    No way. Don’t believe this. Worked for 5 years at a busy McDonald’s. There is NO WAY an entire bag of nuggets would just be ready somewhere. We kept two trays going, each one had about 20 nuggets or so in it max. If this was lunch rush they might have 40 nuggets up at once, but then they were so busy they just dumped them all here.

    If it was down time they may be a few available, like 10-20 getting old they need to get rid of anyway. Fine. That’s plausible.

    Even end of day you don’t have a bag of nuggets of waste. Of you did your supervisor would be pissed at you for mismanaging your rotation so poorly over the day.

    Zero way this is real. Dude clearly dumped a few on top of a full bag to get internet clout.

      ahh but you missed the part where the totally-real guy said he was giving free shit away like crazy, and thus he was making extra specifically to do this

        That’s true, the totally real guy did go to the back, make 5-6 bags of nuggets in the 4 fryers which take about 5 mins each, and no one else who worked there stopped him or called him out on it.

        Like seriously, unless it was a supervisor/manager (unlikely), they would have just been kicked out of the store.

      I could see quitting guy slowly putting extra nuggies in a bag for himself over the course of the day and decided to hand it over to dog dude because he liked the name ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      Yeah I found it a bit fishy too. Only because I was a fat ass who tried to order 60 nuggets, and the cashier said. “um… One moment.” And had to run around to see if they could make it.

      Yep. Same thought. I’ve only seen so many in rare occasions, like for a birthdays or stuff like that.

      And they aren’t cooked because the person on the cash says so, they are called by the people on the prep table based on screen orders.

      Nice story, but hella suspicious.
