Worst Year EVER for McDonald's?! - Food Feeder

  • 9 years ago
Here at the Food Feeder, nothing gives us more pleasure than McDonalds. Rather, nothing gives us more pleasure than mocking McDonalds. And lo, we are vindicated, for McDonalds had one of its worst fiscal years ever. Which means a whole bunch of jobs are the chopping block.

Dozens of employees at the company’s Illinois headquarters are not Lovin’ It, as they lost their jobs in McDonalds’ nearly $100 Million cost-cutting efforts. On the flip side of the Chicken McNugget, the Golden Arches is increasing their digital staff by a factor of 10. So, expect 10 times more cheesy hashtags from the official McDonalds Instagram, you guys.

None of these efforts, you’ll notice, actually involve, like, making the food any better or anything. Though they are planning to introduce some stunt restaurant concepts like table service, or the ability to build your own burger.

What do you think of this new trajectory the folks behind McDonalds are developing? Do you follow McDonalds on any of the social Medias? Are you going to start, now that that’s clearly a priority for them? Will you try the McDonalds Build a Burger format, or will you stick to, like, actual restaurants for this sort of thing?

TELL US EVERYTHING!
