I really don't see why they would let someone work that much overtime EVERY week for the entire year. Also I would imagine while that would be rather boring after like 6 months they would probably upgrade you to a manager if you were even reasonably useful lol just because McDonald's turnover is so high. Agreed! | ||

Assuming he's already in his 20s I wouldn't waste 1/50th of the rest of my life working that much for a year for 100k. It's not a waste of a year. As long as this man doesn't go into it with the mindset that he'll hate the job, he won't have wasted a year. Working at McDonalds is all about personal interaction and he'll have plenty of opportunities to talk to people and make friends. It will certainly be taxing, but he can do it easily. Oh, and a bitchy manager can ruin your day. | ||

He was talking about the bet with some old friend from high school (IIRC, it's in the thread somewhere) who it turns out is the manager of a McD.. 1 year employment guaranteed basically. | ||

what if he gets a promotion, like right off the bat? what if he bribes to manager to lie? this is a big flop cuz some shit will happen, the man who placed the bet is going to rofl. [spoiler =like during the 11th month.[/spoiler] *calls the manager* "ya this guy is a jackass, please fire him" [/spoiler] | ||
