    “Some customers are fed up and pushing back”

    But continuing to buy things from them, yeah? Companies are not going to change until people stop buying from them.

    Nobody needs McDonald’s. I’m not even sure most people actually want McDonald’s. Just stop going, seriously.

      I hate McDonald’s. I eat McDonald’s. If I get into some tiny town or get off work in a tiny town at 11pm or later it’s often the only place open.

      What I don’t understand is people who eat there by choice. I sometimes work with a guy who will go to McDonald’s by choice, even with better/cheaper options, three times a day.

      I wonder how much of McDonald’s average franchise net income is from road warriors.

        God damn. What fucked up nightmare is this if your ONLY choice is this toxic shitty unhealthy food?

        You poor fucking bastard. Your health will pay for that in time.

          You can get $1 breakfast sandwiches and $2 mcchicken with free fries in the app. I definitely use it when I want the cheapest lunch or breakfast option

          A ton of people work poor jobs or unfortunate hours and have their health suffer for it. No need to rub it in, he clearly doesn’t think it will be healthy.
