Doing fast food work when your are famous as a publicity stunt is desperate. One day as a pampered trainee with someone shadowing you all day is no where near the same as living day in and day out working a minimum wage fast food job, serving up shit food for customers that treat you like shit.
If i pulled up to someone doing this id laugh and ask “wtf is this” and tell them how it is. You fundamentally can’t live the fast food experience when you have billions and fast food employees are trying to figure out how to get by when they make minimum wage and never get enough hours to get any benefits.
But that wasn’t even what happened. The store was closed lmao. He made a batch of fries and fucked off. I honestly can’t believe he even agreed to this outside of that he probably got free McDonald’s.
This mcdonald’s was not owned by mcdonald’s. It was a franchisee who owned the restaurant. One that has actively publicly campaigned against increasing the minimum wage. Now you know why it was allowed to happen there
“McDonald’s does not endorse candidates for elected office and that remains true in this race for the next President. We are not red or blue – we are golden.”
There’s a show, maybe on CNBC, where CEO’s put on a disguise and work as fresh hire trainees at their own companies. They talk candidly to their co-workers and either fire their ass, or give them thousands of dollars to accomplish their dreams, maybe pay for education. I have no idea how authentic it is, but I imagine if Trump did this show it would be him who was fired at the end. And then arrested for reckless endangerment.
Undercover Boss, and it’s the most Corpoproganda thing you’ve ever seen. Tried watching an episode, they fired a guy for being addicted to drugs and talking shit about the boss for “Not knowing what it means to struggle”
The boss proved it by firing him. Didn’t offer him drug consueling, didn’t pay for rehab, nothing, and the way they edited it made it look like she was doing him a favor.

I don’t think as a franchise owner you can just use the McDonald’s name, or can you?
That franchise owner is 100% going to catch heat for allowing this to happen without a corpo stamp of approval.
Good. Fuck 'em.
EDIT: Nevermind, corpos are both-siding losers.
