This is more than a training video. This is truly defining for the horror/thriller genre. The many influences of Stanley Kubrick's The Shining as well eerie, Stephen King-esque tones are quite apparent and help truly elevate this short film to another level. The protagonist, Chris, is intentionally created to be an every-man, meant to represent the average American just trying to get by in a new town he is unfamiliar with. This helps make things more immersive and lets us truly feel the horror, as we are able to visualize ourselves in this hellish environment. The side characters, from the very beginning, just seem off and you aren't quite sure why. But this mystery slowly unravels in the form of Jennifer - the tutor for our every-man protagonist, Chris. She acts as a form of exposition for the backstory of this quiet little town, an even more so for the cult that is controlling it. We only hear brief mentions of McC - just enough to catch our attention and wonder exactly who this person is, or what they represent. As time goes on, it becomes clear that something is very wrong in this town. The eatery is shown to have unrealistic expectations for cleanliness, and the mentions of McC get even more existential and spiritual at this point. This subconsciously makes us fear for Chris' life, as we wonder if he'll even be able to keep up with these expectations, and, if not, what the gruesome consequences may be if he fails. This fear and anxiety slowly unravels into a distorted panic as we soon find out that McC is followed by everyone in this town - there is no escaping McC. And even more brilliantly - McC is never physically shown once in this short film. Fear of the unknown and ambiguity drive this horror masterpiece. The final scene, however, is the most telling of the brilliance of this short film. Much to our horror and dismay, this protagonist... this... 'every-man' that we've been rooting for this entire time to make it out alive and to resist this horrific cult's pull, grows to meet Jennifer's expectations... and the last few lines show the horrific implications that make this film a masterpiece. "I think we're going to like it here." Then, Jennifer asks for confirmation - she's almost certain she has him hooked in, but must make sure. She asks, "We?" Then, Chris says a line that sends a chill up my pine each time I hear it... "Me and McC." Chris is waltzed into the underbelly of the cult, likely only to become a sacrifice or a servant to McC for eternity, his soul begging for a way out.
Somehow I KNEW this would be here. I stole the VHS tape of the "McC" episode from my McJob back in the 80's because it was an instant cult classic among me and my friends working there. The joy at which Chris attacks the filth of his job and the voices inside his head telling him to push even harder made it a frequent break room screening classic. It helped that we were all stoned at the time. To this day I cannot clean something without saying "Make it shine guy!"
I saw one when I worked at McDonald's that showed an employee receiving baloons for cleaning the restroom. The next time after I cleaned the restroom I asked the owner where my baloons were.
I worked at a McDonalds once in high school. I'll never forget my first day, the manager had me go through the garbage and count all the half eaten big macs.
@@wildgrinder123 Portion right-sizing analytical data collection. There are differently sized Big Macs, and there's no reason to spend unnecessary money giving customers more than they will eat. Don't forget, a "half gallon" of ice cream is no longer a half gallon, and a "pound" of butter is not longer a poune, etc.
FUNNIEST VIDEO EVER!! THIS IS A MASTERPIECE WITH THE ADDITIONS OF THE VOICEOVERS!!!!! I WORK AT MCD AND THIS IS THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY DAY!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
First day on the job, Chris is nervous and unsure. Two weeks later, he's cleaning the shake machine with a toilet brush from the restroom. Wait! Never mind! The shake machine never works!
I had a friend back in the 90s who was a McDonald's custodian . He took a dump in one of the fake potted plants the day before he quit . He didn't see McC that day , apparently.
0:35 Life tip. Never shake the hand of a custodian. 3:32 The moment you express your distaste of dirty restrooms and realize it’s YOUR job to do it! Jesus, this makes enlisting in the Army look good. I wonder how many new-hires went home after their orientations and just ended it.
I'm a veteran of cleaning toilets (and poop in the urinal... twice) at McDonald's, and I have to say... It makes me wonder if people live in their own filth, if they're going to show zero mercy in them bathrooms.
LMAO!!!!! The funniest part is when he starts hearing the voices!!!!!!!! And YEAH RIGHT he's so enthusiastic to clean the bathroom. Oh man, this video is HILARIOUS! "I even shined the pipes, Jennifer!"...
I was a cook at McDonald's in high school 87-88. I hated slow weeknights in the summer because I would have to clean the bathroom. Many pubic hairs were fished out of urinals, lol.
My first "real job" was at a Taco Bell. There was no employee with just custodial duties. Everyone chipped in with cleaning the joint. Some customers were just plain nasty. On more than one occasion customers physically threw their food right at me, while I was at the front counter. In the parking lot, customers would just throw their garbage right out their car windows. If an employee was around, they'll make sure you see them as they toss their garbage out. As for the restrooms, customers would intentionally clogged the toilets. Several times customers would tear the flush valves right out of the toilet tanks. The bathrooms would then need to be locked until a plumber arrived.
“There was liquid s£&t on the ceiling, the toilet was block with tampons, and there’s blood everywhere cause a teenager was taking acid in there and punched the mirrors to “get rid of the copies of him”. That’s McDonalds Clean.
"McDonald's Clean" the last time I went in a McDonald's toilet I saw that someone shit in the middle of the floor. they didn't even try for the toilet...
Reminds me of a visit to an A&W a few years ago. Only went in to take a P & wash my hands before eating. I open the door to be met with a super strong smell of -Turd- like bring tears to your eyes strength! look down in the Urinal to see that the last guy before me had dropped in a super-size Log.... I was a Custodian in the past in a Restaurant & know how it sucks to clean up after idiots like that. Seriously, ..I used to wonder how ppl could "get poo, that high up the wall" ....
I was really hoping to find more info on how to clean period blood, racial slurs written with a Sharpie and wall boogers....but no such luck here. At least the music was snappy.
I used to do maintenance at mcds for a little bit and I got trained by an old ass man and wasn’t able to watch this masterpiece Edit: Also, I’m not why he was so excited to clean the bathrooms. Both the men’s and women’s restrooms were utterly disgusting every night
"Before we get started, Chris, do you have any questions?" "Yeah. What the fuck did I do wrong in life to be an adult starting a new job as a McDonald's janitor??"
Was the laugh track added? When I started at McD's in 1987 the videos were just as bad, but no laugh track. This is classic shi*t. Thanks for posting. I have to go find Mc C, now!
Hey Chris, how bout you and McC go and clean up the stalls and urinals after that angry family got charged extra for sauces and purposely just "let loose" everything they had in their bowels on the floor after a 6 hour non-stop car ride? Thnx
Three days later the voices told Chris to come to work with an AK-47.
😳
Exactly!!
Theres clean, then theres minimum wage clean...
oh boy now thats mcdonalds clean
good job
Subscribe For no reason 14 an hour
Come on we got a floor to mop
NAIL ON THE HEAD!
Jennifer showed him McC back at her apartment later that evening.
a piece of her rotten MC Cunt to him and the MC CLAP.
🤣🤣
and he gave her that McD
She saw Mc C's D 😂😂
Next is McMaury proclaiming, "You are NOT the father!"
lol i thought for a second that "what an asshole" was actually in the original video. would be amazing.
That's what I thought haha I was so confused
I did too! LOL!!! Nearly had a stroke laughing at that!

How the hell did you come up with all this!?
Perfectly worded in depth review! Is that you Quentin 🤔
Maybe dial back the Adderall just a touch man
@@ilovebrandnewcarpetsAdder-all in
and he still works there to this day......
How about now?
O I L he cleaned up after the Epstein suicide
Thanks to McC, I never have to take my messy 3 jalapeno McDouble McShit on a dirty McToilet.
"What's Next"
*with a Smiling Face* "Garbage!"
The commentary in the background made this even funnier

How are you from 16 years ago? I hope you've seen McC!
I saw one when I worked at McDonald's that showed an employee receiving baloons for cleaning the restroom. The next time after I cleaned the restroom I asked the owner where my baloons were.
😂😂❤
"I'm sorry, *WE* don't do things half way, period."
Some Guy in the audience(?): QUIT SUCKING UP!
They took the price of that coffee they offered him out of his paycheck
I was thinking the same.
I worked at a McDonalds once in high school. I'll never forget my first day, the manager had me go through the garbage and count all the half eaten big macs.
🤣🤣🤣
Wait! Why though?

@@rabokarabekian409 wtf damn they are really pinch pennies that tight
@@acerowoodberry1236 You betcha. Wasted food is hand counted every few hours.
It was being shown at a found footage festival. The laughing was people in the audience laughing while watching the video.
That explains a lot, thank you person from 7 years ago
OHHHHHHH i was wondering what the weird giggle-track was
I just saw it at found footage festival a couple of days ago. It’s cool they’ve been using it for so long 🙂
if McDonalds is so clean how come every time I step in there it looks like a homeless shelter
Brandon Azure
I love this comment.
Because white people no longer work there, or own them.
Brandon Azure you didn't see McC
thats false and you did that like white people are just the cleanest people
Brandon Azure we no longer have a janitor.
They have the golden arches, we have the golden arcs.
"I even shinned the pipes Jennifer"....hehe
Later Jennifer shined his pipes
'your sweeping to fast' LOL, can't win
*you’re
*too
"Oh hi Chris"
"Ohai Mark"
FUNNIEST VIDEO EVER!! THIS IS A MASTERPIECE WITH THE ADDITIONS OF THE VOICEOVERS!!!!! I WORK AT MCD AND THIS IS THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY DAY!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
“So what’s your sense of humor like??”
Me: 4:58
if the mcfloors get mcdirty, you'll be mcfired!
5:08 - 5:11 I would've said"Fuck that! I'm not washing no damn asphalt for minimum wage! Mc C can go McScrew himself! I'm out!"
First day on the job, Chris is nervous and unsure. Two weeks later, he's cleaning the shake machine with a toilet brush from the restroom. Wait! Never mind! The shake machine never works!
I'm sure anyone who has to watch THIS training video just let's out a sigh and asks themselves "What have I gotten myself into....."
Jay S what have I gotten myself into. I'm just working to kill time for the Navy to approve my medical papers
I watched this 32 years ago in 1988.
I had a friend back in the 90s who was a McDonald's custodian .
He took a dump in one of the fake potted plants the day before he quit . He didn't see McC that day , apparently.
"thats the first time anyones told him that" lmao 4:50
well whats next. garbage
This is gold...pure gold. The wow at 1:35 had me in tears
If you take your job this seriously, you need to find friends..
😂😂😂😂😂😂
McC is your friend, you don't need anyone else.
Man, I learned so much. I'm gonna get started on those bathrooms!
when he polishes the bathroom mirror he sees redrum backwards and a dead old lady climbs out of the toilet.
0:35 Life tip. Never shake the hand of a custodian.

MC C will show everyone his Mc D through the window
"Is it clean enough" 😂😂
I love this video. I can't get enough of the music in the beginning.
Opening music is "Halftime" from the Network Music production music library.
Alright! I'm ready to clean up puke now! Let's GO!
"Well what's next?"
_"Garbage"_
**Laughter in the background**
LMAO!!!!! The funniest part is when he starts hearing the voices!!!!!!!! And YEAH RIGHT he's so enthusiastic to clean the bathroom. Oh man, this video is HILARIOUS!
"I even shined the pipes, Jennifer!"...
Did he just call him an asshole? 0:42
that's what i heard too!
It's funny anyways.
I was a cook at McDonald's in high school 87-88. I hated slow weeknights in the summer because I would have to clean the bathroom. Many pubic hairs were fished out of urinals, lol.
Why is there a random "WOO!" at 1:42 lmfao
0:35 "What an asshole" 😂😂😂
Never been so dedicated doing shit shifts for 3.10 an hour
...Chris has made some poor choices in life.
🤣
Excuse me? 😅

McC is in all of us. It really is.
See the comment below.
Make it shine, guy!
Care for a cup of coffee? HAHA that was a trick! Janitors don't get coffee!
Sean, why do you got me watching these weird ass videos at 1 in the morning?
All hail the great entity, Mc.C!!!! I SEE HIM, I SEE HIM!!!
For some odd reason, I ended up finding the plot twist genuinely satisfying.
What. The. Hell.
The commentary in the background elevates to a whole new plane of comedy.
"It's your job to make sure this McDonald's restaurant is the *cleanest* place in town!"
1:33 "My life has meaning now."
Make it shine guy... Make it shine
If you don’t McC will drown you in the fryer
This ain't no heckin' Jennifer! This here is young Frances McDormand innit??
scrubbing toilets this week, brownnosing, manager next week, and fired 2 days later. shit happens.
Imagine sitting there watching this and being excited
Chris is the type of guy to have bodies in freezers in his basement
"McDonald's Clean" the last time I went in a McDonald's toilet I saw that someone shit in the middle of the floor. they didn't even try for the toilet...

Does anyone know the name of the actor who played "Chris"? I want to see what he looks like today. He was really cute here. 😁😉😅
this is amazing! thanks for posting this... :)
"The former McC had to be Corrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrected..."
The music in this video totally cracks me up.
And FU*K that window! Am i the only one who heard that towards the end?
Jennifer, “Chris, the junkies, homeless, & hookers are fond of our McClean restrooms. Make them feel welcome!”
Buff that window brah!
"Before we get started, Chris, do you have any questions?" "Yeah. What the fuck did I do wrong in life to be an adult starting a new job as a McDonald's janitor??"
I remember watching this video back in my burger flipping days.
"Care for a cup of coffee? That'll be 85 cents. :)"
FilthyCasual “this coffee and moment has been noted and deducted from your Mcpaycheck!”
Who the hell shows this much enthusiasm to do such menial work!?!
Jesus
People of integrity
Meth addicts?
People who’s other option is food banks
I worked at Mcds before that video..and it was like that even more! But the social scene made up for it! Mc C was easy and plentiful! Great times!
At 4:45 did he just tell Jennifer he was going to "Fuck that window"?
I'm a real life janitor and can say I've seen The McC! ✨✨✨ Make it shine, guy!
Was the laugh track added? When I started at McD's in 1987 the videos were just as bad, but no laugh track. This is classic shi*t. Thanks for posting.

Spot clean, make it perfect and Fuck dat window ?!?!
Jesus, this was terrifying...
McDonald clean...yeah that certainly is a level of cleanliness. The one below "roadside shithouse"
when i worked at wendys id make tripple chese burgers for my self and say i had to take a shit and eat them in the toilet. did that many times
Bruh, you seeing Mc C in the bathroom...all kinds of shadiness
4:56
There ya go
Garbage.
Does anyone know the actors in this?
I should do that...walk into a McD's bathroom and scream "WOW! LOOK HOW CLEAN IT IS!" just to freak them out.
It’s been 10 years have you done it yet?
@@komi-sanmustbeprotected5665 Yes
Notice how the bathroom doesn't have piss all over the walls and shit on the floor, smeared on the walls as graffiti and in the sink.
Maybe because it’s a hmmm idk a TRAINING VIDEO. Your ass better be alive to respond back.
Next they show how they purge the Homeless who camp out in the booths and behind the Playplace.
What's next?
GARBAGE!
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
Whats with the voices in the background?
- So, what's next?
- * delighted face* GARBAGE!!
Man's gotta brace himself and mentally prepare for what the day holds for him...
I have never seen a custodial worker at a McDonalds !! The ones I always go to are dirty, the tables are always dirty.
This video is at least 35 years old. Nobody cares about cleanliness today
i was in McDonalds last night and it had a a piece of poop on the bathroom floor
and to this day, at the age of 80 he still hasnt seen the mc c, but he keeps cleaning anyways
I bet he doesn't last a week working there
Why is his name Chris this always happens
