McDonalds Employees are Dumb

IMHO, every McDonalds experience is different. From the order-taking robot that hates their job (and hates you even more), to the variety of bonus or missing items you get as a result of a wrong order. You never know what to expect when you enter the golden arches. For example, with all its billions of dollars from its billions served, you would think they could pay someone enough to spell correctly… you would think!

    Why does it seem like the original label was removed…placed next to the tank (for whatever reason, perhaps a bit of mcdonal’s pay could help) and then a fake sign was written for kicks and giggles? And the posted to share the fun and joy with the vast internets?

    What is even more interesting, is that the contain is on the floor, and the normal cover the container, (located to the left of the container0 is off of it. So, how low did you have to stoop to get this picture? To make your self feel all big and bad to get some internet ‘lolz’? “In My Honest Opinion” (Learn how to type something out you lazy fuck) you are a poor poor boy desperate for attention.

  23. Dude, McDonald’s is well know and praised for hiring people with special needs. So you could be making fun of someone who is autistic or has down syndrome.

    Knowing this, I not only did not laugh but found this highly offensive and insensitive. The person that made that sign could have been doing the best they could and would be an acheivement for certain McDonald’s employees.

    Way to go jerk.

    I thought that was the idea of this stuff? The only decent food to be had there is the McRib, and that is only because it is unabashedly and horribly processed into deliciousness. There are no illusions of ‘this is sort of healthy, look at all that lettuce!’; it is only TASTE, and they will not let us have it.

    Wow, this is so fucking hilarious! You should get an award or something. Some ignorant minimum wage worker at the biggest fast food chain in America spells a word incorrectly and you have a photo of it. Good job! Fuck, you deserve a Pulitzer!

    You’d think that since the correct spelling is mere inches away from the product, that someone with the ability to write could copy.

    Hell, even someone lacking literacy could copy the shapes of the letters. :/

    You can’t generalize all McDonald’s employees as dumb just because one employee misspells a world. And misspelling a word doesn’t make you dumb.

    It’s funny, but you make it much more personal than it needs to be by saying “McDonalds Employees are Dumb”.

    Seems like you should probably say something like “Some McDonalds Employees are Dumb” and you wouldn’t look like such a judgmental jerk. ;)

    That’s America’s education program for you! Chances are, if you told the girl who wrote that sign there is a misspelled word on it, she’d more than likely write “Sweat Tee”.

Omg They said sweat tea. Yeah you WOULD THINK McDonald’s would hire someone to spell correctly. I’m just so happy you took the photo to prove it. Thanks you so much Ryan Deal, you pretentious little man.

    You know what people like you make this world feel like hell. I work for McDonalds and proud of it. It may not be the best job in the world but its a job. People like you who make comments like that obviously are not happy with your life. Why dont you fix your messed up life instead of degrading others, fix your problems and stop trying to cause more. Your the kind of person who doesnt even have a job or who has screwed up your life and think your gona screw up others, well newsflash you look like an idiot making those kinds of comments.
