Tbf when I worked at BK they told me everything I would be doing as a line cook. When I started my shift the first thing the supervisor told me to do was clean the washrooms. I told them no, I was hired as a line cook and no one told me about washrooms. So the supe says I can clean them or he'll get the manager involved and I'll probably be fired. I said sure call him. Supe comes back and tells me to start in the kitchen. Turned out line cooks were not supposed to be cleaning washrooms and the manager came in the next day to explain everyone's duties.

But later turned out that supe was going out with one of the cashiers.

I worked at a BK too as a shift manager and that place was a zoo. Now whenever I go to a BK I notice the same problems: severely understaffed, manager stuck working multiple “team” positions, etc. BK sucks; their entire operations are light years away from where McDonald’s was at.

Not to say one or the other has better food. McDonald’s is faster and more efficient because they limit the amount of prep necessary, but a FRESH Whopper tastes much better than anything McDonald’s sells (IMO).
