The fact that multiple crew members communicate exactly how many minutes are left until breakfast service is over is impressive. They are ready to make hotcakes or sausage patties right up until the very end - that is good service. I should be so lucky rolling up to my local McDonald's at 10:10 only to be told breakfast is (arbitrarily) over.

I never worked for McDonalds but I did work a kitchen cooking breakfast and lunch for a cafe in a large hospital. Its strange cause that life is well behind me, but I do miss the environment of cooking and the satisfaction it creates when you make food for people in a large quantity. I loved getting the order ticket and knowing exactly how long it took for eggs, bacon, sausage, quesadillas, and other items to be ready and time it all out to produce the item for the customer in a timely manner. I will say the best thing you can have as a cook is a caring and understanding staff that wont freak out when everything is backed up.

As someone who has worked for McDonald's Canada for 3 years, I have all the respect in the world for my fellow Mickey-D's employees around the world. One thing I will mention is how surprised I am by the vast differences in uniforms. I am not insulting McDonald's USA in any form, but the uniforms seem to be less formal than those here in Canada. (Uniform is issued, must be tucked in, etc.) Nonetheless, all the respect in the fast food industry goes to your McDonald's. In every video I've seen on your channel your crew members are skilled and have some of the greatest communication skills I have seen at any fast food restaurant. I recently quit my 3 year gig and I must say that I will forever miss working at McD's. You are a great manager who ensures his crew members are competent and ready for anything a harsh lunch rush may bring. You run your franchise well. Keep lovin' it, Stephen!

I worked at McD from 2012-2018. Good memories. I'm 27 now and still miss the vibes. Obviously it sucked at times, but overall, I enjoyed the work. I would follow ALL the timer on the ULDs tyvm.

When I last worked for a Maccas, The breakfast to lunch changeover was by far one of the most stressful times of the day with the compacting the remaining breakfast trays to take as little space as possible in the UHC in order to make room for the lunch trays, also somebody having to record temps for the lunch items that will be stored in the UHC, all while there had to be somebody initiate/assemble keeping up with the orders still coming in and I didn't forget to mention at any point the front can ask for pies or cookies to be baked so somebody has to put those in. It's just not a fun time lol.

YES THANK YOU!! FINALLY THE VIDEO WE'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR

If only it were like this back in the day. My store cut off breakfast 30 minutes early and it was hectic. No organization whatsoever, kudos to you sir!

Stephen Patula, thank you for producing and sharing what work is like for people everyday.

I don't know why I love watching these videos, but I do. From start to end, it's thrilling to watch. Keep making these!

Smoother transition than i figured. I miss the all day breakfast. My local mcdonalds will still hook ya up with certain items like breakfast burritos all day. But not the rest menu. Great video man.

Having worked in fast food for over 10 years it's unique to see how everyone works together. My restaurant never did breakfast (KFC) but there was constant communication from the front end order takers, drive thru team members, production and the cooks. It was always called out when we were running low on product, always to ensure we were never completely out. Even after we officially closed if we had customers and the product was available (fryers and cookers were off) we'd make it. For example if someone came through at 10:05pm looking for a Big Crunch combo, we'd make the sandwich, drink and probably throw in a few tenders/pieces of chicken as we couldn't make fries because our fryers take at least 30 minutes to heat up. I miss that job sometimes. We had a great team that was always worked together

Nice to see how your team is working. There is actually a more efficient way to put the full UHC in a different mode. You can select the button in the left upper corner and choose Modes, select your mode and the full UHC-unit is switched immediately.

Always enjoy watching your vids, Stephen! You work hard. And you care about what you do. And your videos are fun to watch too! McDonalds should be recognizing you for promoting their brand more positively! Hopefully they are. Aloha 😊🤙🏼👏🏼
