once I jokingly told the ownere/operator at my store I was considering it,
and he said I should consider looking for a new job.The sad thing is when it comes to McDonalds is, you are expendable,
no one is the key to sucess at the store, the store can go on with out you,
you are not needed. Therefore anything you try to do that does not benifit
the boss will cost you your job.
None.
