r/McDonaldsEmployees

title pretty much. I want to know what the job will involve on a more honest level. I've been vaguely clued in but I feel like there's more I should know, especially from other employees

This might not be the right place/flair to ask this, i apologize if that's the case🙏

I'm omw to my shift and realized i forgot my undersweater at home, there is no way of me going back and retrieving it without missing my shift.

The problem is i have huge self harm scars all over my left arm, and i havent told anyone at work or shown them there before. I've been so diligent with wearing a sweater underneath my shirt that I've had coworkers assume im muslim as the reasoning for why I've worn it all this time😭😭

Is it possible i could get fired if i showed up at work with no undersweater? Would i be reprimanded for having my scars be visible? The people there r usually strict

I'm 17f and this will be my first job if it goes well😭😭

Pls give me tips that aren't just "be alive and breathing".

Ok....I'm trying to figure this situation out and here is what I've come up with.

Previous scheduling manager is training at another store to be a GM. So someone new is doing the schedule. For the 2nd week in a row the new manager doing it has schedule me to work a day i am unavailable. I have a weekly therapy appointment. I have always been unavailable on this day since started working there a year and a half ago.

I did tell her after the first time if it happened again I would put my shift up. HOWEVER she has me schedule for 5am that day. I ADORE the weekday opening manager do here's what im thinking. We both have to be at work at 5am tomorrow. I'm thinking of talking to her tomorrow explaining what's going on and TELLING her NOT asking that I will work the first 4 hours until 9 and after that I have to leave because of my appointment. There are at the MOST 4 people in the store at that time so I won't leave her in a lurch because someone can't listen and is scheduling me when I can't work. Does this sound like a good compromise to this situation?

Hey 👋 I'm 22F and i've just completed my training to work at McDonalds. I'll be working overnight shifts a few times a week (3-4 nights), and generally from 10pm or 11pm - 6am.

I've got a few questions regarding overnight shifts:

How do they run?

What's it like?

What kind of jobs do you do during that timeframe?

How tiring is it initially and do you adapt over time?

And how does it affect you outside of work? The goods and bars?

Hi there my three kids will have a doctor appointment on July 18 all are getting a shot and I was just wondering if y'all know if when the fifa squishmallows will be gone I'm sorry if this is wrong subreddit

Today was a rough day. I've been at my store for several years. There have been ups and downs over the years, but that's to be expected at pretty much any job. Today though I just wanted to walk out and quit.

A couple weeks ago I forgot to bring something from the freezer. The people at my store, at least the ones in the morning, refuse to go in the freezer. Their excuse is "Oh I'm hot from the kitchen, I don't want to get sick" and also "Going in the freezer to get stuff is a man's job" So they have the GM convinced that they shouldn't go in there and now I have to get everything for them.

Whatever.

It was a busy day for me with doing the truck and all the other maintenance tasks by myself. I just simply forgot to get some stuff from the freezer for lunch before leaving.

I come in the next day and the kitchen people were yelling at me because I didn't bring something from the freezer. I told them that I forgot and apologized.

I thought that was that

Fast forward to today. The folks in the kitchen were talking mad trash about me. They're Spanish and think I don't understand the language, but in reality I know it. For hours they were going on and on about how I'm a bad person, how I'm lazy, how I don't have a heart, saying that I'm racist towards Spanish people, making fun of me because I don't have a wife or kids. Someone of them claiming because I don't have a wife or kids that I'm gay. And while I'm not gay, who cares if I was anyway?

I did my best to ignore everything, but like I said it was going on for hours. It was pretty uncomfortable.

Then the GM decided to join in on the fun they were having and started to instigate shit further. Instead of stopping it, the GM made it worse.

Anyway. One of the worst days I have had working there. Thanks for reading!

Hi yall i just called in sick and my manager asked me to call them back in a few hours once my shift has already started. She knows im sick and am not coming to work today. However i do not understand what i should call back for.

Idk if it was fake. It had the blue line. It honestly just looked so damn fake. It was a $100 bill from 1999. This happened right after I told my manager I won’t fuck up no more.

Title says it all

Yo what kind of slave shit is this? As if standing for 8 hours isn’t bad enough already. It’s weird they even care.

It was 104 degrees on the way back home too. It was a small plastic cup with ice and I’m in full uniform with a high visibility vest on and these murderous anti slip shoes

Edit: It’s unreal this post even got downvoted twice.

I used to be a lifeguard and the auditors would hand out Gatorade to all of us in the middle of our shifts and we were responsible for making sure people didn’t drown at the pool

I’m still cracking up. I’m cleaning lobby, see someone at the door so I do my usual and open it a bit and try to help cause most of the time it’s missing items from drive orders. This dasher says basically hey I already dropped off this order but the customer says they’re missing nuggets, so after some back and forth and calling, I get her said nuggets, she thanks me so I say “have a good night and drive safe,” she didn’t turn around or say anything. Later I’m covering a break in front drive and have a view of our front door and I see her again and she asked a coworker for a manager, I let her know I helped her a bit ago with the missing nuggets from DD. My manager (who I’m totally cool with and knows me) comes back shaking her head and looks at me and says “she was upset you told her to drive safe.. I can’t make this up”

Considering it’s holiday weekend and also it’s late (like 10:30-11 at this point), am I the cracked one for saying that? Like I genuinely wished this person well.
