McDonald's to Employees: Low on Cash? Sell Your Stuff and Eat Less

Under "Tightening Your Belt," the company writes: You may also want to consider returning some of your unopened purchases that may not seem appealing as they did. Selling some of your unwanted possessions on eBay or Craigslist could bring in some quick cash.
And here are a few other "helpful tips" from the world's largest restaurant chain:


Eat less: "Breaking food into pieces often results in eating less and still feeling full."

Work less: "At least two vacations a year can cut heart attack risk by 50%."

Complain less: "Stress hormone levels rise by 15% after ten minutes of complaining."

Sing more: "Singing along to your favorite songs can lower your blood pressure."

This justifies my decision of 25-30 years ago was correct. I have not shopped at WalMart nor eaten at McDonald's for tons of years because of their business practices even back in those days.

Why would I want to spend money at either business when I know how they treat their employees? There is nothing right about either. Shame on them!
