right options so sometimes the patties are undercooked or overcooked. But that doesn't happen alot recently since I learned.

I'm very quiet and only responds to calls about low or empty trays, I also always say yes with whatever they want me to do like backhalls, picking up trash outside the store when there's downtimes, bar towels, refilling fry hoppers etc. With my quietness and shyness I often thought they weren't speaking to me and dismiss some of them so they kinda repeat it in kind of a pissed voice and asks me to respond back.

I feel like my speed and communication with them has quietly improved a bit compared to my first week where i was just really awkward.

So yeah, do you guys think i'll pass the 3 month probationary period? how stupid do i have to be to not be able to pass it?

and our families cant either apparently? how is that fair 😭 i literally have been purposely getting large fries for the stickers.. i wasnt told about this once 😔

I worked at a McDonald's in the early 90s, closing shift. We ate so much. All the time. Clocking out with a 20 piece box stuffed with 50 nuggets, a triple quarter pounder with a grilled chicken pattie and a half inch of cheese slices. We stole boxes of hash brown wrappers, not for the Monopoly pieces but for the free cheeseburgers and fries so we could eat for free at other McDonald's. The opening manager set up the soft serve machine first thing in the morning so we could come in after a night of drinking and he would have pancakes topped with ice cream and strawberry sauce. It was the best job I ever had. The crew was tight and did thing right, cause all the slackers were there to eat. And probably the cleanest ice cream machine ever, I broke it down at night and I wasn't going to do a half assed job.

So, I signed the offer and have been waiting to be called into work. Its been 2 weeks, I asked my shift manager, he said that i will be called in for an orientation and then can start working shifts. but how long before i can start working? How long, since you signed your offer, did you guys waited before actually starting work?

Thanks in advance!

I would like to work at the ol’ Golden Arches. My local store “pays between X and Y) how do I negotiate for Y pay? I have the relevant experience, but how and when do I negotiate/beg for higher pay? Thanks!

Just seems like the lid is usually filled but maybe I’m imagining that 😭

Anyone ever been requested to make this ? Any other combinations you’ve been gatekeeping ?

We’re having a discussion in the economics sub reddit right now. A Redditor claims to have worked at McDonalds and says it an easy job. What are your thoughts or opinions?

This just seems like the perfect place to talk about Saturday night graveyard shift. I was an employee from 17yo-18yo and about halfway through my employment got put on Saturday night grave yard shift (10pm-6am). Every Saturday there was either a bottle in the walk in or we would have “system issues” from 2-3am and close the store, not take orders, and blatantly smoke weed outside in the parking lot in plain view of everyone coming through. The amount of times I would I would see people come through with full dab rigs in their laps or bottles open in the car and be offered substance was insane. Probably one the most fun shifts to work as almost nothing got done till 4am and everyone in store was wrecked poor choices aside kind of miss those days being a degenerate with people 3 times my age for no reason.

Everyone when the top dogs come down from their castle, all smiles and hugs/ pats in the back. They not aware or not want to sort out issues it seems

Me and my Gf worked 1.5 at mcdonald's and our manager begged us to work 3rd bc we know how to do everything and they needed people. They begged us to do it and said we would get 13/hr (NC). We agreed to it and then they had us scheduled for next wednesday to start on 3rd shift. The next day we come in they ask us to work 3rd shift the next day and we were the only people there besides the other manager. I have received to paystubs that still don't have our updated pay on there so i messaged my manager and she has been ignoring it. What will i do to get my raise or money. We worked a good 4 weeks of 3rd shift. Anything helps

I’ve been working here since May now and only completed training shifts around 3 shifts ago

I haven’t been rostered since August and it’s now October.. I don’t know why they haven’t been rostering me as my availabilities are pretty high (4-7pm) for 6 days a week

I’m thinking about asking a shift manager for more shifts, but idk who to ask since there’s like 3 of them

And I also dk why they’re not rostering me because every time I come back to work after more than a month it takes time for me to remember how to do stuff and I feel stupid since I should know everything already

I have advertised a shift that someone I know is going to take. However when he has gone to accept it he can’t see in on the trade board. Any ideas?

this sounds like a dumb question but what do yall say when you have a spanish speaker in the drive thru about the mobile app i don’t wanna sound stupid or too formal lol someone gimmie their script for spanish orders :D tysm

Please any help understanding this, am I being fired like?

I started at McDonald’s at least over 2 months ago. It started out good at first, then as time dragged on things became more and more strict. Limiting personal freedom. One thing that really grinds my gears is that my schedule isn’t even set up right, I changed my schedule and my hours are bizarre now. And I took time off at least a week ago, and I’m scheduled to work this weekend on my time off. I was thinking of putting in my two weeks but I don’t have another job lined up. What do you guys suggest I do?
