of course working at mcdonalds is for losers... anyone who says otherwise are just lying.

the biggest losers of mcdonalds are the managers!

have some respect for yourself -- don't work at fast food places -- unless you're a loser.

I have no idea what makes someone a "loser."

I served coffee, cleaned hotel rooms (campus hotel) and worked at a gas station to get through school.

But, I read somewhere in here that the OP is trying to get into journalism ... from a j-school grad, all I can say is DON'T.

Careers in journalism, for the most part, don't pay the bills.

Get into PR or some kind of corporate communications. if you're a reporter/copy editor/tv news producer ... you're still going to need that second job to eat decently.

Im in it already.

Make okay money.

Working part time to pay off a few bills, quitting in decmeber.

I knew I wasnt making a lot since a sophomore in college.

I love, love, love my job though.

I might go into PR later in life though.

if you love your work, more power to you.

I gave it a shot -- newspaper grunt for no money; freelance music journalist for less.

I've done a few freelance projects since I got a real job ... but they usually paid less than my bar tabs.

sold out (went the MBA route); no regrets.

Like the older folks say it beats a blank. Definitely better than being broke and sitting at home all day. But if you are over 25 and still working at Mickey D's than u need a change of career. Especially if you are still behind the grill and not managing the joint.
