    Does McDonalds look like...

    Not sure if this counts as a sighting or not, since I wasn't officially at work when it happened.

    I'm wearing my <office supply store> shirt and sitting at McDonalds while I wait and pray for the rain to let up before I make the long trek to work.

    And someone walks up and asks me a store-related question.

    I'm sorry...I must have mistaken McDonalds for the <office supply store>'s customer service desk. My bad.

    oh god i thought this was a Whiskey sighting. I was in mcdonalds drunk as hale last night.

    I still managed to say please and thank you.


    can you tell me why they have a double cheeseburger and a mcdouble? that was the first time i'd eaten at a mcdonalds in like 2 years (at least its not an office supply question )

    This is why i wear an undershirt to work or stuff one in my purse. the second i'm off i'm in plain clothes.

      The mind boggles when you think how distinctive McDonalds uniforms are ... compared to say Staples. You would think the lack of visor and golden arches would be a distinct giveaway.

        Well that and you generally don't as McDonald's employees about 35 milimeter slides, or whatever the hell it was.

        We have an agreement. McDonalds doesn't try to sell our product replacement plans and we don't try to make Big Macs.

        And I think the McDouble thing was just a ploy to get the double cheesebruger off the dollar menu and to start jacking the price on it, but that's my theory.

        Ordinarily I would definitely wear something over the shirt, but at the moment I'm between homes and every article of clothing I have has to last me a while so getting two shirts sweaty and/or wet doesn't behoove me.

        The rain only got worse between McDonalds and ,office supply store.. But my laptop, the extra battery and my important things survived. I was able to get a dry shirt. I had to throw away three of my tarot decks as they would have only gotten moldy but, I'm Salem now.

        They have more tarot decks in Salem than Boston has bottles of Guiness....

          You know...I have always wondered about the McDouble vs. the double cheeseburger, too... I really can't tell much of a difference. The McD's here used to have it so the McDouble didn't get those disgusting onion bits on it, but they started putting them on.

            Where I live, McDouble=two meats, one cheese. Double Cheesburger=two meats, two cheeses.

            At least that's how it is in West Michigan.

                That is the only difference (ex mcdonald's employee here) Double cheese is two meat two cheese. A McDouble is two meat, one cheese. That's it.

                    ugh, those onions. When I worked there night shift would dare each other to eat a spoonful and not gag. It usually took money to induce someone to do it, the smell when we first added water was incredible.

                    At DD's it was 'shots'...a cup of on shot of every flavouring we had.

                    Why do people make each other eat nastiness?

                      I actually like the rehydrated onions. *shrugs* From articles I've read, the McDouble is almost a lost liter for McD's. They make only a few cents per sandwich, which I'm sure is why they removed a single piece of cheese and renamed the burger.

                              Just as I thought. Blatantly ripping off BK with their "Buck Double" nonsense. Hey, inflation marches on, you really can't blame them.
