Do Whatever It Takes

Hey Kevin. I've been working for McD's since January of 1992. In June of '93, I was promoted to Assistant Manager. When you say you've heard that "small raises are given periodically", you're absolutely right. Wage reviews (as they are called) will never put your wage through the roof. Promotion is the way to go. Cara is right when she says that you have to be motivated and a hard worker because that is what it takes to get recognition. My advice to you, if you do decide on McDonald's, is go for the promotions. They are based purely on performance, not length of servive. Remember, if you do take a promotion, it doesn't mean that you have to stay there for life.

Good Luck,
Rod
