    I havent been to McDonalds for ages now, whenever I go by one the bins are always overflowing. Last time I went was with a friend to one near Morecambe and we just did the drive through and the bins were over flowing and rubbish flying round the car park and I got the wrong drink and the food wasnt up to much eitehr!

    A friend worked in a McDonalds during her student days and that was a franchised one. Not sure about others though.

    Had a lousy drive through a few years ago (and have only been back once since - fool me!) that took 20 mins for the other 2 cars in front of me to get served. Only problem was that I was running late for a rugby match and meeting up with a friend, and by the time I'd been waiting for 1 min there were already 2 other cars behind me with NO other way of getting out!

    I find McDonalds objectionable on the following counts:
    -high fat content
    -high sugar content
    -low pay
    -ugly buildings
    -litter strewn car parks
    -all that jolly ronald mcdonald nonsense
    -the heavily chav weighted customer base
    -monoculture of every town having an outlet on the bypass

    Drive throughs are even worse.

    Compare all that with a decent greasey spoon cafe.
    Happy chappy

    mr mob had a row with maccy d's over a breakfast. they stated they couldnt cook just one as it was 10.25am because they had to make five at a time !!?? he pointed out they advertise their brekfasts are served until 10.30am and had a huge row with them.

    he got his breakfast.

    somebody told me there is a tiny switch on the back of some of the tills in maccyds. if you can press it when no ones looking it locks the whole till up.
    There's someone in my head, but it's not me

    one word: "TEH" :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
    The word is BOUGHT, not BROUGHT.
    It's LOSE, NOT LOOSE.

    i resent teh poor hygfiene remark and i suggest to refer to my earlier comments about how hard FM's swork to make the place a safe place to work and eat!

    I resent being in the toilets of one of these establishments taking a !!!!!!, when someone was in the cubicle taking a dump, wiping up, then flushed, then walked straight out the door without washing his hands! And the worst part he was in uniform, an employee, on his way to shuffle more burgers and buns no doubt.
