...At 83 years old, she just crossed her 50th year working there, a career that started in the days when Ronald McDonald was the actual "burger king."

"Nobody works for 50 years anymore, let alone a fast food restaurant," said Madeline Scales, a co-worker VonDielingen's and the wife of his grandson.

"They worked with me when my kids were little, and I thought, 'Why should I walk out on them?'" VonDielingen said.

Speaking of her loved ones, they've pretty much all worked at the McDonald's too.

"I have three daughters that worked here," VonDielingen said. "I had two son-in-laws that worked here. I had three granddaughters that work here.

"You want something, you got to work for it," VonDielingen added. "It's not supposed to be just handed to you."

Criticize McDonalds all you want but to make uncalled for snide remarks about an 83 year old lady who looks her age, is not appropriate.

Now go have your porridge for dinner.

“I wonder if she had health insurance. She didn’t that means I paid for it”

There is a reason people say think before opening your mouth ...

Kudos from Clara Peller!

“Now go have your porridge for dinner.”

Healthier than McDonald’s crap, and at least I can Virtue Signal if I eat porridge.

Now, BobL guessing that you only eat organic wagyu burgers, massaged by maidans for maximum tenderness.
And they were fed lots of beer...

Clearly above my station in life.

That said, years ago worked at McDonald's Headquarters in Oak Brook, Illinois, a very good place to work.

It would be better if you did not besmirch the product. The meat is very good and came from OTTO Bros.

Not JUNK.

I'm not exactly a high-brow kind of guy, so I won't comment on your mental capacity.
It's the internet, no one knows if you are a dog.

Good for her. She seems to like what she’s doing. Super important. Theres purpose and identity there.

[laplata]

As long as you leave the old lady alone.

[BobL]

I like it - note my tag line (not too many looking at it these days, LOL).

[Secret Agent Man]

She looks like your typical 83 year old.

[BobL]

“As long as you leave the old lady alone.”

She’s fine, and she took good care of herself!

(and still does)

With you being a big gormandizer and all it is not right for you to bad mouth Mickey D’s.
That is boorish and wrong

PLS see #65.

BINGO!!!

YES, a comfortable existence.

—”I like it - note my tag line (not too many looking at it these days, LOL).”

And that is a surprising fact Jack (BobL).

Thank you.

drool.... fried apple pies. they were da bomb!

[DUMBGRUNT]

Like a tagline chameleon!

—” BobL (I eat at McDonald’s, I just don’t tell anyone.)”

—” BobL By the way, low tonight in Estonia: 46 degrees)”

But I’d give you some credit for your road to Damascus moment.

What about years 1 through 33?

[freedomjusticeruleoflaw]

Your mom should have thought bohm. .

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

In that case, given one of your previous taglines, you probably look like Jebediah Morningside, LOL.

Congratulations on 63 good years of marriage! You’re like my grandparents, who had been married nearly 70 years when Grandpa passed.

Might be “junk food”, but the $1 Sausage Egg McMuffin, senior coffee, and free ice cream cone kept me going at mile 10 of a 25-mile bike ride. All for $2.05, tax included.
