McDonalds
i started at mcdonalds a few days ago. my manager HATES me already. i'm gonna get fired within the week.
so far i have:
- stupidly dragged a wet mop through the work area
- left the mop bucket in the dining area
- pressed the wrong button to stop the frier timers
- cleaned up some wet napkins on the floor when i shouldn't have, because apparently they were soaking up a mess
- failed at making chips. i cannot make chips. i have NO idea what i'm doing wrong. they just won't go into the damn boxes :'(
- not put a lid on a coke properly
- i think that's all
i'm perplexed as to why the training program is so highly regarded. thus far my training has involved being assigned to another cashier and following that person around. they show you how to do some things, but... my person was not particularly adept at explaining things in a way that makes sense to a complete newbie.
i'm on cashiers on my next shift. i've have practically no experience using the interface and serving the customers, because i've been assigned to do dining and other shit for hours. anyone can wipe tables/sweep floors/change rubbish bags, because these are basic things which everyone has done before. i don't think that's real training. why am i expected to be useful before i've been fully/properly trained to do things?
