McDonald's employee website it which has
recently said the following things you should get food stamps
and medicated to supplement the incredibly low wages that we pay
you should not eat fast food for health reasons
has now been shut down this this story is getting weirder and weirder
NBC news dot com reports that mcdonald's is suggesting that their employees not
eat McDonalds food they say but this is called
the this is the McDonalds employee website it's like a back-end web site
with different tips for their employees and it says fast foods are quick
reasonably priced and readily available alternatives to home cooking
well convenient and economical for a busy lifestyle
fast foods are typically high in calories fat saturated fat sugar salt
and they put you at risk of becoming overweight and it says that
cheeseburgers and fries that look
remarkably like those served at McDonalds
are unhealthy choices make donald was asked about this they were not really
clear about it they said that the information was placed there by a third
party vendor that runs their
employees website needless to say
they're shutting the whole thing down the list it's all done they have said
that they closed it down
because it was a %uh though the way they put it is that
they need to reevaluate it and that the vendor
with asked to take it down there were links to
irrelevant and outdated information along with the problem other
organizations I guess that would include
journalists taking some of the elements out of context
and that this wasn't helping their team members this is so funny to me Lewis
burst the McDonalds website the McDonald's employee website
gives information that confirms so many of the critiques about McDonald's that
in spite of their claims that their this big self sufficient business that
doesn't need anybody's help
they heavily rely on government subsidies and benefits for their
employees who earn
such minimum wages and then they're actually recommending to their own
employees that they not really eat very much fast food
this is just going from bad to worse for mcdonnell it's all such a big joke
arm you know iight you think that everyone knows this already
of course are the only people that are saying McDonald's is is healthier good
arm
McDonald spokespeople right yeah I so I
this reminds me of coca-cola I saw a documentary about coke
and as a branding thing they don't refer to their food their their drinks as soda
they call them sparkle in beverages the wordsmith thing is just amazing and
McDonald does the same thing may talk about how
hey there are plenty of fruits and vegetables in our stores etcetera
etcetera
so i think is good for McDonald's employees that the website is gone
in the sense that raw love the honest things that inadvertently slipped on
their
there was a lot of nonsense on there too and hopefully now go get there there
