Pretending to work is the most relatable thing he's ever done. Hope he loses tho.

WTF is this bullshit about McD's not hiring felons? That's patently false.

[-] Rhaedas@fedia.io 50 points 1 day ago

You're probably right. On your application you have to say if you have felonies or not, and it's not an automatic refusal. He wouldn't have enough room to list his though, so might be a red flag to the manager.

Another article said that the McD headquarters doesn't hire felons, but the franchises can do whatever they want and some don't do background checks.

I was stuck at imagining Trump going through an interview as a manager. Imagine when they ask him what he would do in situations with diverse hires, or how to make schedules without favoritism, his views on maintaining food safety and standards, how he plans to handle difficult customers. The rants would be epic. If you let him speak he'll talk himself out of a job in the first 3 minutes.

Trump is not qualified to hold any job whatsoever in the American business landscape. He has no skills for any technical work, he would be terrible working a service job, and he is absolutely horrendous at business with his reliable track record of failures, bankruptcies and grifts.

The only job he is qualified for appears to be conman politician for the GOP, where the standards are so low that nobody can find the floor.

And, if Elon is any example, CEO.

Not in Colorado (and other areas)

California as well, it’s called the “ban the box” law here.

[-] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 13 points 1 day ago

A lot of places ask if you have a criminal record, often so they can not hire you for totally unrelated reasons wink wink.

There's something of a campaign to get applications to not ask: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ban_the_Box

I thought it was just because the man really likes McDonald's.

The best part is this was for athletes. At least atheletes can burn off the calories from all the exercise they do. Not that that really fully negates the poison they're putting in their bodies.

I am a former adult cross country marathon athlete, now with less marathon and more glorious dad bod. So eating healthy ultraprocessed “junk” over 3000-4000 calories a day was my life, for years (the 90s was a thing). You do not eat mcdonalds if you are a health conscious athlete. it is NOT calories in/out. Soo much crap for the body to process, there is nothing nutritious for mcds, even the salad is bad for you.

I ONCE had mcd’s night before a race and felt like shit during the race, which was followed up by, yes you guessed it, had the SHITS while i powered through it and ran my race. Post race, i would have thought I had the flu based on how bad i felt. This is in the 90s of course, when Mcds was going through their “our hamburgers are 100% beef” stage. It tasted great, until it didn’t.

So yes, we can burn through those calories, but your stomach/asshole be damned.

[-] Zier@fedia.io 10 points 1 day ago

He did this because he loves McD's and was enraged that the "colored woman" worked there. It ruined it for him because he is a shallow, thin skinned racist. This is his priority. Not affordable healthcare for all Americans, of which he has a "concept of a plan". A plan he had _4 years as President _to do something about.

You should cross post this to political weirdos.

The government parking tags on the window of that vehicle in the drive thru window helps pull together how lazy and cynical each picture is.
