They clearly ran out of the five E letters that they had. Notice that “Text” is shortened to “TXT” and two of the E’s that are already up there are from another set.
Sounds good to me. The local McDonald’s franchise owner is a prominent family in my city and pay their workers a starting wage of $16 an hour. If you’re crew, they provide $2,500 a year towards college tuition with the prerequisite that you’ve been employed for at least 90 days and work a minimum of 15 hours a week, and if you’re in a managerial position they pay over $5,000 a year. I have friends from high school who took advantage of this program, got degrees at a community college, and now are making 3 times what they were at McDonald’s.
This is a company that trains more people every year than the US military. They know that value of education, and of offering incentives to their people.
McDonald’s (Corporate) will pay your college tuition, both as a crew person and more as a manager if you’re working at McDonald’s while going to college.
I know a few people who did this when it was only available to managers.
People make fun of working at McDonald’s, but if you stick with it, there are definite advantages. The majority of their executives started out flipping burgers.
We can joke about McDonald’s but all I’ve heard about them is that they treat staff very well. I have a friend who worked at one of their places at the counter. He got university paid for by them and now has a decently senior role with them.
Honestly when I looked at their employment contract years ago, I was impressed. I’m sure certain franchisees can be terrable bosses, but mcdonald’s as a whole seemed like an excellent employer.
Wow, this is exciting news from McDonald’s! It’s great to see a company taking steps to invest in the education and future of its employees. Providing tuition assistance for college degrees is a significant benefit that can make a huge difference in the lives of McDonald’s workers, many of whom may not have otherwise had the opportunity to pursue higher education.
This move not only benefits individual employees, but it also speaks to McDonald’s commitment to investing in its workforce and promoting upward mobility. I hope that other companies take note of this initiative and consider implementing similar programs to support their employees.
Overall, this is a fantastic step forward in promoting education and professional development in the fast food industry, and I commend McDonald’s for taking this proactive approach to supporting their employees.
KFC recently introduced a program like this, too. They partner with an online college and provide free classes for those employees that are interested.
Only if you pay for it up front up front and get good enough grades. Oh and it’s only up to a certain amount that likely won’t cover everything. So it’s likely out of reach for most McDonalds workers. Calling it a “debt free college degre” (lol spelling error) is very misleading.
Downside: Oath of Allegiance. You’ll have to work there forever…
To McDonald’s own university HamburgerU
Edit: I think everyone thinks I am joking, I am not McDonald’s has a college https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamburger_University
Golden Arches College – we’re only second to Trump University! Goooooo Diabetes!
Degre’ …it sounds fancier with the apostrophe
They actually do have a school where you can become a certified McDonalds operator. That makes you eligible to open your own McDonalds. LOL
Maybe it’s French. Fries.
I got my law degree at Costco.

It’s a ‘Collage’ Degre. From the Collage of Crafts And Arts, Albuquerque Campus and Coffee (open from 6 to 6).
The the last ‘e’ is gonna cost you though, and it ain’t cheap.

There is NO way this is an ad.

My local chickfila does this too. Almost a free ride. At least for 2 years
Well, maybe they’re spending so much on education that they can’t afford to buy more letters.
I’ve changed signs like that before, my money is on they ran out of “E”s
Omg a free education, but yes let’s focus on the lack of a vowel 🙄
Giv3 ‘3m a br3ak. Thy only hav3 so many 3’s for posting th3 w33kly fry d3als.
I received a scholarship from McDonald’s. They did help pay for my degree.
Well the person who put up the sign isn’t taking advantage of the program I guess.
Is it because youre a working student?
Fast food jobs suck but McDs does offer some good incentives for people who choose to take advantage of them.
Number is valid: I verified.
What’s funny about this?

Remember to thank a teecher for your spelling ability.
This gets you in the door once you ask about paying for college they are like whoa didn’t you see the sign we pay for your degre not your degree
You get what you pay for
I’m assuming they were out of e’s because of text bring out down as txt
People make fun of working at McDonald’s, but if you stick with it, there are definite advantages. The majority of their executives started out flipping burgers.
They pay well straight out of college to be a manager. But who wants to manage their average entry level employee. That shit would suck
Nothing funny about this. They will legit help pay for your tuition.
They probably only had 7 e’s. That one didn’t make the cut
This tracks.
Jokes aside, that’s pretty noble of them. Very generous.
This is actually a corporate level thing, available to ALL McDonald’s workers, not a one-off individual franchisee program.
You seem to have a strangely exaggerated grudge against McDonald’s throughout your replies. It’s kind of weird, actually.
Also the letter likely fell out from wind/rain/whatever.
Pretty easy for those letters to fall off, don’t know that I’d be so quick to assume it’s a misspelling.

they probably ran outta e’s cause that first E in college looks sus

Not sure why this is posted here, isnt this a very good thing? What’s funny about this?

A lot of times they run out of a certain letter or they fall off, I hated doing the sign everyone is a critic
It’s attitudes like OPs that make people ashamed to work at places even if it’s manageable and beneficial to their situation.
Like isn’t this what everyone wants? The ability to work a minimum wage job while still having a decent chance at a future?
They clearly ran out of Es there’s 7 in the picture now so funny.
This has been a thing for decades.
My daughter works for UPS. They paid 100% of her college and even gave her generous bonuses for good grades and graduation.
