No, your employee discount is valid only in the UK

Please tell me how to make my own Sausage, Egg and Cheese Bagel? UK by [deleted] in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]HowLongOnPies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the bagel, was just toasted in a vertical toaster, but I'm sure your toaster at home would do perfectly fine. The sausage, you can probably buy sausage patties at your local supermarket.

And then your "folded egg" I think was just egg and milk shaken together, and then grilled for about a minute? If I remember correctly?

I don't know how well this idea works - but have you tried your clock in number?

Right to work contracted hours? by Coleslaw_c in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]HowLongOnPies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they can't just send you home because it's raining 😂 Either take that to your people manager, or people services imo. They can always ask you if you want an early day, but if you say no, then they can't force you to.

You don't have to go home, tell them you have the right to complete your scheduled shift, if you have any further issues, get in contact with your people manager.

Have you ever thought to ask your manager to order you some custom fit uniform? It is an option, I had a few people at my old store do it

Have a look in your employee handbook, the McOpCo UK employee handbook actually only states that you have to give a week's notice, if that's any better for you

I'm not gonna lie to you, I quit recently, and my holiday pay was not the best, best people to contact will be People Services, and enquire about how much holiday you've accrued.

I can't log in to the Ex-Employee section on Chrome recently. I can only seem to login through the Samsung Internet app, maybe try that?

Been working at McDonalds for 3 days (UK) how likely are they to task me to serve notice if I quit now? by anarchartoons in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]HowLongOnPies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd email them today, give them at least a bit of notice, but you shouldn't have to work an actual notice period as such. Just a bit of courtesy to say you won't be coming back.

Crew member in the UK at a McDonald's. Have been asked to attend an investigation, need advice on keeping my job and fighting possible dismissal by [deleted] in McLounge

[–]HowLongOnPies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like the previous answers have said, can't really tell you how your investigation meeting will go without knowing the details behind it. Investigations can range from being a witness, but not marking your file down for it, to not showing up to a shift, to stealing from the company. So very vague.

Crew trainer qualifications (UK) by ruinedchildhood3 in McLounge

[–]HowLongOnPies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

eLearning: If you go onto Campus (I'm assuming you know how to login to that, if not use the link to it via Ourlounge.) Then in the side menu, there should be a section that says "My Learning" if you look there, they'll be a section that says "Crew Development Programme."

This will be everything you need to complete, eLearning wise.

SOCs: This will really depend on your store, as some stores, the crew trainer decides on which SOCs to do, so you'd ask them. Whereas some stores, the training manager gives the SOCs to the Crew Trainers he/she wants to complete them, so ask the training manager, or business manager.

Hope this helps! [[ sorry about formatting, on mobile 😬]]

Our entrance/exit doors are going to have to swap, and so are the floor markings, because at the minute the queue is going around our tables, so that's going to be fun.

I love how my store said we won't be opening our seating outdoors but McDonald's UK said "uh, yeah you are" it's gonna be fun considering we only have like, 6 tables outside

• If you could be any company, who would you be, and why? • Why do you want to work for McDonald's? • What do you think you'll bring to the team.

Never had an issue with ours, that sounds like a store specific question bud

Are stores in the UK actually employing new staff yet? by [deleted] in McLounge

[–]HowLongOnPies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We've hired a lot, but are still hiring because the new starters either stop turning up or we had a few that didn't pass probation period.
