At my place, there were two people that contributed to putting together someone’s order. In drive-thru there will either be three or two people (a good setup would be a person giving out the orders, a person making the drinks, and a person taking orders on the second headset. Sometimes if it’s understaffed though the person on headset will be making the drinks). Once the person has finished making the drinks, they’ll put them on the counter for the person on window to sort out. Then there’s the person who takes the orders from kitchen and bags them. When they’re finished, they put the food on the counter for the person at window to take. The person at window basically looks at the order onscreen and joins it to the drinks/food that are on their counter to figure out what the current customer’s order is.

Only thing, that really annoyed me... When the boys from the back of the car are screaming to the front and you headset didnt catch up everything.

Legit waited for this lady the other day to find her wallet in her purse for 3 minutes. (I could have taken 6 orders in that time). •If we call your order and you don’t come for 5 minutes even after multiple times we’ve called it. Then don’t you have the audacity and come to me and say it was cold. Now are we just supposed to throw away all this food and make you a new serving just because you’re a stup1d fuck? •The people treat you like you’re a robot. You could say Me: “Hello and welcome what would you like to have today” they answer with this order Them: “I THIS I WANT THIS” Me: Anything else? Them: if I would’ve wanted something else I would have said SOOO later on give them their food and wishes them to enjoy it walks off with it and no thank you or gratitude.

Its nice to find a good McDonald's where they get it right and are friendly. Would love to visit this location.

Wow, that machine gives you exactly the change you need to put back, that's great

This is a breath of fresh air. At multiple locations in my area, those working the window barely acknowledge your existence and act as if you are a hassle. Rarely, do you find friendly, customer-focused workers?

I work a window at a local resturaunt, and I've gotta say, I think this might be the only area I prefer my store over McDonalds. We use Toast, which may not have as many features as McDonalds' systems (I don't know specifically what they use), it's far easier to analyze and understand. Also, I spend alot more time with guests, mainly because we're a single window resturaunt. Oh, the joys a cash window would bring us!

Bruh you wanna talk to the customers?

It has been more than a week since I’ve started working at McDonald’s and, I wish that I found your channel beforehand❤

I like that machine that counts the coins. Pretty cool. Thanks for the video.

Great to see some different parts of the operation besides the kitchen! Just might wanna go back blur a couple of the credit cards. Seems you could read them pretty easily.

This was my home position for 1.5/2 years I was the quiet guy so my managers would always put me in the back so they could have fun with the more sociable employees up front. Despite that, I still loved to be in the back cashing out while taking orders, cleaning trays, and setting up oatmeal's for the morning. I could do the job blindfolded and I always left my station clean and organized.

Same I am quiet too but I would prefer the kitchen better just sick of working this position for 3 months for 8 hours then having to clean the whole place after every shift for 6 days a week getting off at 11 at night only getting 5 hours of sleep and having school at the same time

That coin counter can be so helpful in getting costumers change fast I wish all fast food restaurants has this

I know I'm bored at work when this is literally what I watch when I'm not busy... even though this is my exact job (plus taking orders for BOTH lanes)... I'm the king of the back cash castle.

I didn't realize that many people still paid with cash!

I'm in the UK and used to work retail and yes lots of people still pay with cash. I've found it's mainly the older generation that use it and mainly young people that pay using their card/phone.

I’m lovin’ it

Brotha I respect the hustle!

I don’t know why this is so satisfying to watch lol

Wow. It is crazy how different all McDonald’s are. Mine we have to hand count all change and cash, and we always double check the order as ours doesn’t have the screen that shows you the car. Since it is Canada we also bring the debit machine to the customer instead of taking their card

Yea I have to count the change out too and mine doesn’t show the car either

The difference to my store is pretty crazy. Generally the order taking here is a lot more aggressive so customers feel like they are getting faster service and we can push cars through. We rarely repeat the price, rather we point at an outside screen with the order details on it and say "hey, was your order correct on the screen?". We don't give receipts out unless requested because they slow down the drivethru and is generally a waste of paper that we have to order from the supplier. And statistically, the majority of sales is with PayPass or tap'n-go payment methods so we don't touch customer credit/ debit cards. They just tap their card on a panel that we hold out for them and they're good to go

I find it interesting how different Aussie Macca's is to US Macca's this being a prime example, we have our eftpos machines on a stick which they stick out the window for you to use, not often do we hand the card over

I like how you can tell they actually put money into there McDonald's locations and it all comes right back to them anyway .I love it I work do that so many McDonald's a lot of them are different but it's the same stuff

As someone who lives in Australia I find it bizarre seeing people pay by cash. The vast majority of payments here are done electronically with some QSR's having the POS terminal on a boom so we can use our card/watch/phone to pay without handing over a card.

@@amak1131 Yeah conspiracy theorists are all over cash not going away, or if they're older then 60 years old.

I worked at the golden arches for 5 years and I hated working cash booth, I never had an order taker and our drive through was a 2 lane, I hated it but I tell you I was the fastest order taker and cashier in the store. Also I worked closing shift and dayshift would never do their dishes so I'd walk in to a 3 foot tall stack of dishes at 3:00 every afternoon, heck most days they wouldn't even have the breakfast dishes clean, bouncing back and forth between the sink and the window all day sucks, ESPECIALLY in the winter, 10 below and soaked inn dishwater X(

I worked at McD's over 20 years ago. I mostly did grill but when I had to do the register I hated the learning curve needed to be efficient at it. Back then it was just like a two tone computer screen (which was fairly high tech for the times lol). You had to have the muscle memory to know to hit the number 3 for example for a Diet coke after hitting the right value meal entry number. It was all text, no images so you could be there scanning around on the screen then looking down at the number pad to find which button it is for a stupid drink meanwhile the customer is already spouting out their 3rd item when you didn't even hear the 2nd one. And oh boy, if they had a coupon or sauces or something special you were going to have angry customers who are already judging your abilities from being a McD's worker in the first place. Looking incompetent on top of that just isn't a fun experience. But once you get the hang of it there's a huge difference between the level of exhaustion from doing a register shift vs a grill shift. The best time tbh for working the grill area is when it's busy oddly enough. Because there's usually more people concentrating on their own little area. So you'd just be like the person who has to work the end of the line. Or be the person who just keeps up on the vats for cooking the chicken stuff. The second you go down to like 3 people and others are being sent on break and if you are a closing person, it just starts to suck. You've got to run in the back to restock, clean, keep up on orders and bounce around with things while the register people are just standing there waiting for you to hurry up with an order. Managers tend to prioritize the counter area and not realized how much more physical work the grill person has to do.

So how does it figure out the coin return so fast? I didn't see him punch in the amount given. Does it AI the notes?

I also backed it up and noticed he hit the “next dollar” button. The last woman’s total was $7.96 and she gave him $8-the next whole dollar from the total.

Recreate this video while order taking…Trust me to anyone who doesn’t work at McDonald’s and watches this, and thinks this looks easy, it’s not! This has to be the most stressful thing to do while working at McDonald’s.

This was by far my favorite position. When the place was packed and the cars backing up onto the parking lot and orders still only taking seconds, good old times...

This is probably the best pov imo.

I always work in grill at my McDonald’s or clean lobby like wipe tables down and stock straws and napkins and also I take trash out and I help in grill I cook regular meat and I also cook quarter meat and help wrap sandwiches it’s a awesome Job to have

OH my gosh. I am horrified that you do not have a spring clip holding down those 20s! I can GUARANTEE that the drawer is short 20 daily and its behind / under the till. In order to solve this dilemma sacrifice one of your register drawers and use the parts from it to fix all the broken ones, it helps with cash issues and saves the managers some time! =D

This brings me back. Spent a lot of time in back cash myself.

Man back when i was working at Mcdonalds, we were always short staffed, i remember one day my multitasking was tested, i had to do both lanes and take payment. never focused so hard before. Taking a single lane and payment at the same time was a piece of cake but for most it was really tuff. Edit: i always like to say something from there order just to make sure, usually the camera and merging of vehicles is correct but some people cut in front and there is a chance for it to be wrong if busy enough lol.

Im a cashier at McDonald's
