McDonalds said Monday that its new "McJobs", which will staff restaurants across the U.S., will include crew and management positions, part-time and full-time, bringing its total U.S. workforce to 700,000.

Small business employers are highly impacted because of Obamacare, and just about every other thing he has done in office.
50,000 jobs for people who can't find anything.
You know - the people who are told to flip burgers if they can't find a job at their level on any level at all.
We got some tough tests for McDonald’s employees huh?
Since they’ll be basically working for gas money, better drug test them too!
Looking sharp America!
I agree. Why are people always denigrating jobs at McDonald’s? For that matter, all honest jobs are good. Young workers learn important skills at McDonald’s or any other first job, and I know of people who started at an entry-level job at McD’s and worked their way up to hihg-paying manager and district manager positions.
If the new hires are mostly illegals, then that tells you something about our welfare system. Why work when you can have babies and collect checks?
Really? The coffee at our McDonald’s is excellent. Now, it does get a little harder to get fresh in the afternoons, especially when the weather warms up, but usually it’s great.
You can get brewed coffee at Walmart?
And some people are doing the Dave Ramsey thing and working there to earn extra money to pay off debt.
I have had 2 daughters that have worked there in high school.
It was an excellent experience for both.
Yeah, illegals don’t sit around and have millions of babies on the tax payers expense!
Those 1000 anchor babies being produced at Parkland hospital in Dallas Texas every single month are all from hard working tax paying illegal aliens, all paid for with their McDonald’s medical benefits!
No, my point was that if we did not have our welfare system, then the people sitting around having babies at our expense would have to work and would not be having so many kids.
The welfare system is a double whammy. It discourages work and encourages illegal immigration. You won’t get any argument from my about the problem of anchor babies and the 2nd generation from immigrants going on the dole. It is destroying us.
The last time I went into a McDonalds there was nothing but Spanish speakers behind the counter and noticed they put in cash registers with pictures so their illegal alien employees could run them.
I swore I would never ever go back and I didnt..
I really hate that company...
Long ago I found that there are usually a number of local, less-known places to eat such as In and Out Burger, Malt Shoppe, etc. that simply gave a better quality burger and fries for what I paid.
Sounds like they will be ready to be the new soup kitchens.
yes, but what about the ‘quality’ of the jobs </sarcasm>
The Corp world are scared $&!+less of these Chicago GoodFellas...
You bet...
The reason I hate fat greedy corps like McDonalds so much, is they hire illegals, pay them gas money, and the American people are totally stuck paying for all their endless crippling medical care and millions of babies....As McDonald's, like Congress, laughs in our faces, counting their fat illegal profits on the backs of American citizens.
To be fair, I think *anyone* that hires illegal aliens, should be prosecuted, horse whipped then jailed.
Well, at least we know what they had to do to get the exemption to Obamacare.
Wait until that exemption expires, as you pointed out so graphically, isn’t Moochelle looking to shut them down?
You forgot drug test.
It is on the door as walk into Home Depot.
Funny isn’t it, the lowly Home Depot employee has to be randomly drug tested, yet cops, teachers and congress are not.
Great Value brand, you brew it yourself.
Walmart has tons of great products.
It keeps down the lawsuits and longterm disability insurance.
the big differenc is:
Private sector vs. public sector(union).
The board of directors and managers of Home Depot are paid by the stockholders to actually MAKE A PROFIT. They typically are paid based on that profitability. Therefore, they have a vested interest in keeping down costs due to employee problems like accidents on the job because somebody is stoned.
Did you think a company which is a criminal illegal sanctuary cares about anything else
except their profits,regardless of consequences?
I wish them, their investors and their customers the very worst.
How much to the board of directors and managers of these Home Depot's receive in kick backs for being an illegal alien sanctuary?
