What are some responsibilities of a crew trainer. also do they have access to the ISP or have a code (NEWPOS) to do employee meals. I asked all of the manager and even the store manager and they say IDK i am the first Crew Trainer at my restaurant all of our manager skipped Crew Trainer and went straight to manager |

| Hold times |
[Apr. 27th, 2012|01:18 pm] |
B honest: who are managers/have managers who honor the hold times on food, and who have the ones who don't?
My new boss has gone food-cost crazy at our store. She actually gets mad if we throw out product that has expired. She wants us to just reset the timer unless it "looks bad." If she sees wasted food in our destroyed food bins, she gets onto us about food cost and how "it's our raises and meals on the line." It's also funny as she specifically tells at us if that if we're caught doing it during and inspection we are fired. Just any other time it's cool, lol.
Does this happen in other stores? Maybe for food cost reasons, or just laziness (don't want to cook more patties or chicken, so they just reset the timer). |

So i am going in for my first day at McD. I have been pretty nervous as this is my first job. (Long story involving a very vicious circle). But i have to say, reading all these posts has made my nerves turn into excitement. Other than stupid customers(i cant believe people really do some of this stuff) and some crazy sounding managers and crew, most people seem to really enjoy their jobs. I am proud to say i'm joining the work force finally, and also joing the ranks of,as i have seen it written, McEmployees. Thanks to all for your stories. Doesn't look like people post much these days but i think it'll be nice to read this sometimes and know that other people feel the way im inevitably going to feel. |

Hey community i recently been hired at a mcdonalds i applyed for the shift manager position and tomorrow is my second day working at that one. i worked at another mcdonalds for seven months about a year ago so i kinda know what im working with, but one question before i go into my topic. is the new mcdonalds cash resgister screen with all the pics easier than the old pos screen? thats the one im accustomed to. but on to the question the mcdonalds i work at told me i gonna be a M.I.T for two weeks, they told me i will be running shifts. so ima gonna have to suck in everything quick, but the thing that kinda puzzles me is they gave me a crew shirt instead of a usual button down. the manager told me i will be wearing the crew shirt for two weeks because im gonna be a crew,swing,shift manager in training or until he tells me to wear a button down... did any of you managers have to go thru this. im not making a big deal about it im just curious. feel free to comment anyone... |

| FOR |

All right, I have a question that I'm hoping you guys can shed some light on.
I've worked through an FOR before. I ended up skipping school to be there. This year, it's a 2 day FOR. One of these days is my normal work day, the other, I have classes from 11:45am to 5:45pm. But I am almost certain my store is going to schedule me for that day and tell me to miss school instead.
I see their point of view, with knowing the date ahead of time and wanting you there, but I also am against having to skip classes to be there when I am going to be there for sure the first day. I was in community college before and I could get away with missing a day, but I'm in my first year of university now and I am swamped just trying to stay on top of my grades. Not to mention the FOR dates, December 14 and 15 I believe, coincide with the end of my semester, which is the 20th. So I definitely don't want to be missing classes so close to finals.
So my question to you guys is this. I'm going to approach my boss about this, I was told as long as I don't have an attitude about it she will work with me. Is it right of them to want to make me miss school for one of those days when I can't afford to? What if they try to threaten to have me there or risk a write-up, suspension or worse? What should I do?
I appreciate any and all input. |

| employee-customer relationships |
[Oct. 30th, 2011|12:37 pm] |
Hey everyone so I have been following this page for a while and though I am not an employee I am interested in gettin the inside story so I can write an ethnographic paper on McDonalds. I am wondering...
Are there any codes that employees must follow when working with customers? If so what are they?
What kind of training do you go through when being trained how to work with customers?
Do they ask you questions during your interview that would give them an idea about how you work with people?
what are the standards for highering?
What are you told to say when talking to customers?
What kinds of customers do you get at mccdonalds regularly? Ethnicity, gender, age of most customers?
What are customers overall attitudes towards you when dealing with them?
Do you enjoy working with the customers?
How do you try and build a great customer relationship?
Do you feel like you are a part of a community when you work?
do you resent those you work with? Why?
do you resen your customers? Why?
Have movies like Super Size Me, and books like Fast Food Nation affected your experience as an employee?
What is your work environment like?
what is managment like?
What is the overall quality of your service? if poor, why?
What would you do to improve your environment and customer relations? |

Hi I'm new to this group and new to mcdonalds. I have been working there for four days and it just seems like no matter how harder I try I just get yelled at for everything. I think the only two things that I'm decent at is making fries and presenting orders. I'm okay at the cash register....I just don't know all the buttons and my managers get extremely mad at me when I ask questions. I just wish they would be patient with me for a little while instead of giving me a hard time because it just doesn't make it any easier. I hate that its like that because I have a really good crew and I like them. I just hate to be sat in front of something not really knowing what to do.
Mainly, I was just wondering does anyone have any tips to help? Things I could do to impress my managers? I'm always moving and I try to maintain a positive attitude and I'm always up to learn anything they wanna teach me. Is this job just not for me? Does it ever get a little bit easier? |
