I worked at McDonald's. [View all]

I flipped burgers and pancakes when I was in high school.

I have never put it on a resume.
I have never put it on a job application.

I mention it every once in a while in passing conversation. I think it's kinda funny.
I clearly remember feeling like my entire body was covered with grease when I got off my shift. And the smell took days to go away. Disgusting.

But I thought I should contribute some anecdotal evidence, that just because it's not on her resume doesn't mean she never worked there. And questioning her claim of working there just because it's not on her resume, is pretty stupid.... at its best is bad journalism but in reality it shows how deep they have to dig to find anything they can even question and attempt to turn into an issue.

Sucks to see this non-story getting traction, but ultimately it's encouraging because it shows how desperate they are.

I'm a vegetarian now and the only thing I use McDonalds for is their bathroom.
