Now. I've only been working at -this- mcdonalds for a few weeks, but I used to work for mcdonalds for about 6 months, somewhere around 3-6 years ago. And it sucked. Not in the way a normal job sucks, but in the "if one more customer throws change at me one more fucking time im going to jump the counter and cockslap their children" sort of suckery.
Fast food jobs suck. And they suck -hard and long- but I have an insanely high tolerance for bullshit. Don't ask me how, or why, but I do, and god you need it for this type of job. Anyone in their mid 20s working a fast food job probably knows this, anyone else, probably doesn't... but I digress...
Higher ups want me to become management, because I have 3 years of food service management at another chain, assistant store manager no less... I figured, hey, lets move up the chain, make some more money, maybe even go somewhere with this, so sure, why not? Here's how the conversation went...
"Well, given your experience you'd make a great candidate for management..."
"Actually, I was thinking the same thing, as you know I've done it before and I know my way around a store...(and a whole bunch of other bullshit that made myself sound better...)"
"Were completely prepared to put you on the fast track for shift manager, then maybe night shift manager depending on job performance..."
"Well that sounds -great----------"
(Various bullshit regarding job related responsibilities)
"You have any questions about the position?"
"What about benefits and pay?'
"Well, you'd get full medical and dental..."
"And pay?"
"Well, our managers make an additional 50 cents an hour"
WHAT.
50 cents an hour? Lets think about this for a fucking second.
3 times the responsibility. To go from 8.50. To 9.00? Do I get to fuck my girlfriend on the front counter? Do I get to wax my ass with big mac buns?
Needless to say, I turned him down.
