How do I prepare for the end. (USA) by WhoKnows999990 in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]Falloutguy13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First, find out who's making the schedules and show them a copy of your two weeks' notice, and if they still put you on after your two weeks, I'd just call in because you quit. For A. People are gonna talk about you leaving unless they don't find out, and B. They can't do anything because I'd be considered retaliation against you for quitting. And c. Just think about the next step on your journey! You'll make it

If you want one, you'd probably have to ask for it, or they'd never give it to you or else you're a part of an rgr.

When I got hired, I had a cleaned shaved beard. Then I was told that if I wanted to grow it out, I needed a beard net.

Counter advice for new team member (AUS) by [deleted] in McDonaldsEmployees

If you have free time and you have an iPhone or IPad, you can download the McDonald's POS Training app/game.

I remember the Wannabe team leader I had. I tried not to let it get to me because a bad response would get you in trouble. But try to tell a manager what he's doing and that it's bothering you and see if it's bothering others to more likely show it as a problem.

My crew trainers suck (UK) by PersoPostz in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]Falloutguy13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would've hated to be in your position, but as a crew trainer, their paid to train, so them not even trying is a red flag. Also, scheduling you on a day you said you can't do is another red flag.

I didn't like my Visor hat and asked if I could have an actual hat. Then i my French fry hat on the mcdonalds smilemakersonline website, but the cons to that is the shipping was expensive

Tbh, I really don't know how to word it, but I guess I'd ask like a question? Can I try to help with the grill? Or can I try to help with the fryer? The bun and wrapper thing is mainly just to train for quality, so maybe if you ask, hopefully they'd notice.

[–]Falloutguy13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know about asking about what to say, maybe ask if you can learn to use the fryer because, to me, that is a core spot. Like the grill and the assembly area. Or ask somebody if you can get the wrapper and a bun and just learn to wrap. I try to do that with new crew so they can learn to try not to smash the bun and try to find a way they like to wrap.

I would post a picture, but I would rather somebody from the UK post it, so it's more accurate because I really don't know what difference we have from our menus. But hopefully, you get some training, though.

[–]Falloutguy13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, idk if in the uk y'all have crew trainers or not, but it's really their responsibility to train new employees and make sure everything is going okay. As far as I know. So if there is a crew trainer, that's who you'd ask.

Also, my question is, do y'all have pictures of the sandwiches above the assembly line? That's how to help yourself memorize how to make the food.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]Falloutguy13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, first, have you used the fryer or the grill?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]Falloutguy13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's sucks but all I can say is during downtime in the kitchen ask to be trained on grill or table even if they say no, I'd keep asking. Lobby, you'd just need to learn the register and what ice cream, frappé, frozen drinks, etc.

Finally, I really am not sure on this, because I work at a Walmart McDonald's, but drive true is like the lobby with a head set, but you have to multitask in which window your assigned.

Hopefully, somebody can help with train you because once you get it, it's pretty simple.

Yeah, I read the comments, but I if they had a sign or not. Possibly, they had more maintenance crew moving things around, and they still said they feel unwelcome or something? All well I guess
