So if working at McDonald's is now a form of punishment... What's that saying about the job itself even if you are being paid?

At what point can you be paid a low enough wage to where you're essentially working at McDonald's as a punishment for existing? Very weird standard their setting with this decision...

The whole term "minimum wage" sort of means "you know we'd give you even less and treat you even worse, but we'd get into trouble"

Not to mention, do you really want to eat somewhere where the food is prepared by people with a grudge? Because let me tell you, if I was forced to work anywhere for free, I'd do my best to botch the job six ways to Sunday.

Ya this is like the Nazis using forced labour for wartime factories. Sabotage is inevitable

Reminds me of "Arbeit macht frei" (work will set you free). -.-
