Quick background info: I quit my job at McDonalds and still have my uniform. I decided to go to a random McDonalds and just start working to see what happens.
So I went to a McDonalds in a nearby town around 4:00pm yesterday. I parked at a nearby store were I had a good view of the drive thru. I waited until the drive thru was very full to go to the McDonalds since they would be too busy to pay attention to me.
I casually walked in and pretended to clock in. I washed my hands and put on my gloves. There were only 3 worker's in the grill area. Two of them were busy on line and the other was frantically dropping 10:1s. When they saw me they told me to drop nuggets. I dropped nuggets and restocked the little freezer that was by the fryer, and continued working. One of them asked me if I was new, i just told him it's my 3rd day and he didnt question it.
After awhile once things calmed down one of the workers started teaching me how to do line. I just pretended like I had no clue what I was doing even though I did. I just occasionally made simple mistakes like putting diced onions on quarter pounders.
Things went downhill once the manager started asking us what breaks we've taken and which we haven't. I stayed quiet hoping he wouldnt ask me directly. The manager looked at me and said "and you?". I told him I havent had any of my breaks. He asked if I was new. I said yeah and gave him a fake name, Bradley Johnson.
He looked through his list and told me he couldn't find my name on the schedule. I said "Huh that's wierd, Im scheduled to work today from 4pm to 9pm". He then left to check the system. So i continued working.
Once he got back he said "Who are you, we dont have you in our system". I told him that their must be a mistake since I already had my orientation on Wednesday and I also worked Thursday. He left to double check and once he returned he told me that I wasnt in the system or the schedules. I told him I had no idea what's going on and that I'm as confused as he is. He was already kinda pissed at this point and he called the hiring manager.
As you could already guess he found out I wasnt an employee and he told me to get the fuck out or he was gonna call the police. I left and the crew member's were just talking with each other about wtf just happened.
Eh, this is a McDonald's's drive through. Can I please take your order?
I’ll grab it by the ice cream instead of by the cone
Carefull, this can lead to :biden-nibble:
