BiPolar GUY was my only hope
Pros: nothing..its a paycheck. That is all. they are very picky, selective. UNFAIR. Biased to those who work under them.
Cons: no one considers you a human being, even with needs like food and drink. NON STOP 8 hour shifts  working five to six days a week and not one opportunity to rest until I was on the toilette. This McDonald was so under staffed that they had MINORS working 8 hours in the summer. and no breaks. Forget a break. especially if you are a cashier. I spent 4 out of 8 hour shift at a Turnpike serving  Trucker Traffic alone. I was doing the job of approx. 5 other people. and the manager was the only one making food and another night occurred the same way with  another manager and another worker and the actual STORE manager got mad at me for calling off when I had the flu. Another instance was less than  acceptable when there was hazing occurring between my coworkers against me. I would be the only one working when the others would gather in a gossip group behind the bread toaster and bun stacks to talk about me and how I didn't do my job.

Luckily. Not all McDonald are like this. The last one included the fact that I was a human and diabetic (type 1) and i needed to eat. The staff worked well with me, but my co-crew/cashiers seemed to have an attitude. they were understanding, but they had SO many people working there that i forgot almost everyone. No one was a regular. In return, I needed hours and hardly got any. I mean 15 or less hours a week. it was pathetic. and on my days off, I finally got recognition for coming in on the weekend at like 6 am to get some hours in. This company. Needs HELP
