McDonalds was a shit job. One that I avoided,
praise be to Ronald. He scared me.
Misery and boss tyrants.
Now, in the digital age, McDonalds can
taunt their employees when they're
lying down, off work, with stress
fractures.
Telling them to smile and to
stop bitching. It's good for you
to stop bitching.

McDonalds’
Latest Advice to its Peasant Employees: “Quit Complaining” and “Sing a Song”
Posted
on November 20, 2013
Back
in July, I highlighted a ridiculous and insulting campaign that McDonalds ran
with Visa in which the company tried to help its impoverished employees plan a
budget. The only thing the campaign did was embarrass the company by proving
that you can’t survive working there.
Well
the company is right back at it in time for the holidays, with several pieces
of advice for its legions of serf employees through its ”McResource” website.
Three of the more insulting pieces of wisdom include:
“Sing
away stress: Singing along to your favorite songs can lower your blood
pressure.”
“Break
it up: Breaking food into pieces often results in eating less and still feeling
full.”
I
saved the best for last…
“Quit
complaining: Stress hormone levels rise by 15% after ten minutes of
complaining.”
