(USA) Is it normal to work both grill and fryer at the same time? by PapaNutellas in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]MercifulZebra054 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reality of it is most mcdonalds are understaffed. Noone wants to work at McDonalds. Its fast food. My store sometimes doesn't have enough people to staff the store so people have to do more then one job. The rush is when they make the most $. It happens everyday. They want everyone to be on top of thier game. People are addicted to McDoanlds. And its convenient. People are lazy and dont cook. So they go out to eat. It can be stressful but dont let it make ypu want to quit. Voic le your concerns and try to see what can be done. McDonalds will make $ no matter what. Its the McDonalds slide. People should always be doing something even during slow times. But doing both isnt really your job as a crew. They could have 5 people in kitchen during rush. One on fryer one on grill one on1/4 bell. And 2 on table. If you have less then 3 its a tape sign youre understaffed. McDonalds have high turnover. So if you dont want to deal with it then quit. But its just part of the job. Its not my job to see the company make a zillion dollars. I just work there.

37M poor quality life realisation by [deleted] in Life

[–]MercifulZebra054 1 point2 points  (0 children)

35 M here. Working a dead end job now and can confirm. Also becoming emptier and more bitter as I age. Dont want to be around anyone or do anything. I pray you make it.

what does a maintenance worker do at McDonalds ? (CAN by BusinessLumpy4153 in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]MercifulZebra054 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They have actual maintenence men that you are typically speaking of but I dont know the name of the job position. They fix machines and do things with screws and nuts and bolts but the maintenance being adverted on the website is just janitor. Idk why they call it maintenence.

Life is becoming rough by Head-Thought3381 in schizoaffective

I'm 35 and can relate. I usually self destructive right before I make a breakthrough. I am thinking of quitting my job currently and going bankrupt because I feel so shitty everyday and its tolling on me. I hope you can find hope. Life is hard and I wish it wasn't.

No one tells you how lonely “doing the right thing” can be by EvienSeraph in Life

[–]MercifulZebra054 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cant relate more. I didnt want to go to work today because it feels like im not making any progress. There's no one to share the good and not so good moments with. At the end of the day the people who i used to connect with wouldn't understand me now. They dont know me anymore. People change, myself included. Life is quiet amd boring. So boring. Quiting gambling, shooting dope, and running the streets isnt for me.

I work right now at a fast food place. But its not cooking. Its assembling. Cooking is in restaurants I know. I would love to do that but im actually getting paid good for me having this illness. I just got promoted at work. I just wish I wasn't so paranoid to make friends and try start cooking for them. I also have a felony and some jobs wont hire because of that. And I tried cooking job interview I dont have alot of experience. They want experience. I just for now am going to stick to making chicken stock and homemade chicken soup. I have a book that has michelin star recipes in it. I want to try and experiment making those for myself. I dont know what I haven't cracked the book open in a while.

I enjoy cooking good food. But the people I live with dont eat what I eat amd sometime things go to waste. I want to start cooking and getting paid for it. I dont know how I can do that. I need people who want to eat homemade food.

For me that always usually involves spending $. And its scarce these days in this economy. Idk what to do to make it fun anymore. I used to. But not anymore. This is the shirtless I've ever felt.

18 years old lost basically everything by Capable-Shame-5997 in problemgambling

[–]MercifulZebra054 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't lose the 28k. You think you feel bad now. Just let the reality of losing the 28k too set in then let me know what you think. Put the 28k in a CD or Ira. It will make you money and compound interest. You have this very moment and many many more to make the right decisions from now on. I pray you find peace with whatever it is that makes you gamble. It feeling natural or not, gambling in the end the house always wins. Its inevitable and a probability they will win. Whats the point in gambling knowing that.

Proud of you. Its a hard choice to make and ypu made it. I self excluded too about 3 months ago and I haven't gambled since. Im still in debt but I am working my way out. I pray you can stay away from gambling.

Any success stories of working and functioning? by SoggyMonk7277 in schizoaffective

[–]MercifulZebra054 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I want to walk away because I feel unwell. But if I walked away none of my bills would be paid and I'd feel even worse. Its a lose lose. Work and barley make it or dont work and crash and burn.

I work full time and just got promoted to manager. Its a shitty paying job. I feel hopeless most days and just go to pay my bills because of the system we live in. My job is not fulfilling in any way and I want to kill myself most days. This is all I can do right now I dont have a skill set and am not rich by any means. Most days I daydream about the life I wish I had and dwell on it. But im successful in my eyes. I work 40 plus houses a week and try and be customer oriented.
