Working at McDonald's
It is not a good idea to choose to work at McDonald's as a part-time job for a student. The job has lots of responsibilities. You need to clean the work place before and after the job time as if you are a houskeeper. It is really a heard job for anybody. Every time you need to do something. In example, flipping burgers, giving change, making smoothies and milk shakes. The small pay of $6.25 barely allows you to buy nice shoes. Although no special skills are required to work at a fast food restaurant, no skills are gained there either. There is practically no experience of any sort acquired on this job. In addition to that, no insurance benefits are offered. Seeing big, lazy people there creates fatigue in workers. I wouldn't be surprised if some first time workers would feel nauseous or disgusted with the look of overweight customers, especially kids. All that boredom of standing behind the counter encourages employees to reach out for burgers, or whatever is close. McDonald's is the last place a person would like to work at. It takes guts to continue working at this place.
