I used to be a "Customer Care Leader" at McDonald's, which is McDonald's poor attempt to have a waiter, and I got "trained" by the head of McDonald's in the UK and they basically tell you to emotionally manipulate the customers to buy and try to establish an attachment for them to come back, food quality is second to McDonald's, the experience is what matters.

@@SpeciesXCV its actually so funny when i hear Conor talk about what its like to work at McDonald's i can relate so much every story he said i've seen/been through.
@@kingwolfboss6144 I don't know with you but where I live the ice cream machine always works... btw the reason why they say its broken in some areas is that they are too lazy to clean it.
I used to be an assistant manager at a Jimmy Johns. I saw this moment in this man's face as he decided he no longer wanted to make sandwiches. He just sort of walked over to where the counter was and took off his Jimmy John's shirt. He folded it and stuck it on the cutting board and just walked out and that was the last we ever saw them. LOL
I know this is an old comment, but it trips me out because I’m the same age as him and I always thought he was so much older and more established than I am 😭
Bragging about how much you make is acceptable when it's in the face of the person who made your life a living hell for an extended period of time. It's unfortunate that Connor wasn't aware at the time that he could have sued McDonalds. Also, I love hearing Connor's stories! He should never apologize.
@@justastudent1423 It's basically a job made either for 16-19 year olds who work part-time to get extra cash, or adults whose lives went wrong somewhere and are desperate for a job. The worst part is that it's practically worthless on a CV/Resume unless you're planning on going to a slightly better fast food/hospitality job.
@@thomasdeguzman1149 Its not really worthless on a resume at all because customer service experience is taken into consideration seriously at least for career fields that deal with people. Such as corrections and etc. Also it shows you have good teamwork skills. It definitely would be pointless for jobs that require no people to deal and work with.
I'd love to have been a fly on the wall for when Connor went to go flex on his former manager lol. Also yeh, sorry but there's nothing worse than over eager staff. Like you just wanna get on with the job and here comes Jonny the self appointed assistant staff manager coming in, trying to give you all kinds of shit for no reason whatsoever. Damn man. If you're that kinda guy, why?
Dude, I’m 16 and I just went through the same situation as Connor like 2 weeks ago. I worked at this fast food place for about 6 months but finally quit after many unhappy shifts because of just how manipulative my general manager was. I’m glad I wasn’t the only one in that situation lol.
As someone whose first teen job was also at the Mac Shack, I relate to the “freezer therapy” portion so much. Whenever I had to pull the fries out I just stood in there with my head down and hands pinned against the boxes and wondered where it all went wrong. T_T
I mean if it's your first job that you do part-time while studying at school or working over the holidays for extra cash it's fine. However if it's your permanent full-time job that you chose because you had no other options (dropped out of school/university for example), then yeah something has gone wrong somewhere. My general advice to people who are going through that (trust me I can empathise) is to keep actively looking for better jobs while saving up. I nearly started working at KFC out of desperation since I dropped out of Uni and I needed a job. Thankfully through lucky connections, I managed to get a role at a recruitment company. While the hours are long, at the very least I don't need to put up with fast food corporate BS.
I’ll admit I got a job at a fast food place one time and an hour and half into my shift I said “I need to get something from my car real quick” I just drove off and never went back lmao. I wasn’t surprised because the lady who interviewed and hired me said “you’re not gonna walk out on your first shift are you? We’ve had a lot of people doing that lately”. If you’re in the fast food industry do not hesitate to leave if it’s unbearable
My friend used to work for McDonalds as a fry cook. After about a few months he noticed that his bank account didn't receive the correct amount of his pay. It turned into a long inquiry with the management and eventually got the bank involved. They found out that the money that he was supposed to get went to a different account that nobody owns (kinda fishy, I know). When it got sorted out the management didn't want to give the money immediately and he had to receive portions of it monthly; which, I don't understand because it was his money to begin with. He ended up quitting a few months after without even receiving his full salary.
I’m also a crew member at McDonald’s and I’m always fascinated to hear these horror stories since the places I worked at haven’t been too bad. Don’t get me wrong working 8 hours on your feet, going through lunch/school rushes is a pain and the customers can really push your buttons at times. But fortunately I got along with most of the managers since most are pretty chill (of course during the busy moments it can get a bit stressy) and they’re very forgiving unless you do something really stupid. I’m not saying all Maccies are like this, since it depends on the store you work in and it seems Connors has some bad eggs and shitty management. But if the Maccies you work in are filled with people you like, and chill managers then they can make the work a bit more bearable. But again it is fast paced and gruelling work so it’s each to there own. Interesting tidbit: with corona all members and managers must wear masks and while it is a bit annoying, it also means we don’t have to smile at customers anymore which is a huge relief.
Yeah it's always fun for me watching videos like this, since I really lucked out at the Mcdonald's that I work at. Literally, I don't think there's a single employee I don't like at the McDonald's I work at. And most of the managers (myself included) are pretty chill.
I work at a like,a 'golden boy' maccies, and they don't even pull shit like that. Our BM is the most perfectionist, clean freak I've ever met and he has never asked anyone to smile. Some of our shift managers are shitty but man, just as long as someone doesn't fuck around or tell a manager (or customer) to fuck off, they're good.
As a former employee I can definitely relate. Credit to me I worked there for 2 and a half years, but I remember once sitting in my car right before a shift, wondering what I'm doing with my life and screaming at the top of my lungs. About a week later I made up a 'better' job I had found and quit.
My best friend works at a McDonald’s in Australia and it’s horrible. They throw out so much food and don’t give the staff the option to eat it or take it home. The only get a discount for themselves alone when they are in uniform on break. The managers ignore her unavailable days. And once a piece of the roof fell on a staff member in the women’s bathroom and they blamed her for being in the wrong place and not seeing the danger. Granted this is one store but she’s told me stories from other stores as well.
@@Archedgar wtf is that statement. Teenagers arent the only ones working in fast food places. If you're 16 and you get $11 per hour, thats nice, but not for when you're an adult
As someone who work at McDonald's for 8 months. All I can say is nothing here surprised me other than he still liked the food. I to this day years later still can't stomach anything from there.
I had a similar thing, went Arse over Tit as they'd not allowed the floor to be cleaned so got paid to stay home and then reduced duties while my wrist healed up. I hated the job as there was no real care for your humanity from a senior level but there was some genuinely decent managers in my branch, I felt really bad when I handed in my notice to one as he was the friendliest most caring manager I've probably ever known and he seemed genuinely sad to see me go, even made my notice period Holiday. If you're out there still Matt, you're a Legend.
The Useless Channel the fucking food cabinets going off at random times during rush hours. And sundays being the day you feared going to work the most.
@@makeshift307 so true sundays sucked so hard i've worked for McDonald's for 1 year before i quit. the people working there were 50/50 some where so nice others i legit hated more than i've ever hated anyone. i remember how hard it was to get off a shift because we could only do i tuesdays and people would not always answer in time, i remember 1 guy got fired because he was not able to go to his grandfathers funeral and decided to just stay away.
that’s sooo funny, i worked at mcdonald’s for like two years, odd how similar some of my stories are 😂 one time my boss made me cry & i took orders at the front counter with tears streaming down my face, voice breaking 😭 the customers at the counter were regulars that loved me so they were yelling at my boss
Never worked at a fast-food joint, thank god for that, but I did work at a Family-centric _Rotisserie_ and also a more fancy bistro. Hated it both times, but I still kinda look back in fondness at what was ostensibly easy jobs. Physically demanding, somewhat, but mentally I could pretty much do them on autopilot. I feel bad for Connor, but I'm sure he realize how formative this experience was. I mean, imagine if he'd _loved it?_
I didn't work at mc donalds rather at a gas station/alcohol store. I quite because while the owner was gone I was doing constant double shifts because people were either late or couldn't come. The owner came back and I told her how I was a bit tired because of all of the double shifts I had to do and her words were "well then you should have finished your tasks quicker." I ignored what she said and continued working. The same day we got a truck in. I ended up working both the front and the drive thru. And at the same time she wanted me to help them unpack even though I was both registers were SUPER busy. I even tried to get others to help yet they wouldn't even stay for a second. This was the second time this happened. The first time was even worse because the owner was on vacation and the customers even started to notice how all of my coworkers was ignoring how busy it was. Like there was a lady standing in front of them, she was there for an hour. Imagine this: you have a full line of cars in the drive thru, a full line in the front and a lady whose been there for an hour at the back. What was I supposed to do? Clone myself into three. I even stared at the co workers and they stared at me back. Like.....what was going on in their heads? Two of the coworkers was managers!
Omg I work at McDonald’s currently and I love hearing stories from ppl who worked there so this was SO FUNNY 😂 but I’m glad my managers and the people I work with are nice. It is a stressful job and the pay is not good for everything we go thru😭
I worked at Burger King during the summer of 2018 and I got shit from the store manager for listening to the shift manager when I didn’t know what to do when the guy on the burger line flat out ignored a customers allergy and wrongly labeled her burger. Me, the little 18 year old cashier got torn to sheds for serving a wrongly labeled burger and offering poor compensation, I had nothing to with it besides the fact that I took the order! The fast food industry is a joke I swear
I hated working at Maccas as well. I hated the people I worked with. They treated the place like the Palace of Versailles in the sense of everyone was sleeping with everyone. And if you didn’t want in on that, you were persona non grata.
Anyone reading, if you are being burnt by hot oil you do not ASK for permission to provide yourself first aid. You just go and do it. If they want to complain about it, they are liable for your injury.
I worked at McDonalds when I was 16-17 too, but mine was essentially run by high schoolers. Almost all of us turned out to be weebs so I actually enjoyed working there lolol
Lmao I had a similar situation only I wasn't bribed. I had been outside nonstop doing carts as I was one of the only baggers available and finally I come inside when I think its a good time to take my break and my superviser was all like, "Where do you think ur going? You have to keep bringing more in." so then I ended up waiting till it was close to the end of my shift and she left. I thought that I was not allowed a break cause it was a 6 hour shift but found out that legally ur supposed to take a 15 min break every 2 hrs
I remember when I worked at Wendy's and we had this chicken deep fryer that would spray cooking out whenever the chicken was done and since I worked grill and all the fryers I did it. So one time I was taking the chicken out as soon as it beeped cause if I waited even 10 seconds for the oil to stop bubbling the manager would get mad at me, anyway I open up this fryer and you know it, it sprays all over me and got inside my eye so I like collapsed to the floor holding my face and my manager comes over and asks what's wrong and I tell her and she goes: "Stop complaining, you're the only grill guy here we need you right now so suck it up and keep working" and since I was 16 like Connor is was just like "sure" cause that's what my boss says I have to do
twice I got burned at wendy's both from fryer and with nuggets. It sucked like hell but thankfully they weren't too bad or big but man I was pissed off.
i've worked for McDonald's and we had those grills to grill the meat, the fat from the meat used to spray everywhere and i still to this day have some scars from being burned and not being able to go cool it off
6:10 hey that's what I did with art school, they accepted me later in the year and I left in the third week, but by the first day after two hours I knew, it was not worth it
Reminds of the time I worked at staples. The general manager was an abusive asswipe. I was sixteen and It was my first job ever. They had me at the cashier most of the time and EVERY SINGLE MISTAKE and he would yell and scream at me in front of customers, and then say I was unprofessional for making him yell at me. This guy was a complete nut job.
I worked at Wendys at that age. Some of the employees sucked, but some were good to work with. Although I do remember a coworker coming in on a Monday once, talking about how his weekend sucked. I asked why and he said it was cuz he got drunk and his friend stabbed him. Then he said "wanna see?" and lifted his shirt up, and the dude had an open, untreated stab wound to the gut. It wasnt bleeding cuz it was like 2 days old, but it was open and very obviously hadnt been seen by a doctor. He was an interesting dude
My local McDonald's was looking for new staff and I was looking for a part-time job so... I ofc decided to apply, did the interview (and agreed to be willing to do their crazy shifts) and when they found out I had compulsory University classes they even didn't call me back. "We'll let you know..." Still haven't heard from them. Luckily I found a place as a waiter in the nearby chain restaurant, started today!
They probably were mature enough at that age to act "normal" comparatively. Customers over 40 still could be terrible (ie Karens) but workers over 40 have a decent chance of wanting to be actually competent at their jobs and be reasonably decent with their co-workers.
The general manager at my McDonald's told me I'd be back. and the store manager stole overtime and pay raises from everyone and was fired a day after I quit and went to a.new job. Mcdonald's is fucking wild.
One time when I went to McDonald's, I ask for ice cream but the man said "sorry our ice cream machine is broken right now" it was the scariest moment of my life.
Can confirm on the freezer thing. My GF worked there for over 3 years. People would often walk in there just to scream and get it out of their system. Then they'd go back to work like nothing was wrong.
I work at a pizza place and I can heavily relate to Connor's burn story because I've gotten burns heaps of time just due to being next to hot pans and oil all night and trust me, they hurt like hell. I've gotten used to the small ones, but the bigger burn are some of the most uncomfortable pain I've ever felt
Thank goodness in the McDonald's in my country (Philippines) the crew is always smiling cus we pinoys would prefer to go to a restuarant where employees are smiling and having this positive aura.
The guy that went for a smoke break will come back in a later arc.

If you're out there still Matt, you're a Legend.
God i still hear beeping in my sleep from my long 10 months of McDonald’s......
The godamn timer for the fries always going off every 3 minutes.
@@TheSonic497 The Q-ing oven timer is the absolute worst sound in existence
The Useless Channel the fucking food cabinets going off at random times during rush hours. And sundays being the day you feared going to work the most.
@@makeshift307 so true sundays sucked so hard i've worked for McDonald's for 1 year before i quit. the people working there were 50/50 some where so nice others i legit hated more than i've ever hated anyone. i remember how hard it was to get off a shift because we could only do i tuesdays and people would not always answer in time, i remember 1 guy got fired because he was not able to go to his grandfathers funeral and decided to just stay away.
Meanwhile me working at a Mcdocalnds for 2 ½ years : "You Get Through the pain', *beep* Eventually."
2:02
Connor the protagonist coming out here with a classic, "Believe it"... Nice.
that’s sooo funny, i worked at mcdonald’s for like two years, odd how similar some of my stories are 😂 one time my boss made me cry & i took orders at the front counter with tears streaming down my face, voice breaking 😭 the customers at the counter were regulars that loved me so they were yelling at my boss
another time i trained this girl for one day, she never came back. she brought her uniform & name tag back through the drive through 🤣
as someone who started working at mcdonalds last month ... this is 10000% accurate
His work arc sounds way more interesting than anything in the Devil is a Part Timer.
Never worked at a fast-food joint, thank god for that, but I did work at a Family-centric _Rotisserie_ and also a more fancy bistro. Hated it both times, but I still kinda look back in fondness at what was ostensibly easy jobs. Physically demanding, somewhat, but mentally I could pretty much do them on autopilot.
I feel bad for Connor, but I'm sure he realize how formative this experience was. I mean, imagine if he'd _loved it?_
I didn't work at mc donalds rather at a gas station/alcohol store. I quite because while the owner was gone I was doing constant double shifts because people were either late or couldn't come. The owner came back and I told her how I was a bit tired because of all of the double shifts I had to do and her words were "well then you should have finished your tasks quicker." I ignored what she said and continued working. The same day we got a truck in. I ended up working both the front and the drive thru. And at the same time she wanted me to help them unpack even though I was both registers were SUPER busy. I even tried to get others to help yet they wouldn't even stay for a second. This was the second time this happened. The first time was even worse because the owner was on vacation and the customers even started to notice how all of my coworkers was ignoring how busy it was. Like there was a lady standing in front of them, she was there for an hour. Imagine this: you have a full line of cars in the drive thru, a full line in the front and a lady whose been there for an hour at the back. What was I supposed to do? Clone myself into three. I even stared at the co workers and they stared at me back. Like.....what was going on in their heads? Two of the coworkers was managers!
Omg I work at McDonald’s currently and I love hearing stories from ppl who worked there so this was SO FUNNY 😂 but I’m glad my managers and the people I work with are nice. It is a stressful job and the pay is not good for everything we go thru😭
I worked at Burger King during the summer of 2018 and I got shit from the store manager for listening to the shift manager when I didn’t know what to do when the guy on the burger line flat out ignored a customers allergy and wrongly labeled her burger. Me, the little 18 year old cashier got torn to sheds for serving a wrongly labeled burger and offering poor compensation, I had nothing to with it besides the fact that I took the order! The fast food industry is a joke I swear
2:31 THAT SHOULD BE A MEME!
I hated working at Maccas as well. I hated the people I worked with. They treated the place like the Palace of Versailles in the sense of everyone was sleeping with everyone. And if you didn’t want in on that, you were persona non grata.
Lmao
Dafuq... When Connor starts talking about his hand in mcdonald... A fckn Mcdonald ad came in. Lmao
And it's da burger
Is that a mf Hotel California reference at 7:45 "you can check out but you can never leave", joey really is a music nerd wwww
Anyone reading, if you are being burnt by hot oil you do not ASK for permission to provide yourself first aid. You just go and do it. If they want to complain about it, they are liable for your injury.
Yeah, I got fired from McDonald's in Australia for stopping a robbery haha
Hang on, what?
really? man everything i hear from australia is so bad these days
I worked at McDonalds when I was 16-17 too, but mine was essentially run by high schoolers. Almost all of us turned out to be weebs so I actually enjoyed working there lolol
Not McDoanlds but one time at my previous job I got bribed to literally not take my legally required break one time
Lmao I had a similar situation only I wasn't bribed. I had been outside nonstop doing carts as I was one of the only baggers available and finally I come inside when I think its a good time to take my break and my superviser was all like, "Where do you think ur going? You have to keep bringing more in." so then I ended up waiting till it was close to the end of my shift and she left. I thought that I was not allowed a break cause it was a 6 hour shift but found out that legally ur supposed to take a 15 min break every 2 hrs
I worked at McDonald's for 3 days. Don't regret leaving one bit. 😂
That makes this 1000x funnier to me, cause I can relate on a spiritual level.
When you go to McDonald's and you see an employee smiling
You: Why you always lying?
I remember when I worked at Wendy's and we had this chicken deep fryer that would spray cooking out whenever the chicken was done and since I worked grill and all the fryers I did it. So one time I was taking the chicken out as soon as it beeped cause if I waited even 10 seconds for the oil to stop bubbling the manager would get mad at me, anyway I open up this fryer and you know it, it sprays all over me and got inside my eye so I like collapsed to the floor holding my face and my manager comes over and asks what's wrong and I tell her and she goes: "Stop complaining, you're the only grill guy here we need you right now so suck it up and keep working" and since I was 16 like Connor is was just like "sure" cause that's what my boss says I have to do
twice I got burned at wendy's both from fryer and with nuggets. It sucked like hell but thankfully they weren't too bad or big but man I was pissed off.
i've worked for McDonald's and we had those grills to grill the meat, the fat from the meat used to spray everywhere and i still to this day have some scars from being burned and not being able to go cool it off
So Connor what are you doing now
Connor : I am a have a partnership with UA-cam
6:10 hey that's what I did with art school, they accepted me later in the year and I left in the third week, but by the first day after two hours I knew, it was not worth it
The ending sentence lmao „some of them were nice, but everyone was an asshole“ xD
This video is canon to "Devil is a Part Timer"
Great Hotel California reference, Joey.
if you applying for work just put your friend and have them pretend as references could work as well
legend has it the worker is still on his smoke break
When you 16 you do what you told
Me at 25: i still do what my manger tells me no questions asked 🌝
Reminds of the time I worked at staples. The general manager was an abusive asswipe. I was sixteen and It was my first job ever. They had me at the cashier most of the time and EVERY SINGLE MISTAKE and he would yell and scream at me in front of customers, and then say I was unprofessional for making him yell at me. This guy was a complete nut job.
In the great words of kyle exum "im getting paid minimum wage so im giving you minimum effort"
I worked at Wendys at that age. Some of the employees sucked, but some were good to work with. Although I do remember a coworker coming in on a Monday once, talking about how his weekend sucked. I asked why and he said it was cuz he got drunk and his friend stabbed him. Then he said "wanna see?" and lifted his shirt up, and the dude had an open, untreated stab wound to the gut. It wasnt bleeding cuz it was like 2 days old, but it was open and very obviously hadnt been seen by a doctor. He was an interesting dude
Is Garnt the monk protagonist with a hot GF and Connor the antagonist with a more interesting backstory?
...does that make Joey the pervy best friend?
*insert Connor being a protagonist joke here*
I used to work on McDonald's and can confirm that Connor is right, working at McDonald's fucking sucks, everything is awful.
Honestly, McDonald's just seems like a drama magnet, I'm glad I never worked at one.
A Tree doesn't approve of Connor not sueing McDonald.
Yo Connor's stories are like the best fen stories sometimes. Great job on these guys.
Mom Connor is telling his protagonist stories again!
10:16 should've said "I got a *BETTER* job."
My local McDonald's was looking for new staff and I was looking for a part-time job so... I ofc decided to apply, did the interview (and agreed to be willing to do their crazy shifts) and when they found out I had compulsory University classes they even didn't call me back. "We'll let you know..." Still haven't heard from them. Luckily I found a place as a waiter in the nearby chain restaurant, started today!
At this point they should just make a playlist and just call it Connor’s Bizarre Adventure
I'm 1 year and a half into McDonalds and I'm glad I'm not the only person who suffered.
2:41 You would expect coworkers over 40 to be worse but im surprised
They probably were mature enough at that age to act "normal" comparatively. Customers over 40 still could be terrible (ie Karens) but workers over 40 have a decent chance of wanting to be actually competent at their jobs and be reasonably decent with their co-workers.
As a wise man once said:
"Some of them were nice but yeah everyone was an asshole"
The general manager at my McDonald's told me I'd be back. and the store manager stole overtime and pay raises from everyone and was fired a day after I quit and went to a.new job. Mcdonald's is fucking wild.
fast food always feels like a nightmare tbh
One time when I went to McDonald's, I ask for ice cream but the man said "sorry our ice cream machine is broken right now" it was the scariest moment of my life.
I have a McDonald’s horror story: they never paid me after a week of working there. They said it was to pay for my uniform which I returned…
Legend says he's still sitting on a milk-crate smoking durries
Imagining Connor smiling while making a burger is just funny
It's the McDonald's arc.
12 episodes.
1 OVA for the revisit
Connor's a good story teller.
6:56 Garnt wanted to tell him so bad that he DID get fat
Connor is a Part-Time worker!
Another episode of Story Time with Connor.
Can confirm on the freezer thing. My GF worked there for over 3 years. People would often walk in there just to scream and get it out of their system. Then they'd go back to work like nothing was wrong.
I work at a pizza place and I can heavily relate to Connor's burn story because I've gotten burns heaps of time just due to being next to hot pans and oil all night and trust me, they hurt like hell. I've gotten used to the small ones, but the bigger burn are some of the most uncomfortable pain I've ever felt
Adventures of Conor: chapter 32 so far. Revenge over the manager.
Thank goodness in the McDonald's in my country (Philippines) the crew is always smiling cus we pinoys would prefer to go to a restuarant where employees are smiling and having this positive aura.
