  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.

No way. Don't believe this. Worked for 5 years at a busy McDonald's. There is NO WAY an entire bag of nuggets would just be ready somewhere. We kept two trays going, each one had about 20 nuggets or so in it max. If this was lunch rush they might have 40 nuggets up at once, but then they were so busy they just dumped them all here.

If it was down time they may be a few available, like 10-20 getting old they need to get rid of anyway. Fine. That's plausible.

Even end of day you don't have a bag of nuggets of waste. Of you did your supervisor would be pissed at you for mismanaging your rotation so poorly over the day.

Zero way this is real. Dude clearly dumped a few on top of a full bag to get internet clout.

ahh but you missed the part where the totally-real guy said he was giving free shit away like crazy, and thus he was making extra specifically to do this

That's true, the totally real guy did go to the back, make 5-6 bags of nuggets in the 4 fryers which take about 5 mins each, and no one else who worked there stopped him or called him out on it.

Like seriously, unless it was a supervisor/manager (unlikely), they would have just been kicked out of the store.
