Employment status: former

I loved it, but I needed more money
Pros: Easy to grow, meet new people and establish employment history. After six months, I got a rasie and was promoted to a crew trainer, then seven months later, got promoted to management. Raises come about every 6 months. I loved working at McDonald's in every position I was in, and would've loved to continue moving up but after 3 years I was still making only 10.55. Management experience helped me a lot in the jobs I've worked since.
Cons: Raises are small (but frequent!), customers can be rude and very messy, coworkers are often extremely lazy and/or unwilling to put in effort or even show up. If that's the case for you, don't expect raises or promotions ever. It's annoying having to pick up extra slack because of unreliable employees. Machines break frequently, which caused upset customers and sometimes made the lines go much slower.
