11-2-10 It's a great day for America

Bet none of you guys have one of these lying around:




I have one in a box somewhere!! I remember thinking those square records were wild stuff!

If you have a cooperative McDonald's have them dip a McChicken filet into the rib sauce.

That was one of my favorite employee meals back in the day.

Mmmmmmm.

Sounds like something they should offer every day, IMO.

How long ago did you work there?

I worked there in HS, when you still had to "flip" the burgers.

We used to have all kinds of fun.

Races on who could flip six patties the fastest (yes, we used stop watches), who could dress 3 Big Macs the quickest, how long we could keep a quarter pound patty on the grill before a manager yelled at us, what happens when you throw pickles in the deep fryers, etc.

Back in the 80's. Had it not been for that stint at Mickey D's I may have pursued a culinary career. We used to do all sorts of whacky stuff that I shan't recap publically. One of the repeatable things though was we'd freeze rolled up hand towels in the side freezers and then smack each other with them. One guy got one to break in half. It was pretty funny.
