    I worked at a McDonald’s as a teen. Someone came through the drive thru and gave me their application. I immediately gave it to my manager who proceeded to throw it away in front of me. His reason was that the person didn’t care enough about the job or some bullshit. I was then ordered to throw away any other applications received through the drive thru.

    I hated that job

      Burger King vibes, I worked a lot of fast food places when I was younger but Burger King was the most dreadful, disorganized place. McDonald’s already won the burger wars like 50 years ago and Burger King is in no rush to innovate at all.

        BK has the impossible whopper at most of their locations, which is an innovation vegans/vegetarians appreciate. McDonald’s barely attempted with plant-based options. They even use beef in their fries.

          Yeah, I guess I was broadly speaking about their actual corporate procedures though. Like at BK you’re supposed to just magically know how much of the ingredients go on each sandwich whereas McDonald’s has the self-measuring salt shaker, ketchup, mustard, etc. dispensers.
