Seen at our local McDonald's pic.twitter.com/InhWzowlVm Wait, did they seriously have a shift of ONE PERSON at an entire mcdonalds such that one person quitting mid-shift shut it all down?I'm willing to believe that, but my goodness, the sheer amount of neglectful staffing involved...!Whoever walked off from that crap is great! McDonalds was my first official job at 16 and one of the hardest jobs I've had to date. I'm glad that this is happening https://t.co/ggdoj0vw6h I'm working a job where we have less than half the employees that corporate has deemed required for the business to function and I am exhausted. Workers were already stretched to their limits before the pandemic. Of course people are going to break down under these conditions. Underneath: AI will replace all of us because we are not willing to do the job we applied for The Twitter user who shared the picture of McDonald's employee's novel resignation said in a follow-up tweet that it was put up by night shift manager who quit suddenly. "I spoke with the staff at this McDonald's today. It turns out the sign was put there by a night shift manager who suddenly quit, and it was left up overnight," he said. The tweet has racked up over 2 lakh 'likes' and 20,000 retweets since it was shared.
