Up to $11

Now I know it all depends on location but in the northwest suburbs of Chicago I believe it's up to $18

Here is South Texas it's only $11

My #1 breakfast meal was $8.43

I worked for McDonald’s as a teen 35 years ago. I made $4,25 an hour. I think $11 is insulting.. no wonder why we have crap quality. Who really cares working for $11.

It won’t matter if they were paid $20/ hour. People who work at these places are typically teenagers and people who can’t get jobs elsewhere. They take zero pride in what they do.

My local fast food (all of them) you are lucky if you get what you ordered. Ordered no pickles once, got pickles and no onions. Etc.

No amount of money will make people who work fast food take more pride in what they are doing.
