* A job is what you make it and advancement is up to the individual who doesn't feel the world owes him a living.

"McDonalds trained one out of every 12 working Americans. McDonald's work experience teaches skills and values that last a lifetime. Employees gain skills that are required in many professional positions, including teamwork, customer service and leadership. As employees excel at McDonald's restaurants, they learn how to supervise others, communicate effectively and manage finances."

* Sure you start at a minimum wage but you are also PAID to have a chance to learn and advance. College students pay to learn job skills and then start looking for a job saddled in debt for a decade or longer.

* Flipping burgers is an ENTRY LEVEL JOB that gives a hard worker a chance. It's NOT a career.
