    it was a customer

    also don’t think for a second any corporation wouldn’t throw you under a bus just for the fun of it

      Every single article I’ve found states the snitch is an employee. Where have you seen it being said it’s actually a customer?

    C’mon y’all. You know if you go to a non-chain Latino restaurant nobody’s calling the cops.

      I asked for vegetarian options at a McDonald’s once. They offered a tomato sandwich. They rang up a hamburger, no meat, add tomato, which means they charged me for the tomato even though they saved the cost of the beef.

      I don’t know how it works where you are from, but it seems reasonable to assume team membership when you wear their costume, get compensated by them, and perform tasks on their behalf to further enrich said team.

        do you work for minimum wage?

        I don’t think anyone is completely devoid of responsability for the work they do, no matter how alienated. but I also think the share of responsability goes up with salary - if you have more options then you have more choice

          I would argue that the lower your salary, the more choice you have in where you spend your time to earn it. Let’s not skip past the fact that working at McDonald’s is not mandated, and there are not job assignments doled out to people with their birth certificate. A choice was made, and the rest follows.

              Of course, but you are being obtuse in moving away from your original argument. Otherwise, why not just get a higher paying job instead of minimum wage lololol. Discarding that, it’s an obvious fact that there are fewer job opportunities at higher wage classes as you proceed up through them, so my point to your diversion stands.

    The fact the snitcher worked at McDonald’s is completely irrelevant. Corporate didn’t make them do it. That person doesn’t represent the entire company and their views. It’s just a fuckin person. They could have recognized him, smiled to themselves and moved on and McDonald’s would never have known a thing about it.

    Out of context, but…

    Burger king has the worst fucking burgers ever

    I had better burgers made with a single slice of beef and that’s it

    The first time I tried to eat a burger from burger king I assumed I was just too bent on appearances

    Holy shit.

    Oily. So oily.

    It’s not edible.

    I left it, with just two bites and I had to rush to the toilet, because Jesus Christ not only did it ruin my appetite, I wasn’t even fulfilled and I felt SICK.

    So anyway, instead of burger king I’m just going to somewhere… Hm… Maybe a local restaurant? We literally have BBQ Döner here
