Now, if you have something that doesn't suck and is IT-related, we can talk.[/QUOTE]
Talk to SSP or one of it's branches (Jimm's, FSP, LoimaaNET, etc.)
i got into harvard because they really fuckin liked my crews video
[QUOTE=Ermac20;29510790]who would wanna work at mcdonalds anyway[/QUOTE]
Someone who is at college and likes getting money rather than sitting on their ass doing nothing all day
McDonald's was my first job (I've managed to get in a better spot in a local store) and I can say it was the worst 2 months. Wasted a good part of the summer. The working conditions are shit, everyone's a huge ass. Thankfully I worked in the kitchen for the most part, but when you're a cashier people are huge asshats
Eh, a job is a job.
Which one has a higher rate leading to successful lives? :v:
The harder one.
But all you do at mcdonalds is flip burgers?
I call bullshit
I know 5 people at my high school who work at various McDonalds yet there ain't nobody that's gotten accepted into Harvard

Learn what a statistic is before you start talking.
At least some companies are doing mass hiring like this, it is hard to find something. Might seem like a small amount, but 62 thousand people just got hired and now are a contributing factor to society.
Im surprised at the amount of people here who work/worked at McDonalds
I really am.
I applied for McDonald's and their hiring day.
Didn't get hired :smith:
I had a hard time finding a job after I got graduated from highschool 3 years ago, I put in applications everywhere and not one single company called me, until recently last 2 months, wal-mart called me about my application about when am I available to work, and I said "any" and then she said "oooooookkkkkkkk....." then she hanged up on me :/, I call back 2 days later and they only got position open for people greeter and cart pusher, I wanted cart pusher but they never called me back...
Mcdonald's did not hire me after 2-3 applications I filled, Best buy won't hire me after I did about 2-3 applications, Aerotek won't hire me, Wal-Mart won't really hire me, Factory Card/Party Outlit didn't hire me... I have to go to a temp service or go military.
All the jobs I saw here required 2 years of experience. Couldn't find any

Don't let that stop you from applying. You might get lucky and get a job regardless of your experience level if the person interviewing you likes you.

I never applied for McDonalds, but I got rejected for a job as on the online application I put indifferent for most of the questions. :v:
Hey least I didn't lie and suck up. :c00l:

I find that fucking retarded, you can't get a job because you don't have experience, but you can't get experience without a job.

I'd rather suck up and have a job than put indifferent and not have a job.

I've worked in kitchen environments before and hated them, which is why I didn't really care about the application.
I now enjoy working and have a better working enviroment than working in a kitchen.

People don't generally apply to Ivy League schools unless they [B]really[/B] busted their ass and did everything to increase their odds.
it's because the majority of the hispanics work there.
I guess they love cheap labor.
Shit, you don't wanna work at Mcdonalds.
It's easier to get into college than to get a job. I had virtually had little issue in getting into Westwood, yet every job I apply, I never get a reply back or they tell me I'm not what they're looking for. How fucking hard is it to a cashier? Is the damn assessment test the make you take. You have lie to get a job.

Neither did we.

It cant be that hard to get a job there, when I was 17 I found a fly in my food and mcdonalds offered me a job for it... I said fuck no, I want coupons for free food. So I ate free for quite some time. So yeah, go eat something there, find bug, bitch them out, get job!

I never really even got to that stage.
At Wendys: "Hi, do you have a position open?"
"No"

I think they're racist, everyone there was Indian.
I couldn't get fucking hired at the maccas literally 5 minutes for my house.
I wanted to do nightshifts, they desperately needed someone and I was the only applicant.
They turned me down because they thought I'd break down under pressure from angry customers.
I've been on the fucking internet since I was 12, I think I can handle some irate people with a straight face considering some of the shit I've seen.
