It's really BUSY.

Pros

It's a job. It's not too difficult to get the hang of it in about 2 weeks depending on which ever area they [put you in.

Cons

They don't teach you everything right off the bat you have to be proactive and ask to be taught new things. Everybody learns how to cook fries, stock up, and clean but if I hadn't asked to learn how to be a cashier I might not have been taught it. I am still trying to get into the kitchen and learn how to cook burgers. The standing sucks too so make sure you buy some insoles/ Dr.Scholl's or thick socks.

Pros

Typical Fastfood Job - got 5 minute smoke breaks so that was nice. Also, half price on lunch...I'm loving me some cheap McDoubles

Cons

Always smelled like grease afterwards. Also, my girlfriend left me since I wouldn't give her any of my cheap McDoubles
