‘Bad management usually causes that’: McDonald’s manager arrives at 4am for breakfast shift. No other workers showed up

A video of a McDonald’s manager revealing no other employees showed up at 4 a.m. for the breakfast shift went viral on TikTok.

Brandon (@ragestreamer93) is reportedly a manager at McDonald’s. He posted a video of how no employees showed up at 4 a.m. The video features the TikToker giving a tour of the empty store as he reveals that it was 6:15 a.m. and nobody showed up.

Brandon reportedly arrived at 3:30 a.m. to prepare for the day. At his store, employees are supposed to arrive at 4 a.m. so they can open at 5. 

“I’m not sure if you noticed but right now it’s 6:15 in the morning,” Brandon begins, “the McDonald’s I work at, employees are supposed to get here at 4 to open at 5. Well, I don’t know if you just noticed, no employees.”

Originally, two employees and a maintenance man were supposed to clock in, and each hour, a couple of employees were due to show up. With each passing hour, no employees come in, all of them no call, no show. By 6:15, Brandon is livid as only he and the maintenance man were there to serve breakfast, fuming that he had to do everything by himself, threatening to write them up.

Brandon posted in the comments, “No one walked out/quit, they were bluntly 3hrs late! The GM came in around 6:15 to help me for a few hours.”

The video has been viewed over a million times since it was posted July 15. In the comments, TikTokers found themselves divided, with some criticizing Brandon.

It’s called no work ethic.

They just don’t care anymore.

If there are no customers I don’t blame them.

And they are probably not the people you want to trust to prepare your food.

My brother owns a few restaurants. This is the norm for food retail industry. Employees who quit, steal or f around. The Mickey D’s manager at least now knows that you have to keep interviewing.

here in L.A.. McD’s hires at $17 to start and they still couldn’t fill in the positions at some restos I pass by daily..

Go to Chic-Fil-A or In-N-Out. Those employees care!

Go to Chic-Fil-A


Had lunch at one today, and they continue to be head and shoulders above the rest.

“They just don’t care anymore.”

I got home from the Navy in 70 and one week later my Mother asked me ‘when are you getting a job?’.

There’s always something that needs to be done at any place of business, especially a fast-food place. If your job stipulates that you have to be there at 4, that’s when you show up.

$17/hr ain’t what it used to be—and doesn’t go far in CA.

Garbage men get paid more because it is gross work, and getting to Micky D’s by 4:15 am deserves some sort of premium.

Return the 40 million illegals in the country now and such entry-level work will be paid better—or disappear.

I don't suppose he could open for business without workers.

The employees at Los Pollos Hermanos seem to care too.

I feel their pain. Back in the day, I used to have to report at 5AM for a cleaning crew at a local mall for $4/hr. That was in 1982 when it was very hard to find any kind of summer job.

This is what happens when kids aren’t properly raised, disciplined and taught that actions have consequences.

Participation trophies and time-outs aren’t cutting it.

I dunno. Now a single guy drives the garbage truck and the picking up/emptying of containers is done by a robotic arm.

The other day I was talking to a guy who works in the retail grocery business, and he said that one of their biggest problems is just finding people who will show up every day.
