My Ex-husband SKULL-BUITRE ran off to Colombia with OUR money and screwed me after I helped him build OUR business.
He is hiding in Colombia and never paid the settlement $ from our divorce!
lol everything that could possibly happen to food has happened at mcdonalds, think about it. millions of burgers a year for decades.... hundreds of thousands of employees over that time......
the one thing i heard was that a guy once sued them after the coffee he allegedly purchased got spilled on his lap while inside the car. he claimed that he was "seriously injured" by the hot coffee. his argument in the court was that there was allegedly no written warning on the container that the coffee was hot so he blamed them for his injuries. apparently, he won the case and since then, McDonald's have put a written warning on their containers.

I worked at McD's when I first left school. I did the induction day and the training -
sad I can still remember the cooking times for a Big mac / regular and 1/4 with cheese -
I lasted all of a three weeks - I was caught giving food to mates and charging em 5p for ketchup.
The sickest things they do that I saw were, in no paticular order;
NEVER threw away shake mix - we had loads of bags hanging in that had traces of shake mix in, once it had all run to the corner it was added to the shake machine - and guys it was not like a pint of mix it was more like a shot!
The Onions used to be shipped in from the USA and we added water to them to make em look like onions!
But the best was the pickles - these used to come in post! I have never eaten one since.
this is going back some 15 years I hope things have changed. I did learn one thing from Mcdonnalds though, process - they have it down to a fine art better then any blue chip I have worked for since -
did I spit in the food??????? Only the once when a bird asked for cheese burger with no meat, she got a grolly burger.
All in all it was not so bad in my eyes I respect anyone that works for living as apposed to claiming benefits/welfare - may a stint for the lazy people who think the world owes em living in McDonnalds will make them learn.
Oh, I also heard the fries were made from pulped potatoes, but according the book - Gridding it Out
the story of mcdonnalds their fries were stored in water butts to stop the rats getting them, they then washed out as much starch as possible to give them their unique taste.
The guy that started it all really does represent the american dream, this guy had nothing and spent 18hours a day selling vending machines before he opened his first drive through selling burgers at 5 cents or there abouts.
I read the book as no matter what we think of them now its one hell of a acheivement - BTW the squadies in Iraq (My cousin is there) wreckon if they open a Piza Hut and McDonnlads it would cheer up the locals :
I just went to Grouphug.us and searched for "Donalds"
on the first page:
Iam the manager of a mc donalds for the past 5 years. For about 3 year of working there I'd come 15 minutes early, just to put the hamberburger buns in between my butt. I feel realy bad about doing it but i still do it anyways.iam such a basterd
I live by 'what you don't know won't harm ypu'. I've never yet got an upset stomach from McD's unlike chinese, Indian and kebabs. Ok I mave have 10 heart attacks before I'm 50 but that's little to do with the preperation
No one seems to like McDonalds, yet I believe that a lot of it is down to jealousy.
After all its just a question of their business model...
Hire cheep, pay minimum wage, but above all, ensure that the ration of the % of waste,
is directly aligned to the % profit, is why they are undeniably so successful
That's also the reason that they have so many urban myths surrounding them too...
You see the simply reason behind their success is this...
They unlike their competitors, actually use nearly 98 % of the cow...
Other company's only use around 67% and with cows costing much the same worldwide, the biggest company using nearly 35% more of the product for free, means they have phenomenal profits...
For example, you know the 'gritty taste in the Shakes ?
That's actually the ground up bones of the cows !
Seriously.
I'm not on a wind up...
They are able to get away with it, because the grinding of the bones is performed in a sterile location, and also because of the sheer amount of calcium that it adds to the shake itself...
things aren't that much better at better restaurants - the same stuff goes on back in the kitchen at good restaurants - not as often as people want to believe.
I moved my sites to Vacares Hosting. I've saved money, my hair is thicker, lost some weight too! Thanks Sly!
