I find it hard to believe that you continued working at that store for four and a half years under such conditions.

I find it hard to believe that you continued working at that store for four and a half years under such conditions. I agree that you would have been a 'nieve' 14 year old for a year, but surely at ages 15 or 16 you would have realised that much of what was going on there was unacceptable and left? Its not as if its impossible to find part time employment. Perahaps you're a sadist. Or maybe just an exagerrator.

And what about things like Spring Up, the P.A.L system, Full Field, and mystery customers from Head Office? Every Australian Maccas has to go through these processes, and if your store was as disgraceful as you describe, I'm having a hard time believeing that it is still in operation.

If you are truly concerned about these practices, why don't you give the name of your store and allow a proper investigation to be carried out by Head Office to prevent others after you suffering from such negligence? Or perhaps your store doesn't exist at all.
