The person who is working on fries deserves an award. Nowadays, McDonald’s don’t fill up the fries properly, but this worker knows how to get the job done. Very good job 👍
When know they are being watched they do a better job. SOme of them fries that fell out as he set them on the staging area were not cool. Thats lost food for the customer.
If you watch this for 5 hours on repeat you get an idea of what it is like to work in fast food... Respect to you guys, I had one shift and that was enough
The fry dispenser is really cool, never thought something like that existed. When I worked fast food we just had bags we would pour straight into the basket.
That machine is called frankie, we usually keep it on during busy hours but then thaw it out in the evening due to low demand which is when we pour chips into the fryers by hand
Worked at a Hungarian branch of Burger King, we had a roughly same fry dispenser which we were calling Sindbad. We were only pouring fries from bags when it was a low traffic day or near closing time as it needed to be cleared. Cleaning those dispensers are not an easy task! :D
It's prob just a matter of how updated your specific restaurant is. Where I work, we still have the old setup with just bags you pour into the basket and then lower down. Some other locations have fewer things, like shakes you have to mix by hand and such.
At my location they started making us weigh them because people were filling them all the way instead of givin yall a fist's worth of empty space at the top 😭 i hate fast food management with my whole heart
Much respect to you for the job you do. You actually seem to care about the product you put out. Tonight at my local McDonald’s there were only three people working and they still got me in and out the drive thru fast.
I was thinking the same thing. Taco Bell has invented some crazy kitchen gadgets as well. I wish I could link you but I can't remember what documentary I saw it on.
I love these videos. They help take away the stigma of working in fast food. There shouldn’t be one. It’s fast paced and demanding and it’s to be commended. Of course it’s not brain surgery but most jobs aren’t, let’s be real.
Honestly if it paid a lot better (like it should!) I'd do it. Ngl I have a bunch of the recipes memorized from these already lmao I don't really like dealin with customers so much but grill/line stuff seems pretty chill as long as you keep your cool and remember everything.
@@miyakogfl To be fair, at least over here in the UK, we get paid a good amount, we're on £8 an hour for 16-17 year olds, £9.75 an hour for 18 year olds and I think 11.50 for 21+. Plus overtime and overnight shifts give you an extra £1.50 per hour so it is really a steal over here
Aww yes. Working a fine dining bartender job seasonal and picked up a job at White Castle… man it’s tough and got my but kicked first few days. Even with bartender experience. Hats off to you fast food workers

They don't let you be this generous, that's the one thing I see wrong with this, it's that if they saw me doing that, which I did, they would dump them back and ask to put in less fries
@@daveb2280 He’s been making these videos since before he was a franchise owner lol. And either way, the fact that the owner is in there on fries is enough for me to respect him. All the owners I’ve worked under stay in their office.
I worked the fry station in 1991-93. It was ten times harder then. You had to fill each fry basket manually, and then we had like 6 carts full of them with 24 baskets on each cart that we used to wheel into the freezer. It was such a manually intensive job!!! I was only 14 years old and in shape and it was exhausting. It’s amazing how much easier it is today with the fry loader. Also, the fry bags were a brown paper rectangular box that we had to open. 😮
I did it too ... without the dumb 24 basket carts filling the fries manually one basket at a time was never a problem if you timed it right ! & We had those Fry boxes too ! Respect ! For my Fry Station Alumni !!! Now let's filter that grease 💪
Great, now I want McDonald's fries so bad I'm going nuts. I swear McDonald's should sponsor your channel just from how much business you've probably brought them with your transparency and great food-handling practices. Keep up the good work and thanks to you and all your employees for doing what you do!
@@TonicofSonic Lol I know what you mean, that can happen. My local McD's is all hard-working older Hispanic ladies and they absolutely crush it, though. Been going there for years and they're always super kind!
Literally hasn't changed in 10 years. Idk why it would have but it's crazy seeing my job from 2010 and absolutely nothing being different about it, the boxes, the freezer, the fryers, the fry station, the scooper, nothing changed. Went through a lot of shit staring at that bright ass fry station.
I used to worked at McD's and the fries line is the hardest. You have to move non stop and be so fast to have the fries ready to be picked for the customers. So much respect for this guy.
I worked there in the days we still had the sandwich racks with premade burgers on them. I gained like 30lbs in the year I worked there because we could eat whatever was left in the racks at close, lol.
im currently working at maccies and im always on fries, id probably say it is the hardest station but not by that much, being on the actual food prep line is also hard but atleast the work load is spread across 3-4 people
I got told that it was the easiest when I started working there, and all of the workers who were too slow got jeered at because it was "easy". I believed it until I went on fry duty during rush hour, at a McDonalds station next to a central motorway. Was a bit of a rude awakening
I remember when I was a little kid, when I was at a McDonald’s and my mom just took our order, I looked around and could see the people working in the back. There was a young man working on the fries like in the video. I remember being in awe of how fast they were working. This video just reminded me of that memory.
Oh yes, the Golden Fries of McDonalds. That stuff is pure salt and potato all wrapped nicely for you and everyone. Such good fries overall, never disappoints.
@Pilotman Why dont you ask for fresh fries? It scares me that the common person does not ask for fresh food when they go to these " Fast food "places. Many years ago I ate from fast food places, and I always asked for fresh food. Then I go and put my eyes on the assemblers hands to see what he is doing. They used to always make the food correctly. I cook at home now, its better.
I love how precise everything is from how products are packaged, the specifically designed food handling utensils, and cooking process. By the way, hot fries right out of the fryer is a nice way to end a long commute home!
@@Rogar555 idk in germany mostly they seem honestly fine most of the time, some are undercooked and some are oversalted or undersalted but they still have nice consistency imo
This brings back memories for me. I was 27. I just got my first apartment after struggling with alcoholism for a very long time. I was happy to have this job, very thankful because it paid for my bills. I lived alone with my cat, in a nice little one bedroom in Gillette Wyoming. Walked to and from work. Mainly had me on fries because I was quick and filled them right. Those were some of the most peaceful days of my life... I miss them.
nowadays i doubt that the pay rate would be able to sustain even that way of life anymore at least in my area but its always been kinda pricey around here
@@Jimimar360 same guy who has 5 ways to kill justin beiber as a video. Why watch to hate? Funy and wierd asf, have a good night. Obviously you needed to hear that from someone.
As a person who has fry duty at Arby's, I commend you on how full you make the cartons. I try to do that and my managers always say "just let the fries fall in, dont try to force them" but if I don't, the customer doesn't get what they're paying for. I'm also reeeaaaally jealous of the automatic basket filler :/
Honestly prefer them not loaded all the way... they're preventing me from being a fat fuck LOL. Besides, if you're a normal human being, those fries at the end are cold anyways by the time you get to them.
11:00PM: My shift ends 11:20PM: I get back home and my fridge is empty. 11:25PM: I start watching your videos. 01:00AM: I’m at McDonald’s drive thru Great marketing 👍🏻
idk why but these videos make me much less stressed out and are actually mesmerizing. keep up the great work, it's so nice seeing and hearing someone so passionate about what they do.
Never have I ever seen McDonald's fries packed that generously in my entire life. Either I've been getting ripped off by McDonald's, or this is false advertising. Fries should be fully packed this way!
It’s a franchise owner who usually watches out how generous or how stingy a carton needs to be filled. It’s used to be quite generous like this 20 years ago. I think now they are becoming quite stingy with the volume for the same or more expensive price everywhere. There’s also this typical greedy corporation in HQ side that decides how big the carton is supposed to be as well. Lol.
I worked at McDonalds all through high school (2000-2004). Watching your videos ensures me that I could go back there and not need to be trained 😂 was a great first job for sure.
Haha no worries buddy! It’s 36 years for me!! It was a grill call…. Lay 12 hamburger patties, then when you turn them lay 6 Big Macs (12 Pattie’s again) then keep alternating between 12 and 6 every turn. When it got crazy busy you would go 12/6 continuously lay which meant you had 24 burgers cooking on same side and you just keep putting down more!!! Good times!!
@@ArtieLovesPancakes143 I guess I remember that being called “batch cooking”. Drop 1/4 pound patties first, then reg patties. Reg patties would cook faster and come up first. By the time you seasoned, stacked and put in warmer, the 1/4 pound patties would be coming up.
Watching these is so relaxing, ngl I think I'll prolly fall asleep to these tonight because the amount of background noise and everything is perfect lol
Kind of surprised that one basket of fries only fills a few orders of fries. Then again, compared to my local McDonald's, you were pretty generous in filling those orders pretty full. How many baskets of fries do you have to keep going in the fryer to keep up during peak times?
I don't work at McD's but have a good sense as to how foodservice works. During peak hours, you'll likely see all fryers used in a rotation. You've got high-temp fat being introduced with frozen or even refrigerated product. Fryers, like most equipment, have recovery times. That is to get the base heating unit (in this example - fat or grease) to consistently produce a good product within a certain amount of time. Overload that cooking unit over and over again, and performance goes downward. So that's when you know to open up the 2nd or even 3rd fryers - distribute the breakdown and get better recovery.
@@mil2k11 You can see that even though they weren't busy he was rotating through the fryers as he dropped the baskets. At the start of the video there was a basket in fryer 3, and then he dropped his next two baskets in fryers 1 and 2.
I remember having this job for awhile at wendies, the most underrated part is how hot that tool is, the beds for the fries are heated both from the bottom and a heat lamp, plus fresh fries have the oil so I would come home occasionally with first degree, and sometimes second degree burns on my hands until they calloused over and I stopped feeling the heat lmao. Fry cooks do the grim work silently in the corner.
If you havent had a "Waffle Tatto" you havent worked with fryers long enough yet... and if you don't even know what a "Waffle Tatto" is... just wait!!!! lol.
I mean I wouldn’t doubt some people think they coke pre salted which they don’t but I also work at mcdonald’s and some people be not as bright as you think but still it’s all fun to work there as along as you work with someone you have fun with outside of work 😊
So hypnotizing to watch. Love to see people doing work. Roofing, framing, pressure washing, cutting grass, painting, plumbing, cooking, or on the French fry station. Great videos.
Been working in Fastfood since I was 14 (I’m 23 now) and making fries is probably the chilliest position to be in but the one you sweat the most at 😅 I’ve worked McDonald’s, Burger King, a few street kitchens but currently working at a Swedish Fastfood chain called Max. Probably the best kitchen setup out of McDonalds, BK, Max take the top spot. Menu has healthy and very unhealthy options as well but all the food is really good, varies of course between different restaurants with different suppliers, but for the most part. I’d say for the most part it’s never about the work you do but the people around you that makes the job really fun and enjoyable. Then again… it’s also fun finishing 20 orders within 5-8 minutes (in the kitchen! You’re a real G if you can do that in the register)
If it weren't for the absolute shitshow that presented itself as my management, I would've worked there for a lot longer than one year. It was actually a pretty nice job and the crew were fun to work with. Literally everyone knew each other and we got along with pretty much all of our coworkers.
Nice to see a McDonald’s that fills the fry containers . Large is medium, medium Is small and small is childrens size here in WI as full as they fill them .
Nah dude, mine are always full. I go to the Appleton/Neenah/Oshkosh stores all the time, never had a problem at the Fond du Lac, Green Bay, Waupaca or Stevens point/Plover locations either. Must just be your location. Sucks.
This is my job exactly. God it warms my heart seeing people with the nice comments. Make sure to tell the person serving you thank you. They all work really hard.
Worked at McDonald's for 7 years, two separate McDonald's for that combined 7 years; at the second one which I worked the longest from... a few times during my tenure I would be designated to working on fries only for most of my shift for a few months out of the time. We were a very busy McDonald's gaining anywhere from 800-900 customers in drive thru alone from an 8 hour shift! So doing fries you were always busy from when lunch started till the end of your shift. See this is quite nostalgic lol McDonald's was my first job and the other McDonald's was my second. Currently working at a new grocery chain I've only ever had 3 jobs so far of my 11 years of working.
This needs to be the training video so easy to follow and understand, and how you should be working at McDonalds. I havent worked at McDonalds in over 6 years but this was very good video of a POV. I actually enjoyed my time at McDonalds just wish we had better air flow and air conditions
When you first get them and they’re hot they’re usually good-to-excellent. You basically have to eat them right away because they get cold so quickly. Fries + McDoubles…. Yum
@@cjlaws2341 ive been working for three days so far on closing shift. Theres usually three of us and we ended up staying 30-60 minutes overtime all three days. Yesterday i learned what the grease trap was and why i no longer want to work closing shift
@@Furno52470 oh dude they had me dumping that grease trap non stop and it was always full af when I did it too! I used to get old grease all over my clothes every time I did it, it's super heavy when it's full like that too. Ask them to let you see behind the frappe machine 😂😂 it will be rancid back there most of the time
Props to S Patula for the insanely good camera quality. I don't know why, but this is really satisfying to watch even if the job is by conventional wisdom not something people seek out. I guess the issues surrounding living wages and whatnot don't necessarily mean the job itself would be bad.
You’ve gotta appreciate how they don’t skimp out on the fries or be lazy at 2:26 he could’ve easily left it with one scoop but he did two and put more in
Really happy to see your channel blowing up. I remember watching a couple years ago. You're definitely the only one that gives the perspective of working at McDonald's and I think that's really cool. It brings me back to working there.
Thank you for adding my requested video! I was glad to see that a hopper was used to 'orient' each fry correctly into the frying basket to benefit your "fry yield".
I just watch this when I am bored, and it is pretty interesting to see how you guys make the food. So, keep up the great work and keep makin these videos.
This is exactly the same way it is done here in the UK. we have the same equipment too. the Fry hopper (though the one in my store is two seperate hoppers), same electric vats, same fry scoop, kind of the same fry station (our one is more deeper and twice as long. Same baskets too and also the same AccuSalt (Salt Dispenser)
When I worked at McDonald’s, I worked fried when I first started. I used to pack the fired like this guy cuz I understood what it was like on the receiving side. When my manager saw, she told me to pack ‘em less so “they looked better” 💀
That is what looks better a customer orders fry's they get frys. My manager gave me the same complaint when i worked at McDonald. Same thing when I packed them with too much sauce.
ah man this takes me back, i loved working fries and as well as doing dishes, i was always the go to guy for those 2 jobs and i loved them both, im not a sweating man but when i get that adrenaline going in peak hours i start sweating and doing math in my head on what to expect and what to do making sure every second is spent doing something, man do i love it, good stuff on filling up the fries i always loved filling it to the top feeling, felt like i did a good deed when i did it from all the normal statements about how MCD never fills up fries haha.
My main roles were working the table and doing dishes during closing. I was one of the only ones who'd do it voluntarily, but being able to listen to music while simply washing dishes was too good to pass up. Was the fastest one in my McDonald's. The memories, though definitely not doing that again
@@TrialDubz 10.50, and they even gave me 5-10 hours overtime as a minor giving me roughly 800$ of spending money every 2 weeks, hell, some adults don’t get that kind of spending money
@@amyrmurray9190 haha I feel you, I just genuinely loved doing the dishes and I had to be on dishes since we were understaffed, I could get everything clean in 30 minutes giving me another half hour to clean tables, sweep and mop the lobby.
@@agarion101 30 minutes doing dishes is nothing compared to working at the Costco food court. It takes 2 hours to do dishes when closing. We have to wash some 100 baking sheets, one by one because our sink is too small to fit any more than 1.
Thank you for showing us the future of art majors! This is an important video for people who want to see what the future looks like for people's degrees
Almost on par with those chill lofi hip hop videos out there with how calm and composed these videos can make you feel. Absolute mood for a late night video.
Currently working at McDonald's Australia rn, and the fries I think are the most underappreciated things. Working at this station is alright, but tough work when it's just you. Having to make sure the fry dispensor is always full, getting new fry boxes, actually frying multiple baskets for nearly three minutes during a busy day is an easy way to put a lot of stress and pressure onto you. Ain't a good job, and soon I'll have to do seven hours of fries.
If you don't mind me asking out of curiosity - is there an automatic timer of the fry frier or do people have to manually keep track of time, can you explain it to me how it works?
@@LovelyLittleLillies We have a timer of roughly 2 minutes and 50 seconds on fries, Hash Browns are approximately 2:30. Specifically on the fries, they go on "duty" at 2:25 where we'll need to press a button so it stops beeping then give it a little shake. After that you basically let them be, give em a shake if you want or do something else until the timer goes out. However if you're in a rush, it's fully okay to pull the fries out with 30 seconds left, they're basically done by then.
I am a 16 year old boy and I've worked at McDonalds for a year in the busiest building in Atlantic Canada. I worked fries every shift and trust me it is the most stressful job at McDonalds as you have to do everything by yourself with broken machines while you need 30 orders of fries done. It was a hard job and I have so much respect toward poeple who can deal with it
That fries dispenser looks really useful. I think the only problem with this video is that the chips were not drained long enough. They will go soggy if they still saturated with oil.
@@davidhuang5042 oh yeah most definitely, especially at a place like McDonald’s people have no idea how much food you’ll actually be using and how fast so much can pop Up on the screen because for the most part people can order anything and we have to make it👀.
@@OrNah. California, I work at In N Out, and we make everything to order, minimum 5mins an order. You can make a cheeseburger in 30 seconds at McD. Our In N Out does 35-40 cars in half an hour during lunch, and that’s not super fast.
I went to McDonald's yesterday for the first time in years because of this channel.. This man deserves a promotion at the very least. And after that maybe this man could hook me up with some coupons.
I found the small details, like the fries holder cartoon making a "folding" sound when it was unflattened, really satisfying And its actually kinda crazy just how efficient McDonalds has made its food production. From that very useful fries scooper design to even the salt dispenser.
Yeah honestly, I work at a small food place that's part of a chain of kiosk. Think 7/11 with a proper grill and stuff. I'd kill for the entire food making process to be more streamlined and efficient.
The "tools" they use are generic restaurant equipment. That scoop is a "universal" design for fry scoops and salt shaker is same... BK even uses the same salt shaker. Now where McD is "unique" is in its actual machines they use... from the clamshell presses on the grills that is literally like having 2 grills cooking the burgers at the same time to the fry hopper (which is not exclusive to McD but most places don't spend the extra $$ to get them) to the drink robot (which again is not exclusive to McD because you CAN get them in resturant supply companies). This is where McD separates themselves from the others.. in its automation... but the utensils and tools they use are generic resturant equipment that every place uses.... kind of like the coffee makers that EVERY place has... and 99.9% of them have the same NAME on them as well... BUNN. You can go into any resturant and say "I need some BUNN water" and they will more than likely know you want some hot water from the water spigot on the coffee maker. MCD does have a fry scoop that has a smaller cuttout on the bottom of it so that it can work like the normal generic scoop but can also fit inside the TINY kids size boxes they have though... the ones you can barely get a finger inside it lol.
@@gabe_motherboard3355 Not physically dropping the fries in the oil. But more-so keeping a supply of fries and hashbrowns and also following the orders...I was unreasonably bad at it for some reason. Also, I know you're thinking it, but I'm not stupid!
It is easy. I work at a different fast food restaurant and I also got to do curly fries, nuggets, tenders, mozzarella sticks, jalapeno bites, crinkle cut fries, and some limited items as well. And even then, I thought it is easy
I had no idea there was a machine that existed that is basically an ice dispenser for french fries. Very cool! Sure beats having to open and close a freezer all the time and tear open bag after bag, and risk the paper style bags ripping in the summer from all the condensation.

Literally hasn't changed in 10 years. Idk why it would have but it's crazy seeing my job from 2010 and absolutely nothing being different about it, the boxes, the freezer, the fryers, the fry station, the scooper, nothing changed. Went through a lot of shit staring at that bright ass fry station.
Wow
My mom's been working back in 2003 and she also said it's almost the same
I did this right here before and during the pandemic, and it was a Carl's Jr, it's pretty much the same
Why change when it is working properly? Of course it won’t change if it is satisfying its purpose
Thought the same thing. Gave me a rush of both bad & good feelings from back in the day when I was younger.
Watching this takes me back 25 years. It's exactly the same now as it was back then. This is fascinating and I'm glad you posted this.
I used to worked at McD's and the fries line is the hardest. You have to move non stop and be so fast to have the fries ready to be picked for the customers. So much respect for this guy.
I work right across from the fries and the guy who works there is ALWAYS busy, major respect for keeping up on it
I worked there in the days we still had the sandwich racks with premade burgers on them. I gained like 30lbs in the year I worked there because we could eat whatever was left in the racks at close, lol.
im currently working at maccies and im always on fries, id probably say it is the hardest station but not by that much, being on the actual food prep line is also hard but atleast the work load is spread across 3-4 people
I got told that it was the easiest when I started working there, and all of the workers who were too slow got jeered at because it was "easy". I believed it until I went on fry duty during rush hour, at a McDonalds station next to a central motorway. Was a bit of a rude awakening
I always thought meat was the worst... I hardly ever worked the fry station tho... they usually had people up front run that, I preferred the backline
I remember when I was a little kid, when I was at a McDonald’s and my mom just took our order, I looked around and could see the people working in the back. There was a young man working on the fries like in the video. I remember being in awe of how fast they were working. This video just reminded me of that memory.

@Pilotman Why dont you ask for fresh fries? It scares me that the common person does not ask for fresh food when they go to these " Fast food "places. Many years ago I ate from fast food places, and I always asked for fresh food. Then I go and put my eyes on the assemblers hands to see what he is doing. They used to always make the food correctly.

Never have I ever seen McDonald's fries packed that generously in my entire life. Either I've been getting ripped off by McDonald's, or this is false advertising. Fries should be fully packed this way!
It’s a franchise owner who usually watches out how generous or how stingy a carton needs to be filled. It’s used to be quite generous like this 20 years ago. I think now they are becoming quite stingy with the volume for the same or more expensive price everywhere. There’s also this typical greedy corporation in HQ side that decides how big the carton is supposed to be as well. Lol.

When it got crazy busy you would go 12/6 continuously lay which meant you had 24 burgers cooking on same side and you just keep putting down more!!! Good times!!
@@ArtieLovesPancakes143 I guess I remember that being called “batch cooking”. Drop 1/4 pound patties first, then reg patties. Reg patties would cook faster and come up first. By the time you seasoned, stacked and put in warmer, the 1/4 pound patties would be coming up.

Kind of surprised that one basket of fries only fills a few orders of fries. Then again, compared to my local McDonald's, you were pretty generous in filling those orders pretty full. How many baskets of fries do you have to keep going in the fryer to keep up during peak times?
We can adjust the size of the basket according to how busy we are! Also we can drop up to 6 baskets here at a time!
I don't work at McD's but have a good sense as to how foodservice works. During peak hours, you'll likely see all fryers used in a rotation. You've got high-temp fat being introduced with frozen or even refrigerated product. Fryers, like most equipment, have recovery times. That is to get the base heating unit (in this example - fat or grease) to consistently produce a good product within a certain amount of time. Overload that cooking unit over and over again, and performance goes downward. So that's when you know to open up the 2nd or even 3rd fryers - distribute the breakdown and get better recovery.
@@mil2k11 this is a science
@@StephenPatula hey man I have a question. Is you McDonald’s absolutely MASSIVE. Or is it just me?
@@mil2k11 You can see that even though they weren't busy he was rotating through the fryers as he dropped the baskets. At the start of the video there was a basket in fryer 3, and then he dropped his next two baskets in fryers 1 and 2.
I remember having this job for awhile at wendies, the most underrated part is how hot that tool is, the beds for the fries are heated both from the bottom and a heat lamp, plus fresh fries have the oil so I would come home occasionally with first degree, and sometimes second degree burns on my hands until they calloused over and I stopped feeling the heat lmao. Fry cooks do the grim work silently in the corner.

So hypnotizing to watch. Love to see people doing work. Roofing, framing, pressure washing, cutting grass, painting, plumbing, cooking, or on the French fry station. Great videos.
Been working in Fastfood since I was 14 (I’m 23 now) and making fries is probably the chilliest position to be in but the one you sweat the most at 😅
I’ve worked McDonald’s, Burger King, a few street kitchens but currently working at a Swedish Fastfood chain called Max. Probably the best kitchen setup out of McDonalds, BK, Max take the top spot.
Menu has healthy and very unhealthy options as well but all the food is really good, varies of course between different restaurants with different suppliers, but for the most part.
I’d say for the most part it’s never about the work you do but the people around you that makes the job really fun and enjoyable. Then again… it’s also fun finishing 20 orders within 5-8 minutes (in the kitchen! You’re a real G if you can do that in the register)

Your restaurant looks nice. Very clean and efficient. Whatever the job is, I love to see people take pride in what they do.
The fact that there’s a dedicated appliance just for loading the fryer baskets blows my mind. Bet that makes all the difference though during a rush.
It also keeps the fries frozen until just before cooking, which improves the quality.
I used to work at Wendy's and we had to grab the fry bags out from the freezer to load them. This way is definitely more efficient
That fry dispenser machine is legit! Never seen anything like that

Worked at McDonald's for 7 years, two separate McDonald's for that combined 7 years; at the second one which I worked the longest from... a few times during my tenure I would be designated to working on fries only for most of my shift for a few months out of the time. We were a very busy McDonald's gaining anywhere from 800-900 customers in drive thru alone from an 8 hour shift! So doing fries you were always busy from when lunch started till the end of your shift. See this is quite nostalgic lol McDonald's was my first job and the other McDonald's was my second. Currently working at a new grocery chain I've only ever had 3 jobs so far of my 11 years of working.

Currently working at McDonald's Australia rn, and the fries I think are the most underappreciated things. Working at this station is alright, but tough work when it's just you. Having to make sure the fry dispensor is always full, getting new fry boxes, actually frying multiple baskets for nearly three minutes during a busy day is an easy way to put a lot of stress and pressure onto you. Ain't a good job, and soon I'll have to do seven hours of fries.
If you don't mind me asking out of curiosity - is there an automatic timer of the fry frier or do people have to manually keep track of time, can you explain it to me how it works?
@@LovelyLittleLillies We have a timer of roughly 2 minutes and 50 seconds on fries, Hash Browns are approximately 2:30. Specifically on the fries, they go on "duty" at 2:25 where we'll need to press a button so it stops beeping then give it a little shake. After that you basically let them be, give em a shake if you want or do something else until the timer goes out. However if you're in a rush, it's fully okay to pull the fries out with 30 seconds left, they're basically done by then.

I went to McDonald's yesterday for the first time in years because of this channel.. This man deserves a promotion at the very least. And after that maybe this man could hook me up with some coupons.
Let’s just appreciate the sound of the opening of the fries holders…
I found the small details, like the fries holder cartoon making a "folding" sound when it was unflattened, really satisfying
And its actually kinda crazy just how efficient McDonalds has made its food production. From that very useful fries scooper design to even the salt dispenser.
Yeah honestly, I work at a small food place that's part of a chain of kiosk. Think 7/11 with a proper grill and stuff. I'd kill for the entire food making process to be more streamlined and efficient.
That’s everywhere not just
McDonald’s dude
The "tools" they use are generic restaurant equipment. That scoop is a "universal" design for fry scoops and salt shaker is same... BK even uses the same salt shaker.
Now where McD is "unique" is in its actual machines they use... from the clamshell presses on the grills that is literally like having 2 grills cooking the burgers at the same time to the fry hopper (which is not exclusive to McD but most places don't spend the extra $$ to get them) to the drink robot (which again is not exclusive to McD because you CAN get them in resturant supply companies). This is where McD separates themselves from the others.. in its automation... but the utensils and tools they use are generic resturant equipment that every place uses.... kind of like the coffee makers that EVERY place has... and 99.9% of them have the same NAME on them as well... BUNN. You can go into any resturant and say "I need some BUNN water" and they will more than likely know you want some hot water from the water spigot on the coffee maker.
MCD does have a fry scoop that has a smaller cuttout on the bottom of it so that it can work like the normal generic scoop but can also fit inside the TINY kids size boxes they have though... the ones you can barely get a finger inside it lol.
When I worked at McDs they almost fired me because of how bad I was at the fries lol. This guy makes it look so easy
