Yes u should keep it.
You can't run from something just because it hurt you. You have to face it head on and get better! It's a life experiance and TRUST ME.. the same thing happens to EVERYTHING. We all don't know what to do when we first get a job but you learn!. Quitting will only push u back and make you think if youre not happy then you can quit.
I'm 21 and I do that all the time :/ It SUCKS. I have social anxiety and I really just want to overcome it and Stay with what I'm doing. Yeah theyre all mexicans.. but its your first job xD! So thats youre excuse :3. If you wanna try a higher more sophisticated job.. try like a Coffee shop or something. But Don't be a quitter.. trust me.

You should stay at the job and give it sometime, it's your first day on the job and you will make mistakes on the first day on the job. You will learn in those mistakes and that after a weeks or two you will get the hang of what you are doing. I would say when you go to work again next time, be ready to learn, smile, and be happy and also proud of yourself. Be confident and don't let nobody upset you, because those co workers that you work had a first day on the job making mistakes. If you want to find a new job, stay at McDonald's unitl you find a new job. I hope this helps, good luck on the job, and remember to smile.

I think you should hang in there for a little while. Just give it a couple weeks to see how it goes, you've only been working since yesterday. If nothing changes after 2 weeks, then I'd say it isn't worth it anymore. And besides, $7.25 is minimum wage, so it's not like you'd be losing a wonderful salary. Whatever you decide, it'll work out in the end.
Good luck! :)

Yes, McDonald's is a good company to work for I've heard. There are a lot of opportunities to work your way up if you stick with it.. plus, as you probably know, jobs are not too easy to find these days. Just give it some time and see what happens. Once you get used to it I'm sure it will be so much better and you will be glad you stayed.

Keep the job while you look for something else. There is nothing better than your own money (even if it is only 7.25/hr) Fast food jobs tend to have a high turnover rate so just look at another fast food place, or maybe a movie theater. Good Luck!

Yes, keep your job... It's your first day on the job, people are going to be a little harsh... But after a while your probably going to be closer with the workers there and maybe things will get better...

Complain to the HQ about what is happening. They should have told you how to run things exactly, and should at least offer you help. If you are being ridiculed there, that's extremely rude and uncalled for. I definitely recommend you report this to the McDonald's HQ because they will see to the problem and immediately notify your boss.

Keep the job for the experience and, if you are from my area of the country, keep the job out of necessity. This might be a snotty thing to say, but remember this. Ten years from now you will be a college graduate and they will still be slinging fries.

First days on a new job are all about learning. Stay with it. Give it at least a month.
