<p>i second city gal. I mean cmon how many other spoiled kids aiming for ivies work at mcdonalds it puts you in another whole category!!!</p>
<p>hamburger university anyone??</p>
<p>McDonalds has a scholarship for their employees and one girl that received it is going to Yale?</p>
<p>Yeah, not many places give jobs to 15 year olds.</p>
<p>A job is a job. If you don't think it's good enough for you than don't take it. There are others who will take the job. I will, for example. There's nothing wrong with putting some money in my pockets and earning valuable work experience.</p>
<p>it must suck working there lol</p>
<p>There's nothing wrong with working at Mcdonald's. It's not likely to help you get into a good school, but it's not likely to keep you from it either. I had my first fast-food job at Mcdonald's at 17...
I know someone who worked at Mcdonald's all throughout his undergrad years as a psychology major. He went on to grad school, got his Ph.D. in psychology, and even did post-doc work. </p>
<p>Occasionally, even people well out of their teens resort to working in fast-food, though usually just on a temporary basis. I ran into someone who was applying at a small restaurant for a little bit of extra work. She already had a Master's degree in ecology and was doing a Ph.D.</p>
