   $15 an hour for what?

   Rewarding those who are lazy and inept for an entry level/part time job is ridiculous. Rewarding those who can't even get a simple pre-made food order correct is beyond ridiculous. Well they have all three of those types here and then some. I can't call McDonald's employees "burger flippers" since there would have to be a grill to flip burgers on in the first place – so maybe…button pushers?

   Anyway.

   So it was that time of the year again where I decided to punish my stomach and intestines, so I came here after the breakfast menu. The breakfast for McDonald's is one of the only things they do correctly and they should really leave the option open for the entire day – but I guess their soon to be making $15 an hour for doing barely $5 an hour work is too much for them.

   The breakfast time service here is blah. They're slow and seem to care more about the drive thru than people standing at the counter just waiting for a sign of life from an employee here. The breakfast itself is ok and if you know McDonald's breakfast, you should know what to expect.

   During the rest of the day, it's worse than blah here. If you come in here between noon and 2, it's a madhouse with not enough room for people to wait in the slow line. I've never been in here other than 6am or about 1pm, so I have no idea how the rest of the day goes.

   Just going in today to give myself a stomach ache for later, I noticed two registers open and a bunch of talkative employees in the back dressing up the "burgers" and pushing their buttons. One swept so slow that I thought I was watching her on tape with the slow button pushed. But she gabbed a mile a minute to her coworkers however.

   I ordered a simple sirloin burger, fries, and a drink. The sirloin burgers are just another in line of false McDonald's advertizing and burgers that look and taste nothing like the commercials or the posters. I ordered the bacon and cheese version of this because I really didn't want one of their usual burgers. I ordered take out since I refuse to sit in that zoo of a location. Sounds simple enough, right?

   Well there was no bacon in my burger. None of the tabs were pulled and the cashier I guess it was too much for her to check. I guess it was too much for the soon to be $15 an hour employees to pull a tab of a "burger" they just dressed as well. I was able to eat it, though it wasn't what I paid for. The fries bordered on microwave quality. Usually McDonald's is on point with their fries – I mean they're known for their great fries. I just can't understand how employees apparently worth $15 an hour are able to actually mess up fries. But yeah, they tasted off. I expect their "burgers" to taste off, but their fries are usually dependable – but sadly they can't even do that one right anymore.

   If you want ketchup, do not leave until you check the bag yourself. Even if you tell them multiple times about ketchup, they have a problem remembering that minor detail.

   The parking lot is messy and busy. They need to repave it. Cars come in and out of here a lot and some of them are fast.

   So all in all, it's McDonald's. Like just about every McDonald's out there, this one has employees not worth $15 an hour who can't even get simplicity correct. Then again, most McDonald's have that problem anyway. But be warned, this location is pretty bad. Their excuse for food is what it is. Don't come here expecting a cuisine – it's simple fast food that's just not good for you aside from an occasional guilty pleasure. If you come here, expect even their excuse for food to be even more sub-par than usual except for the breakfast which isn't terrible.

   I only come to McDonald's once to maybe twice a year. I'll probably make sure it's only once from now on and I'll make sure it's never when it pertains to this location………even for breakfast.
