>Dear Jenny,
Have you ever worked at Macca-d-s before? I suspect you havent
because you seem unaware of the joys a team member at McDonalds
has. First of all we work as a team aiming for complete
customer satisfaction. One of the highlights comes when you
read the customer comments and they have nice things to say about
about you or your store. Two things essential to a human beings
welfare are also water and food.
We supply the second, so arguably McDonalds creates
a secure fabric for the modern society of today. The world needs
McDonalds, and hence McDonalds workers. We get low pay but at
the end of the day job satisfaction is what counts.Why don't you apply at your local store and sample the
enjoyment, cammaradie and fun a workplace like McDonalds
harbours.Yours faithfully,
Josh Magar
Floor Manager of McDonalds
