I hear people complaining about it all the time and say the only positive about it is the money. What are the complaints? The way the food is made? The schedule? Or is it just McDonalds?

Are the people fun to work with/nice?
Is cooking fast stressing/a challenge?

What are the positives?


My first job was working at Wendy's for 6 months. It really wasn't too bad, to be honest. A few things, however, made me quit:
-This restaurant was located in such a place that a lot of preteens/middle schoolers liked to hang out. They would always give everyone working a problem, including me.
-A lot of the fun employees that I worked with quit.
-There was one manager who was a complete prick.
-The scheduling for working hours was completely sexist.
-The stink of coming home smelling like grease was a turn-off.

There were positives, sure. I learned patience. I learned how to work as a team. I learned people skills.
