If I hated working at McDonald's, would I have hated working at Burger King just as much?

If I hated working at McDonald's, would I have hated working at Burger King just as much?

What kind of restaurant would a former McDonald's employee like working at better if they hated working at McDonald's?

If a former McDonald's worker hated working at McDonald's, how would they feel about working at Burger King?

Food made how it looks on TV? I refuse to believe this is true. Absolutely no way. If you post pictures showing a delicious whopper with cheese that looks anything like an advertisement, I may have to move there.

Can't recommend moving here because it's semi HCOL area. But next time I order from BK I will take photos. It might be a bit because I rarely get fast food or takeout now. I'll see if anyone on yelp or Google has a photo tho

Also in a HCOL area, whopper with cheese, large fries, large soda = $15.65 with tax. I'm mostly joking about moving there but I've always joked about the "what you see is not what you get" trope I've experienced for years with fast food. It would be very interesting to see one these days that is even reasonably close.

You got me there as I think with the added cheese it's around $14.50. But use the coupons! I almost only use the coupons because I can feed both of us for the same price as one. BK Coupon Prices Curious if you get the same prices on your mailers

Burger King has less staffing so you will juggle multiple responsibilities

There's one Burger King near me that only has one woman operating the entire restaurant on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights. I have never in my life seen a woman that large move that fast and work that hard. When she started at that location she was gargantuan, but by working there she seems to have lost a lot of weight which makes me happy for her.

Before Covid you were t allowed to open a store with only 1 employee. If corporate did their audit (unannounced) and there was only 1 employee it was an auto fail. I retired in 2021 and things have changed

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED working at Burger King in the 90s (yeah, I'm almost 50 now). We had the best coworkers and had SO MUCH FUN while making food and waiting on customers!

That is not sarcasm - we did our jobs, but oh my goodness, we told so many jokes and laughed so much! It didn't even matter if we were shorthanded or getting slammed, we always had a good time. I had the best coworkers and really miss those days.

What did you hate?

I have a buddy who worked at McDonald’s and then Wendy’s. He said the biggest difference was the amount of customers. You still get lunch rush but it’s not even close to the same level at McDonald’s. Less stressful environment too because there’s less people working at once and you can actually catch your breath.

Eventually, yes. They’re all the same
