Job at McDonalds Help!!!!!!!!?

I know I'm not the norm. Gonna be 33 this year, still living with the rents economy is pretty bad and not read to make the plunge, however I got the whole basement to myself and my curfew isn't till 1 AM :). I am wanting that new iphone and I need money parents said they won't pay for upgrade from 5s. Would McDonalds hire me if I only needed like a month or two of work to get my new phone? Thanks a bunch!!!!

    They expect you'll quit quickly, but NEVER TELL THEM THAT. Pretend that you seek upwards mobility (ex. manager, corporate, even slowly to fryer), and that is a selling point. It's a given that fast food has 100% turnover.

    Plus, you know that you are supposed to put in 2 weeks when you quit. Plus, why can't you just keep working there? They'll slash your hours anyway, usually from 15-20 hrs to 8-10 for part time. Full-time is non-existent in that field except if you have been working there for 2+ years. You are considered a rock star if you complete that many years, for most people scram. Good luck!

    No I recently worked at a mcdonalds. And they look to hire long term. My orientation for the job was in the town over and they said the same thing.

    No they aren't going to hire an unemployed worthless and lazy 33 year old adult male who still lives at home, calls his parents "rents", isn't ready to "make the plunge " into adulthood (WTF are you waiting for?) and has a set curfew.

    Living in your parents basement at 33. You may as well be sentenced to life in prison because you'll NEVER break out of this hopeless situation. I bet you don't even drive a car.

    I applaud your courage sir! You should ask to be made the Assistant Manager as soon as you are hired. That way you will have plenty of money to get that new Phone! No need to thank me. Just becoming a manager is enough thanks. Tell them you are a fan of the "Monster Mac" and you are a sure in to Management!

    Monster Mac is a real sandwich, don't forget to mention it in your interview!

    Eddy, you really need to stop all this. I am going to start to report you to Yahoo for your stupid made up stories. You are not 32, you do not live in a basement, you are not in need of a cell phone, and you are not interested in working at Mc Donalds.

    Now, go back to your stockboy job and let your mom have her computer back.

    Go to community college, learn something, and get a real job. But yes, Mcdonalds will hire, just don't say you will quit.

    I wouldnt tell them that you only wantes to work for a couple months. Work full time til you have the money then quit... but maybe you need to look into gettinng a permanent job
