to let DS have a McDonald's each week?

[Streamings]

DS is a swimmer and swims with a squad that's 45 mins away. He starts training at 6:30 and comes out at 8 (pm btw) and it's very convenient for this day. He is healthy and slim and on all the other days has a good, balanced diet.

Is this seriously so bad?

Where is your source, Blueink?

Why are you capitalising "wheat".... it's not poison!

McDonalds UK is my "source", they capitalised wheat - not me

Link?

Nevermind, found it!

I'm Smugging it

Go away what to do about this. Yes 'you' obviously work for McDonalds but 'you' are not being transparent as to what capacity. So obvious. Must think we were born yesterday

Thought this might put you and it has

Out you

Struggling to see what really makes that can unhappy meal, unless it's the long words for every day ingredients.

Quick name change then or use another alias?!

I'm so confused Out me as what?

Is that addressed to me, blue ink?

You really are a funny little conspiracy theorist.

Night night

I work for McDonalds as a Crew Member; I've not even worked there half a year yet.

Why are you capitalising "wheat".... it's not poison!

No, but it's a common allergen, hence being in capital letters so it stands out easily for people checking it. You will find allergen ingredients in bold on food labels for the same reason. Surely you knows that if you work in the food industry?

What does crew member mean? Somebody who serves food to the public?

A crew member is someone who either works on front counter taking orders and serving food or who works in the kitchen cooking the food. Or someone who works on drive-thru if you have one.

The customer care team who work on lobby are also technically crew members though.

Tyical McDonalds store hierarchy:
Business Manager > 1st Assistant > 2nd Assistant > Shift Manager > Crew Trainer > Crew Member.

Thanks, I will say that everything works like clockwork at McDonalds, very efficient.

No worries Yeah, we have very strict procedures to do with absolutely everything.

And what a lot of people don't know is actually how much studying you have to do as an employee there! There are several workbooks you have to fill out and then exams to take to get your stars, and that's just as your average crew member.

People look down on us and think we're uneducated for working there but it's just not the case. I love my job and I enjoy going to work. I have wonderful colleagues and great managers, and it's always busy so you're never bored.

We haven't heard from the OP for a long time, has she hidden the thread?

I wouldn't blame her if she had.
