He should be able to find another job. He’s a McDonald’s employee.

I guess they’ll be bringing Hunter Biden on board now to save the day. I mean, with his vast experience and all.

Divorced with 3 children.

I was afraid to demand pics of the victim before, but they might be in order.

On the other hand, the perp is a Brit...

He had a ‘consensual’ affair with a colleague. MCD stock price has more than doubled in the last four years, so he must have done a few things right.

“MCD stock price has more than doubled in the last four years, so he must have done a few things right.”

Because they have been buying their own stock back. Sales have been terrible and sluggish and new menu items have failed.

This was just a way to get rid of the guy for bad sales.

He must have known the “consensual relationship” was a violation of corporate policy, but he did it anyway. No doubt he’s still fabulously wealthy by the standards of almost everyone, so maybe he doesn’t care about losing his job.

I wonder how it will work out for his co-participant. Happily ever after?

Good thing it was McDonalds:

Arby's : We have the MEATs.

Wendy's: Where's the BEEF?

Subway: Don't worry Jared you can still get a footlong

Five Guys: Ewww, TMI.

In-N-Out Burger: Way, WAY TMI.

Jack-in-the...let's not even go there.

McDonalds stock has been tanking for a couple of weeks, even while the market has moved higher. Wonder if traders knew about these personnel issues
