^ starting pay 7.75/h 15 cent raise every 6 months and 50% off any mcdicks in canada, 25% off shoes at payless (i only buy work shoes there anyways, so its not that great), 10% off regular priced merchandise at future shop stores across canada, train ticket discounts, 10% off choice hotels canada, etc. i forget the rest.

#6 always go to drivethrough and order 2 double cheeseburgers off the dollar menu but ask for no cheese so you get good cost for hamburgers cuz their cheese is disgusting fake proscessed american shit cheese which i hate and they dont have premade double hamburgers so they have to make fresh hot ones which i enjoy eating.

not a run on sentence at all.

thats pretty good pay, i mean most mc d's around me start you out at 8 usd an hour, 15 an hour is amazing for flipping burgers

McDonalds (+ rest of fast food corporate industry) is actually so fucking processed it's ridiculous. Honestly, after reading a book about the whole deal, I don't think I can eat there again without being stoned as fuck.

Fast Food Nation perhaps? If so, this book changed my perspective on the fast food industry as well as other large industries.

While I can see how thats a valid point I also see how Mcd likes to be control freaks over thier employees.

But on another note did you know that some MCDs have a dumpster full of grease somewhere on the property? I didnt know that untill like a year ago. Its so much fun to throw random objects in there

It's very similar, but it goes more in depth to the chemistry and such of what actually goes down.

Tip #I forget what number:

Ask for a double cheese burger and hold the lettuce. Don't be frontin' son no seeds on the bun. We be up in this drive thru, order for two, I got a cravin' for a number 9 like my shoe. We need some chicken up in here, in this hizzle. For rizzle my nizzle extra salt on the frizzle. Doctor Pepper by brother, and another for your mother. Double double supersize and don't forget the fries.

yeah... my new loft.. 600 a month... you can find good prices and a nice place if you're willing to sacrifice, personally i love my new loft, it's got brick walls, some are drywall with ivory paint, and hardwood, floors, and this is in massachusetts, cost of living in the northeast is pretty high, but if you know where to look/are willing to make some sacrifices than it's cool, my apartment has 2 rooms and a bathroom, so it's prettttty dope
