@@element19ch It's a pretty common misconception that McDonald's is a minimum-wage job It does pay on the lower end but it's not minimum wage, and I can tell because the people at my local McDonald's really enjoy what they are doing and they've been there for a while. Also, if you truly enjoy your job you don't care how much it pays. And it seems like this person really enjoys what they do for a living :)
I appreciate how this team is respectful of each other!Not to mention this kitchen looks clean.A clean and tidy kitchen is a must for success in the food industry.Thanks for the vids.Cheers!!
@@robertfinch6602 maybe customer request no buns. In Malaysia, our McDonald app allow us to choose No Burger, No Lettuce, No McChicken for the McChicken. Someone did select all "No" ended up receiving the box
I just got accepted at my local McDonald’s and you’re videos are helping me learn whatever I need to know. I’m watching every call out, every fold of the wrapper and how quickly u move without causing trouble. Thx I’ll continue to watch
people always diss the profession of working at mcdonalds but it's honestly such a high-demanding job and i have so much respect for all the people that pull it off
That honestly goes for any fast food restaurant employee. I worked at Panda Express for a bit and it taught me to always show fast food employees respect. It’s understandable to be angry when they just don’t care. But you never know… everyone has their bad days. The message for everyone is, try and make their day a little better by being nice. It goes a long way, trust me.
People only diss it because it's a very fast paced, high demanding job, that pays the lowest possible pay that's legal. To work at McDonalds, you have to be either extremely desperate for work, or be literally unable to work any kind of job that requires skill
I'm impressed!! You do your job so well and you're great with your coworkers and such a good leader. I never realized how chaotic it is behind the scenes at fast food places. I only worked Taco Bell and Pizza Hut, but that was in the 90's. And even being in a college town, things back then weren't as hectic and people weren't as demanding or mean as they are now. I always try to be kind, but now I have much more appreciation for what ya'll do especially in current times.
It’s like a VR game. Pretty cool to see how well trained fast food workers have to be. Constantly moving and pumping orders out. MCD should have a VR game.
You dont have to be well trained. Just "worked in" properly. Did a part timer at McD for half a year with no prior experience. After 4 days I was expected to solo work like this guy. It worked out, got nearly every burger "recipe" in my brain in those 4 days, and even got complimented a few times for being such a quick learner, others didnt believed me that I had no experience. But I couldnt stand the smell of frying oil anymore after 6 months... You come home and you still smell like the fries... wasnt pleasant. But it showed me to appreciate the people there and maybe not get mad if they f*ck up your order slightly cause of the stress. Cause most of the time it was way more stressful.
@@inholee1732 well we were understaffed as hell that day. Also got only a lousy hourly pay of 10.33$ so yeah… But it wasnt the only day like this, After I showed them, that Im capable of working solo I often worked those shifts
There isn't really much training to it I work at Maccas in NZ and they just showed me how to cook the meat and make some of common burgers and muffins and there's a poster on the wall showing most of the other ones!! After a couple of hours I was working solo in the kitchen!!! Of course I made Mistakes, and one of the worst mistakes was forgetting the patty in the burger LOL
I worked at McDonalds in Australia for 4 years, from the ages of 16-20. Watching this makes me tear up, I went from being a high school drop out with no confidence, prospects or much hope in life. To being a hard working employee who saved up enough money to buy a decent car and go travelling around Europe eventually. I learned so much about myself while I was there and found out just how capable and hard working I was. I honestly feel I could jump in today and smash it out just like I used too. McDonalds also taught me how to be a good trainer/leader. Their training programm is insanley good and whenever I've applied for jobs since, each employer was always impressed to see I started at Maccas (Australian nickname for McDonalds). Thanks for posting these videos, it's nice to see everyone commenting and appreciating how hard the job looks. The pressure was huge sometimes, not to mention most of these jobs are manned by kids just like me when I started out.
Growing up close to my local maccas I never ever got angry at them if it was a stuff up, it happens. The maccas was always exceptionally run anyway and I always found the management was better there. It's a rough gig when you do solid weeks too. I remember one of my exs used to look half zombified lol
Pretty dope and admirable to see all the work that goes into this. Constant movement. No down time. This is a thankless job for sure. Doesn’t get enough respect 💪🏼
I like watching these videos before bed it's a very calming experience. There isn't a lot of loud yelling all you hear is the sounds of the cooking equipment being used, the fans in the background, the staff using specific lingo to make sure the food is correctly done and, then to top it off we get this hypnotic visual of how the food is made.
For all the people thinking that they want to work here because of this video: Keep in mind that this is only about 30 minutes of a lunch rush. As a former line member, that's only the beginning. You're quite literally on your feet for about 8 hours a day. It's worse if you're closing up for the night. My body was in pain constantly because I was always, ALWAYS on my feet. Usually a normal lunch rush would run from about one and a half to two hours depending on the day. You're screwed on holidays because people are lonely and having nothing else, so they hang out at McDonald's. We actually had to shut down our McDonald's on Christmas Day purely because of the wait time. Each car had about an hour to wait in the drive thru. There were only three of us in the store. The manager, the cook (me), and drive thru running both windows. In this video, the line is fully staffed so they have nothing else to focus on besides making the food. In a real-world scenario, as a line cook, you're going to be juggling a bunch of things at the same time. If you don't, you best believe that restocking everything, cleaning, and prepping for the next shift is going to set you back about an hour.. and that's if you're efficient. The manager always has the option of jumping on during the lunch rush, and then jumping off to go take a seat in the office for whatever reason. It's two different worlds being a manager vs. Being an employee. Don't get me started on the customers... I'm an aerospace software engineer, and I still think McDonald's is one of the hardest jobs in the world. Don't let this video fool you.
This is so much better than any of the training videos they ever showed us when i worked there a long time ago. So many little tricks to make you more efficient and it less stressful overall
Lol I'm not a judgmental person at all everyone enjoys what they like but that Is confusing I mean xD I'm assuming the only reason someone would want a burger without bread is because they're diabetic and can't eat bread.... but if you're SO unhealthy to the point where you can't eat bread there's no way in hell they should be eating meat and cheese xD it's kooky but what do I know

I’ve worked in food service for nearly 20 years, 6 of them in a VERY busy drive-thru environment, and I live near the best McDonald’s I’ve ever been to, and this vid makes me want to call down there & tell them how much I appreciate them & their hard work. I imagine it’s a LOT like this in there. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Stephen, I would like to see something of your dayly routine as a store manager. Opening / closing a store, dayly deliveries, doing the numbers ... the stuff that also happens in the background of your day-to-day routine. I find that highly interessting. Greatings from northern Germany :))
I would like to see the delivery truck get unloaded and items stowed into freezer and storage. I remember getting a tour of the local McDonald's for Cub Scouts in the 1980's. That particular store had the freezer and storage in the basement. There was a roller conveyor that the deliveries rolled down from the ground level access panel. Lots of styrofoam packaging then too.
@@EbenCalhoun i worked at a mom/pop fast/casual type of place and delivered would come on tuesdays. it was my job to restock everything. they would just dump boxes and crates of in the cooler/freezer/dry storage and it was my job to rotate and put away stock. once i started fighting with my lazy coworkers they would yell at me for taking too long to restock. once they started talking unnecessary crap about me n my family (in a language they thought i didn’t know) i was out🙌 the thing that kissed me off the most was i was the hardest worker but because i was white like the owners they thought i got special treatment
Can someone tell me why I, a 32 year old business owner, husband and father with his own problems and very little spare time, can't stop watching this? I am so mesmerized by every single video on this channel... It makes me want to work at McDonald's. 10/10 top tier content...
Im 32. I think it's the satisfaction of watching tasks being completed. My job is way more abstract and so the tasks, when completed, don't feel as satisfactory as sliding a completed sandwich down the lane.
Ok - my head was spinning after a few minutes in - This guy is a McDs Champion. Much appreciation to the fast food workers who actually work like this - Thank you!
YOU EVEN PROPERLY PLACE THE CHEESE IN A STAR PATTERN, I'm so glad I'm not the only one who did this haha. Brings back some memories of my highschool days man! Keep up the good work, glad y'all have such a good and cool team at that location.
As someone who use to work at Taco Bell for over a year its crazy how similar things are. Fryers beeping, communication amongst co workers, moving around fast, being verbal when you get a custom order, etc.
This video shows perfectly how you're working alone inside a team. When you need something, you tell your co-workers and they do the production to keep the orders flowing. I love watching such videos because it's satisfying to see the orders flying out one after another.
I love watching these videos. I used to work in McDonalds and I enjoyed working in the kitchen. I hated serving customers and drive thru but making the food was good and you could have a laugh with the rest of staff.
its always so nice when u can talk video games with your colleges:D i remember one of my first restaurant jobs the sous chef was a wow player and we just talked world of warcraft the whole day
So satisfying watching a McDonald’s that’s run so well. Ever since discovering your channel, I’ve been so much more aware of the better stores in my city.
It may not have been the happiest time in my life but seeing such an exact recreation of how my day-to-days used to look, and done so well, really takes me back. I still keep in touch with my old crew, all the way back from 2007.
as a 19 year old with little job experience this makes me appreciate the little things you can miss even from a repetitive or even boring job like this.
Tossing nuggets is WILD, i love how you are effiecient but have finesse and style! Lets go dude, i work at amazon and have too done the same processes there that many times we make it look easy, but its really not, kudos to you my guy!
The teamwork and efficiency is great. People don't know that it is tough to work at mcdonalds. This video was a full sprint of making mcdonalds and everyone is calm, talking to each other and getting the work done. Thanks to you, I can enjoy mcdonalds so much more!
This guy is efficient! I like his speed and the way he communicates. I like how respectful he is with his team members. Great job sir! I enjoyed this video.
I worked at McDonalds for a few years while in high school. At the time I hated it but looking back it was a pretty good gig for a high school kid. The official rule is that we were only allowed one value meal per shift for free, but everyone eats whatever they want and the system they have in place is incredibly efficient. Im pretty sure I could step onto the sandwich assembly line now over 15 years later and still hold my own.
I used to work in a Russian McDonald's. That grill sound is the same as we had (which kinda surprised me for some reason lol). Brings some nostalgic feelings instantly
Love the longer videos. I appreciate what you do and the respect you show others. Not sure of your location, but I bet they are a to selling establishment
I worked at McDonald's in the mid 90's, right when this heater tray system was getting implemented. Before we just made COPIOUS amounts of sandwiches and they would just grab from a stack. I really liked this made-for-you system they implemented. I honestly enjoyed that job, despite it's headaches. It was very satisfying. I'd do it again, but there's no chance it could ever pay right
This system was implemented to control food waste at the expense of speed. The bin system allowed for speed at the expense of food waste, but that really depended on who was running the grill. I worked at McDs in the early 90s and they were starting to transition to the steam heating cabinets. In my opinion it was a bad move. The quality of the food has suffered because of this. The bin system worked just fine for lunch and dinner rushes, and cook to order worked just fine in between during slower times. Even now, going through the drive through, the quality of the food is noticeable, and you are waiting longer for it.
I Could Watch This All Day. Lol This Dude Works Great & Fast. It's Amazing How Well Everything Just Flows Behind The Scenes. - Watching From North Carolina
Much respect for the hardworking people at this restaurant. The beeping would drive me crazy, there’s no way constant high pitched sounds can be good for the human mind. Constantly feeling pressure is a given, but to add alerts is brutal
used to work production at mcdonalds in my early 20's i dont miss the work just the good friends i made while working there, chatting when its not a rush.
Can't help but feel that the buns are relatively harder to reach than where I worked in Japan. There, the buns would slide down towards me so it was closer to grab once I had the wrap/box ready. Other than that, it's pretty impressive that the station is similar everywhere. You could work in any Mc and not be confused.
Back when I first started on the assembly position (is that what this is called still?) we were doing trays of cheeseburgers, hamburgers (12-15 at a time), Quarter Pounders (6 at at time) and so on and putting them in the warming bins after Q-ing them. I was working for McD's when they transitioned to these meat and chicken/fish warming bins back in the late 90s. This has been fun to watch and brings back memories both good and bad from my time at McD's. You have a great working relationship with your employees that is great to see.
Making dried out tasteless burgers with meat that was cooked at least 30 minutes ago. I can not remember the last I've had a decent Quarter Pounder. No matter what time I go to my local McDonald's I never get a fresh burger.
@@gordonwelcher9598 Sounds like you have a bad local McD's. Sadly not every owner/operator takes pride in how their store runs and just looks for the bottom line.
I used to work in food service, and sometimes I miss it. The job I work now pays almost twice as much as I made in food service, but sometimes it’s boring/unfulfilling. A job like this, you know you are bringing some immediate satisfaction to someone out there, and it’s the same if not harder in difficulty than most high paying jobs. It doesn’t seem unreasonable to me that, living in such an advanced world, someone should be able to work wherever they please based on the things that bring them satisfaction, and be paid a comfortable living wage for it. All of us humans helped build this world we live in, so we should all collectively benefit from it. Thank you for these videos and keep up the good work!
Something I find really surprising is how few big Macs they seem to have to make and just how many fillet o fishes they get through. I thought it'd be the other way around
Never had a filet O fish in my life. I binged on your videos for awhile and noticed that the fish sandwich gets ordered enough that I tried my first one over the weekend. It was better than I expected but won't go out my my way for one. I think it needs to be a little bigger and add some lettuce and pickles.
The fish gets sold minimally. You probably only really want to get one when you come late to a rush period. If not, it's likely that it's been sitting till near the end of the "safe consumption time". Kindof the same with fries. Show up slightly after a rush starts to avoid soggy fries.
Go during lent. Filet O Fish is always fresh. Probably will even have to pull up and wait. I used to keep pen tallies of sandwiches made and during lent. A 6 hour closing shift was over 100 Filet of Fish or around 20-25 made an hour.
Damn, I just came across your channel. I am an Air Traffic Controller and I have to say. We have to be quick, pay attention to detail, and deal with stress. What you do is just as stressful, if not more, then what I do! I wish all McDonald's employees were as good as you are brother!
Omg 89-91 here and just told my husband I think I want to go back. My era, no warmers. For all the food. Only nugs and chicken got a drawer. Everything else was made but tray. They would say 12 reg or whatever. I just dont know if I could handle all the beeping.
@@thecattermat exactly. I didnt seem to have an issue back in the day. But I dont listen to the videos. I just put them on and watch. Not sure why, just like the fast pace.
Last year I went to mcdonalds for the first time in a few years. The expectation was huge but when I came in it was busy, long waiting and almost couldn't find a seat. When I finally got my cold and mushy fries and sloppy burger there was a fight going on between some customers. They were hitting each other and swearing while the mcd crew didn't give a shit. Never again lol
Thank you for being so professional in this line of work for our world. I worked at chili's and the kids use to drop food on the floor and still serve them. As a previous chef, I honor you.
I love how respectful everyone is there. I worked at McDonald's and all they did was curse at us all the time. New subscriber . Love your videos.
I curse at ppl jokingly. Some ppl it makes laugh.
Isn't he the owner? That might be a reason.
Probably being lazy
Weird way of saying black people but ok
@@nathandanner4030 No, this guy is actually the janitor but somebody called off so he had to fill in for crew
something about watching someone being efficient and motivated at their choice of employment is very relaxing. I could watch this all day.

Hi Stephen, I would like to see something of your dayly routine as a store manager. Opening / closing a store, dayly deliveries, doing the numbers ... the stuff that also happens in the background of your day-to-day routine. I find that highly interessting. Greatings from northern Germany :))
I would like to see the delivery truck get unloaded and items stowed into freezer and storage. I remember getting a tour of the local McDonald's for Cub Scouts in the 1980's. That particular store had the freezer and storage in the basement. There was a roller conveyor that the deliveries rolled down from the ground level access panel. Lots of styrofoam packaging then too.
@@EbenCalhoun i worked at a mom/pop fast/casual type of place and delivered would come on tuesdays. it was my job to restock everything. they would just dump boxes and crates of in the cooler/freezer/dry storage and it was my job to rotate and put away stock. once i started fighting with my lazy coworkers they would yell at me for taking too long to restock. once they started talking unnecessary crap about me n my family (in a language they thought i didn’t know) i was out🙌 the thing that kissed me off the most was i was the hardest worker but because i was white like the owners they thought i got special treatment
Truck use to shut down our Drive Thru for like 3 hours.
Ich find das so schön das man hier auch so viele deutsche findet :D
Grüße in den Norden

Can someone tell me why I, a 32 year old business owner, husband and father with his own problems and very little spare time, can't stop watching this? I am so mesmerized by every single video on this channel... It makes me want to work at McDonald's. 10/10 top tier content...
I know what you mean man. It's very cathartic somehow
Goodluck with life
Same here, minus the business owner part though
Im 32. I think it's the satisfaction of watching tasks being completed. My job is way more abstract and so the tasks, when completed, don't feel as satisfactory as sliding a completed sandwich down the lane.
I’ve never wanted to work fast food more in my life than after watching these videos! It crazy 😂
Ok - my head was spinning after a few minutes in - This guy is a McDs Champion. Much appreciation to the fast food workers who actually work like this - Thank you!
YOU EVEN PROPERLY PLACE THE CHEESE IN A STAR PATTERN, I'm so glad I'm not the only one who did this haha. Brings back some memories of my highschool days man! Keep up the good work, glad y'all have such a good and cool team at that location.
Why only half a cheese for fish filet tho?
Those single nug-tosses into the box were smooth as hell.
Intill 1 drop in the floor they just pick up back up in put them in the box
@@Baja2424 yea, i mean a chicken nugget isnt really chicken anymore, so much random trash in there, so who cares.
@@n1ghtwhirl right
Y'all be impressed by the dumbest shit, smh
@@tamera3700 lol your right
As someone who use to work at Taco Bell for over a year its crazy how similar things are. Fryers beeping, communication amongst co workers, moving around fast, being verbal when you get a custom order, etc.
Bro said "NUGGS OUT" like he is in vietnam hahaha
this is awesome dude -props to you - i salute every happy meal i consume in your memory
This video shows perfectly how you're working alone inside a team. When you need something, you tell your co-workers and they do the production to keep the orders flowing. I love watching such videos because it's satisfying to see the orders flying out one after another.
This guy is the epitome of beast mode. Serious respect for the hard workers behind the scenes!!
Why do I find this so damn fascinating?! Greatest respect to what you do. Wow.
These are my favorite, they keep me calm. Thank you💖
I love watching these videos. I used to work in McDonalds and I enjoyed working in the kitchen. I hated serving customers and drive thru but making the food was good and you could have a laugh with the rest of staff.
I’m impressed. Calm, quick, efficient, communicative, stylish and stamina. He has the potential to be bartender that makes bank.
It is So refreshing to see so many positive and respectful comments on this video. Great stuff.
its always so nice when u can talk video games with your colleges:D i remember one of my first restaurant jobs the sous chef was a wow player and we just talked world of warcraft the whole day
So satisfying watching a McDonald’s that’s run so well. Ever since discovering your channel, I’ve been so much more aware of the better stores in my city.
I love McDonald’s here and there and employees like this guy deserve way better then what they earn, hats off to you bro
It may not have been the happiest time in my life but seeing such an exact recreation of how my day-to-days used to look, and done so well, really takes me back. I still keep in touch with my old crew, all the way back from 2007.
as a 19 year old with little job experience this makes me appreciate the little things you can miss even from a repetitive or even boring job like this.
Tossing nuggets is WILD, i love how you are effiecient but have finesse and style! Lets go dude, i work at amazon and have too done the same processes there that many times we make it look easy, but its really not, kudos to you my guy!
The teamwork and efficiency is great. People don't know that it is tough to work at mcdonalds. This video was a full sprint of making mcdonalds and everyone is calm, talking to each other and getting the work done. Thanks to you, I can enjoy mcdonalds so much more!
Почему , по мне так очевидно , что работа во фаст фурах тяжёлая
Steve you are truly the best at what you do. Great Job
Why is this so addicting? It’s legit just a go-pro at a mundane job…yet I can’t stop watching.
This man is a one man, well oiled, working machine…. Just subscribed to his channel last week. 👍🏻👍🏻
And McDonald's love profiting off him whilst underpaying
This guy is efficient! I like his speed and the way he communicates. I like how respectful he is with his team members. Great job sir! I enjoyed this video.
I worked at McDonalds for a few years while in high school. At the time I hated it but looking back it was a pretty good gig for a high school kid. The official rule is that we were only allowed one value meal per shift for free, but everyone eats whatever they want and the system they have in place is incredibly efficient. Im pretty sure I could step onto the sandwich assembly line now over 15 years later and still hold my own.
I always assumed it was so much more chaotic inside the kitchen. This is awesome to watch.
I used to work in a Russian McDonald's. That grill sound is the same as we had (which kinda surprised me for some reason lol). Brings some nostalgic feelings instantly
Love the longer videos. I appreciate what you do and the respect you show others. Not sure of your location, but I bet they are a to selling establishment
I like how he does everything quickly and without mistakes
i respect all of these people. its a very hard job.
Not sure why but these videos are SO satisfying. Almost could be ASMR
I worked at McDonald's in the mid 90's, right when this heater tray system was getting implemented. Before we just made COPIOUS amounts of sandwiches and they would just grab from a stack. I really liked this made-for-you system they implemented. I honestly enjoyed that job, despite it's headaches. It was very satisfying. I'd do it again, but there's no chance it could ever pay right
If you dont mind me asking, were they grilling/heating each sandwich as they were ordered?
This system was implemented to control food waste at the expense of speed. The bin system allowed for speed at the expense of food waste, but that really depended on who was running the grill. I worked at McDs in the early 90s and they were starting to transition to the steam heating cabinets. In my opinion it was a bad move. The quality of the food has suffered because of this. The bin system worked just fine for lunch and dinner rushes, and cook to order worked just fine in between during slower times. Even now, going through the drive through, the quality of the food is noticeable, and you are waiting longer for it.
I love it. Thx for your great work to make us „fast“ food. Without them we couldnt enjoy a burger.
My food never looks as good put together as this guy makes it. Great job! The pride shows.
i work at mcdonalds in Australia, and it's so interesting to see how different yet the same it is. awesome work dude
As someone who works in the Netherlands i had the exact same feeling watching this
I feel like working for Steven would be a fun a job. Never worked fast food, but he looks to enjoy it!
I Could Watch This All Day. Lol
This Dude Works Great & Fast.
It's Amazing How Well Everything Just Flows Behind The Scenes. - Watching From North Carolina
Much respect for the hardworking people at this restaurant. The beeping would drive me crazy, there’s no way constant high pitched sounds can be good for the human mind. Constantly feeling pressure is a given, but to add alerts is brutal
2:11 so smooth 🔥🔥🔥
Love seeing this smooth operation and teamwork. As someone who’s invested heavily in McDonald’s it makes me happy as a customer and shareholder. 👍👍
Just a trader or actual long-time investment?
I don’t know how yall do it, It runs so smooth and organized could watch all day 😂
used to work production at mcdonalds in my early 20's i dont miss the work just the good friends i made while working there, chatting when its not a rush.
Can't help but feel that the buns are relatively harder to reach than where I worked in Japan. There, the buns would slide down towards me so it was closer to grab once I had the wrap/box ready.
Other than that, it's pretty impressive that the station is similar everywhere. You could work in any Mc and not be confused.
i have the same thing at my mcdonald’s
Probably because Japanese people are generally shorter XD
Back when I first started on the assembly position (is that what this is called still?) we were doing trays of cheeseburgers, hamburgers (12-15 at a time), Quarter Pounders (6 at at time) and so on and putting them in the warming bins after Q-ing them. I was working for McD's when they transitioned to these meat and chicken/fish warming bins back in the late 90s. This has been fun to watch and brings back memories both good and bad from my time at McD's. You have a great working relationship with your employees that is great to see.
12 regs cheese 9?
cheese all!
@@swchocolate1 The worst was when they had the $0.29 hamburger and $0.39 cheeseburger deals with no limit on purchases.
Making dried out tasteless burgers with meat that was cooked at least 30 minutes ago.
I can not remember the last I've had a decent Quarter Pounder.
No matter what time I go to my local McDonald's I never get a fresh burger.
@@gordonwelcher9598 Sounds like you have a bad local McD's. Sadly not every owner/operator takes pride in how their store runs and just looks for the bottom line.
My new favourite channel. Subbed. Always wanted to work for McDonalds here in Australia. Thanks for the inside track on what its like. Cheers.
I used to work in food service, and sometimes I miss it. The job I work now pays almost twice as much as I made in food service, but sometimes it’s boring/unfulfilling. A job like this, you know you are bringing some immediate satisfaction to someone out there, and it’s the same if not harder in difficulty than most high paying jobs. It doesn’t seem unreasonable to me that, living in such an advanced world, someone should be able to work wherever they please based on the things that bring them satisfaction, and be paid a comfortable living wage for it. All of us humans helped build this world we live in, so we should all collectively benefit from it. Thank you for these videos and keep up the good work!
This guy is every Mc Donalds Bosses dream. What a pace, what a pro!
bro, who's just out there ordering a burger without the buns 7:11
ppl w dogs
I work at mcdonalds and I can tell you we see them all day every day
Low carb/no carb diets or gluten free diet
When I worked at Starbucks I learned the value of clear and efficient communication. It's one of my favorite parts about food service.
Something I find really surprising is how few big Macs they seem to have to make and just how many fillet o fishes they get through. I thought it'd be the other way around
It mostly depends on the day since I work as a cashier filets are rare and sometimes they are more but it depends each day on the customers
Nope it’s in a white location
It usually is, lol. On a normal day, we RARELY take fish.
@@Baja2424 uhh aight then
@@Baja2424 where I live you only see one race eating those and it ain't white
Very informative and educational. Respect for your work ethic.👍
Makes me appreciate my slow paced truck driving job. Damn nice work!
that's a new yt video genre and it's my favourite
I am just impressed that he centered the cheese on those fish filets. Usually my filet is fused to the bun and cheese half falling off the bun. 😅
Never had a filet O fish in my life. I binged on your videos for awhile and noticed that the fish sandwich gets ordered enough that I tried my first one over the weekend. It was better than I expected but won't go out my my way for one. I think it needs to be a little bigger and add some lettuce and pickles.
The fish gets sold minimally. You probably only really want to get one when you come late to a rush period. If not, it's likely that it's been sitting till near the end of the "safe consumption time". Kindof the same with fries. Show up slightly after a rush starts to avoid soggy fries.
Go during lent. Filet O Fish is always fresh. Probably will even have to pull up and wait. I used to keep pen tallies of sandwiches made and during lent. A 6 hour closing shift was over 100 Filet of Fish or around 20-25 made an hour.
this is so satisfying to watch
Damn, I just came across your channel. I am an Air Traffic Controller and I have to say. We have to be quick, pay attention to detail, and deal with stress. What you do is just as stressful, if not more, then what I do! I wish all McDonald's employees were as good as you are brother!
HOW IS THIS SO ADDICTING TO WATCH TELL ME WHY LOL
As much as I love seeing how things work behind the counter, it also makes me so damn hungry and I hate it. 🤣
Same exact feeling here, lol!
Especially all that bacon and nuggs
Idk how I got so glued to watching some guy make McDonalds its so satasfying
so much effort respect to all mcd workers
Had two double cheeseburgers today and it's because of these videos. Extra ketchup and extra pickles!!!
Do not explote dude while you eating too much 🤣
@@DjCyberZonex I passed out for almost two hours after eating them. Had my McDonald's quota for the next month.
Haven’t worked fast food since Hardee’s and Wendy’s from 84-87, but damn this makes me want to do it again.
Omg 89-91 here and just told my husband I think I want to go back. My era, no warmers. For all the food. Only nugs and chicken got a drawer. Everything else was made but tray. They would say 12 reg or whatever. I just dont know if I could handle all the beeping.
@@bcrafty12 I've never worked fast food but that beeping is already getting to me after 5 minutes of a video. How do people stand that for 8 hours??
@@thecattermat exactly. I didnt seem to have an issue back in the day. But I dont listen to the videos. I just put them on and watch. Not sure why, just like the fast pace.
@@thecattermat 8hours? That's a short day i used to work 10-13 hour shifts daily
For some reason it’s oddly satisfying watching these videos
Tbh watching this satisfies my OCD i don't know why..everything is done smoothly and just utterly so satisfying..
From someone who works in the quick service industry I love the POV videos. What’s the craziest thing you’ve had to make for a customer?
Big Mac only tartar
A meatball wrap with extra mayo 🤣
Hamburger special request. Cook the meat three times.
I've had to make a big mac with no mac sauce but add tartar
Hot n Spicy sub 1 chicken nugget
The worst part about eating at McDonald’s is when your done!
Or when your break is over
Last year I went to mcdonalds for the first time in a few years. The expectation was huge but when I came in it was busy, long waiting and almost couldn't find a seat. When I finally got my cold and mushy fries and sloppy burger there was a fight going on between some customers. They were hitting each other and swearing while the mcd crew didn't give a shit. Never again lol
Hehe that's true
@@MrHenkkkie yeah some people like it some people don’t.
Nah bro, the worst part eating at mcdonald's is the karend who fighting over a table.
I’m dizzy from watching this dude!!
He’s the man!!!
The greatest FOOD on earth. Amazingly delicious and tasty. I can’t wait to eat McDonalds again
I bet he still hears beeping when he gets home
Thank you for being so professional in this line of work for our world. I worked at chili's and the kids use to drop food on the floor and still serve them. As a previous chef, I honor you.
3 second rule 😂
@@organicmechanic5150 🤣
this is the greatest mcdonald's ad ever
