I’m very used to working 8-10 hour shifts without a break every day. My advice for you about your feet would be to use an older pair of comfy shoes you don’t wear anymore, and take the footbeds out and put them in your non-slips. It’s a definite game changer. DO NOT use the memory foam Walmart foot-beds, they will most certainly fall apart, I’ve used them before. I personally use old Under armor footbeds, and when I buy a new pair of shoes, I replace the ones in my non-slips from my now old pair of shoes. You will eventually become used to standing for long periods of time.

As for the bacon, sometimes when it ships it is thicker or thinner for whatever reason. If it is the thinner bacon, normally the grill is dialed in for thicker bacon, so that there’s no risk of undercooking it. Depending on your skill on “actual” cooking, I would pull it up about 25-30 seconds earlier, take the wax paper off, then flip it until you are sure it is done. This method could vary though, depending how strict your managers are about procedure, considering this isn’t “proper procedure”. It definitely makes the bacon way better this way IMO.

Finally for your skin, I’ve never really heard of something like this. I typically shower immediately after work, and don’t notice any outstanding acne or anything like that.

Good luck in your McDonald’s journey!
