Ask a McDonald's employee anything

Did you know that we throw out all fries that have been finished cooking for longer than [EDIT: I'm drunk] 7 minutes?
Or that there are 4 GODDAMNED POUNDS of sugar in that dispenser of sweet tea you are decanting into your plastic/cardboard cup?
I've had the humbling, healthy privilege of working at a McDonalds in Kansas City for the last couple of months and am being primed for a managerial position should I choose to stick around.
With McDonald's being the most ubiquitous fast food dispensary in the nation and world, I thought I'd see if I can contribute to you guys' curious brains and answer any questions you might have had and scratch any inquisitive itches you all might harbor in your brains.
Ask away! Zee007 works here too, at a different one, and is already a manager so he may be able to answer things I can't.
I'm all yours, Shroomery!

Come here you, I've been way too wrapped up in myself lately and want to benefit from all that you guys have to offer and in doing so, want to offer you as much of myself and my experiences as I can 
Did you guys know that the Big Mac comes in burrito form if you want it? It's called the Mac Wrap.
There are also 3 vegetarian wraps, called the McVeggie. 2 months at McDonalds and I've never seen ANYONE order one.

Pizza hut must be a sweet gig!
We pull things out as a continual process throughout the day. IDK if this is just a McDonalds thing, but we have what's called a "Secondary Shelf Life", which is how long things are good for once taken from the walk-in freezers and refrigerators.
We have a different time for everything almost, and a machine that spits out stickers with expiration times that we stick on everything once made (i.e. our pies or iced tea dispensers).
For meat patties, McNuggets, chicken patties, etc., our machines tell us when they have been sitting too long. Even our fry machine has a timer on it to let us know when that 7 minutes is up.
Good question and thanks for giving me the opportunity to impart my nearly-minimum-wage wisdom!

That would be our pleasure. Would you like to add a drink and fries to that for a few cents more? (is what I say to unsuspecting guests)Quote:

Ganj's suggestion will likely work, if you just come through and say you got your order messed up earlier but don't have it, but this is far from guaranteed. They'll possibly acquiesce just to shut you up.
The better, smarter, McDonald's Psychedelic Forum Employee(TM) method would be this:
Go through the drive through, order something (or don't) and tell either the speaker stand or the payment (1st) window that you forgot your money, but stay in line.
When the present hands you the (person behind you's) order, take it and drive away.
Voila... free food!

Every shift, we get $3 in free food for below 6 hours or $5 in free food for a shift over 6 hours, at least at my location. This is reduced to $2.50 and $3.50 for breakfast time, since the food's a LITTLE bit cheaper.
For me, I started eating McDoubles during breaks and after shifts, after 5 years vegetarian. So for how often it begets upset stomach or diarrhea, I will say "it gets both, and it gets them every time".
McDonald's is not your local Whole Foods' Organic Deli.

Do you ever set up cameras in the restroom and put laxatives in the food to film people rushing to the toilet?

Fries are gone after 7 minutes ? sure doesn't taste like it buddy lol.
I don't know why people bitch about mcdonalds, its fast food for hell sake.I haven't eaten there in about 6 years (aside from the occasional french fry) because I don't eat animal shit anyone but I remember it being just about as good as the rest of the junk food places. Those 1$ double cheesuburgers are worth a dollar, that's for sure. I never got stomach issues of the shits from it either and I never really saw this happen to anyone either. I have heard people joke about it but never really heard real accounts of it LOL.
If you get one of those nice breaded chicken sandwiches it's going to be a good meal.
