Fast Food Wars

There's a reason that McDonald's is considered the dredge, last stop, dead end hub of employment for all of the drug addict, unschooled, crackpots of the world.

It is.

I have worked for the golden arches for the better part of four years and as a boss of most of these self described bottom of the ladder types, I have a perspective unique as to the way these people think, act and react to what is expected of them in the working world.

It's important to realize that not every employee of Mcdonald's fits the above description. The reason for this is that there are a small percentage of people that are good, solid employees. I'd hate to have one of very few persons I actually respect from my years spent in that draconian pit of souls read this and perceive my retrospective malice as an assault on his or her character.

I'll put it simply. Let's say you are a nineteen year old, recently finished with high school, possibly in college, possibly not. Most likely in. You may have had a decent job in High School, you may just be leaving the umbrella of your parents. You have little work experience, at most a crappy stint in a grocery store or fast food restaurant from high school. So, you end up at McDonald's. Because your parents are better than most, you grew up with a certain ethic in regards to your work habits. You go to work each day, do your best, and due to a moderate allocation of brainpower, do a decent job. Of course, you're pretty young and probably not entirely happy with your new role as a fry slinger. I give you at most six months before you realize how incredibly under appreciated you are at your new job.

At this point, you will need the benefit of some elaboration in regards to the persons working above our young hero or heroine. Who calls the shots in the recently initiated journey of life for the new "crew members".
