Dear Whooper (I love your username!) =), I would like to say, thank you, to you, for taking the time and effort to both upload and share this video with the youtube family =). I hope you have a lovely day, Whooper! =). Kind Regards Ray (From Sydney, Australia) =)
Funny skit, but having worked at Maccas in the past, the reason they ask if you want a meal or just the single item is because the POS System McDonalds has requires you to be specific, not because they're trying to upsell you; it's a huge pain in the ass to have to find the item, click it, remove it and then re-add it as a meal, so most people at the counter save themselves the trouble by just double-checking with the customer.
thesliMepisodes Great. This has nothing to do with my comment. An anecdote about working at McDonalds and using their POS system (as a teenager, not as someone who has to support a family too) is not the 'remedy' to the gross transgressions made by mega-corporations. Being able to spew out facts doesn't denote any level of intelligence. It makes you look desperate to cover for your moronic fuck up.
banj0 Look banj0 ill put my moronic fuck up to you this way. I didn't realize how much i hurt your feelings so i removed the comment. However, the truth of the matter is people care more about the gross transgressions of McDonalds and the dirty fucking shit they put in their food, more-so than their fucking POS system. So as for being desperate to cover my moronic fuck up, at least i didn't work at the devils palace known as fucking McDonalds you clown.
AussiePoker King Business is booming because the shit they put in their food is addictive and tastes good, all whilst having corporate advertisements telling kids that they are a healthy and a fun place to be. That doesn't mean it is good for you. Props to you then, but there's plenty of people just like you in the world. Millions actually, so don't feel bad.
AussiePoker King I assumed you felt bad due to the fact you are telling your story as if i should feel sorry you were in that position, when the reality of it is millions are. What is with this mooching and loser business? You are aiming that at me yet i was the kid that put my head down and achieved results. Yet here you are talking to me about respect lol. Plus you have stated that opinion twice, starting to sound like something you say to comfort yourself. Hahahaha! Not addictive? No there is nothing wrong with the foods fast food companies sell, or the way they advertise. Whatever makes you sleep at night you keep telling yourself those things. Quote "I had access to free Hungry Jacks 3-4 times a week from 14-15 yrs old", you just contradict yourself.
I work at maccas and my managers are always on my case to upsell I don't though.Guys the reason we ask if you want a meal is that you get customers that say "A cheeseburger thanks" and then when they receive the food they say "doesn't it come with fries and a drink".
So what do you class as an Australian? I thought a person that was born in Australia was Australian?? So you have to be white to be an Australian do you?? You're an idiot.
they say the immigrants want to steal my job and just bring drugs into the country, but you gotta look at the upside..... their gonna do my job AND.... give me drugs whats all the drama about?
They're not all like that though. Three years ago I worked at a different Mcds in another part of town which was owned by a different person and I told the managers that I refused to upsell but they didn't mind since they always had me taking orders. It probably helped that the owner hardly ever came by, since she has a life and trusts those who she hired to run the company for her.
Don't Worry I know those feels, Drive Thru is the most annoying because no one says in a meal.. plus my managers are so lovely with every order we have to suggestive sell.. so yes Maccas is pretty horrible.
(1/2) I work at Mcds right now and I'd only ask if that's just the burger or the meal because in my experience, alot of people would say they want nuggets for example and then when you tell them their total, they'd be like oh that was the meal btw. So now I just ask to save time ringing in things. I despise upselling with a passion, but the owner of my store is a modern day Scrooge and demands you always upsell.
its supposed to be Australia but all you see are Asians and Indians see they are taking aussie jobs,i dont hate them just it should be Australians working in Australia.
