An average age does not mean that most people there are "30".

It can also mean that not only are there a lot of teenagers with their first jobs...but also a lot of senior citizens making some extra income (which is pretty much what I see at most McDonalds).

When you add up all the ages then divide it by the number of employess you probably come up with a number around "30"

This is called skewing statistics to make them appear to be something that they aren't.

For instance...I could take Dave Cummings (age 73) and shoot a scene with him and an 18 year old teen girl.
Then I could tell you that the average age of the performers in my video is 45 years old.

THAT is what it means when these people with an agenda tell you that the average age of a person working McDonalds is "30".

We all need to start using our brains and commons sense and stop falling for this bullshit.
