ARE YOU SICK OF LOW WAGES? Would you prefer a decent pay rise, guaranteed hours, overtime pay and an end to humiliating "performance reviews"?
ARE YOU SICK OF SEEING PEOPLE INJURED?
Even McDonald's admit that burns, slips and falls etc are BIG problems.
ARE YOU SICK OF BEING BOSSED AROUND?
Do you want RIGHTS, and freedom from being constantly watched and treated like being in the Army? Do you want an end to harassment and unfair dismissals?
ARE YOU SICK OF POOR WORKING CONDITIONS?
Do you want relief from continual pressures to work hard, to 'hustle', to cut corners with safety procedures? Do you want decent breaks, and to smile when YOU feel like it?
ARE YOU SICK OF McDONALD'S?
Are you fed up with all the crawling to bigwigs from Head Office, the company's inane propaganda, and their processed food?
DO YOU WANT TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT ?
