Methinks it is also what McDonald's wants.If so, then why did they wait all these years to do so?
I worked for McDonald's (on the corporate side) for almost all of the last decade, and based on everything I ever saw there, they are honest and decent, and really do care about their employees.
There is a limit to anything. What with all the demands that private insurers pay for illegals and indigents in their hospital bills, eventually the costs get out of hand. Once uncle sugar offers a way out without hurting their people, what do you think they're going to do?
