Discussion (USA) putting my two weeks in because mold got me sick

28 Upvotes

I've known for a while about the mold in the ABS machines, and I clean it everyday, but I don't work everyday. They're supposed to take it apart every night, they evidently do not. I worked last sunday, and I was doing my routine of cleaning the Frappe machine by blending hot water into it. While it was rinsing comma I noticed a lot of what my manager calls "sugar", its white-brown gooey stuff, so I wiped it down, and then since I was already wiping it down, I was kind of toying around, feeling around the inside, and I started ripping black mold out of it. I was standing there for about 20 minutes, wiping and scraping black mold out of there, and I didn't even clean it all the way. That was one blender, no matter how much I wiped before I would still have a rag full of black mold when I go back in. Flash forward to yesterday, I'm sick at school with chest pains and almost every symptom of mold exposure. Today I didn't even go in, I stayed home because of how horrible it was. I work tomorrow and I'm tempted to not even put my two weeks in, I just want to not show up again.

I feel like I almost have a duty to the public, I've told pretty much everybody at my school not to have any Frappes. Tomorrow when I work, I want to wear a covid mask and get back in there cleaning as deep as I can. It's actually disgusting in there and I'm ashamed for working there in the first place.

Edit: i used voice typing for some of it and forgot to turn the word "comma" into an actual comma. Also some capitalization fixes.

Employee question Why do y’all have such hard times changing BIBs😭 (USA)

14 Upvotes

I don’t know if it’s just my store but I’m always the one having to change BIBs (the bags of soda syrup in boxes) because nobody knows how to open them. It’s getting frustrating because when I’m training new hires, I show them how to easily open them but after I’m not with them for 2-3 shifts, it’s like they magically forget.

I swear it’s a miracle my store lasted as long as it did before I came in…

Discussion Have you guys had customers assume you are AI? (AUS)

9 Upvotes

I worked drive thru alone for the first time last night and had three different customers tell me they were shocked when they pulled to window and I was a real human being. They keep thinking that my voice on the drive thru speakers is an AI. I told my coworkers and none of them had that experience 😭 Are any of you guys getting accused of being AI?

Rant 2nd day today. I felt stupid (CAN)

7 Upvotes

They let me handled drive thru on my second day during lunch time. The customers piled up quickly and I just went blank. I suddenly don’t know how to count the money and give them the change. Then the trainor says “don’t just stand there. Learn something or else we won’t give you shifts”. Power tripping on my 2nd day

Employee question OTP Pro? How’s your work-life balance? (USA)

4 Upvotes

Was recently offered the position of OTP Pro which is a salary position. It’s a 30% raise than what i’m making now as an IT Network Administrator.

I’d just like to ask about what your schedule looks like and how your work-life balance is.

Discussion Becoming a Swing/Shift Manager (CAN)

2 Upvotes

For any managers out there do you have any tips on being a good manager and running shifts? I got pulled aside earlier today during my shift and they want me to start doing my modules for manager and be promoted to manager in a few weeks . I also have to get verified by my manager before I can be promoted. (I'm a little surprised though because I don't know kitchen that well, but I know front counter like super well. Also because I just got promoted to team lead last week) Also for any managers out there are you available anytime or no? My availability right now is only Monday-Saturday, but they want me to work Sunday's as well because according to them it's not "fair" to the other people.

So yesterday afternoon was supposed to be my scheduled phone interview for McDonald’s but the hour came and went and I received no call. Luckily I was able to reschedule for today but what if they don’t call me again? What should I do then?

Discussion (USA) how bad is the Monopoly event for you guys?

1 Upvotes

I have not worked at McDonald’s for a while since I went to college but I’m about to work at McDonald’s in 2 days. One thing I heard when the monopoly event goes on is that the customers are annoying about it.

I haven’t worked during the monopoly promotion, is this true? Should I expect customers to be annoying about it?
