McDonald's Sales Crumble All Around The World!!! | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 14660352  Argentina11/08/2012 12:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ... Quoting: thetrickybigguy a friend of mine manages one right off I-95 in holly'weird' fl and he told me that there is ALWAYS somebody at the drive thru window 24/7 so that doesn't sound like 'sales are crumbling' to me... McDonalds is food for the poor and God knows there are enough poor people in this country. Poor people in the U.S.  You should get out and see the world. As an American, I had no idea what poverty was until I went to countries that are actually poor. Try spending time in a place like Laos and you'll have your definition of "poor people" redefined for you in a hurry. The average worker's salary in Laos is less than $1/day (which is common in many countries in the world), so many people there try to harvest the metal from the millions of bombs dropped on the country during the Vietnam War (Laos is the most heavily-bombed country in history), even though they know there's a good chance the bomb they're trying to get the metal from is UXO (unexploded ordnance) and could well blow up in their faces. Now THAT my friend is poverty. Nobody cares about your third world country.  Alexis de Tocqueville: "I sought for the key to the greatness of America in her harbors; in her fertile fields and boundless forests; in her rich mines and vast world commerce; in her public school system and institutions of learning. I sought for it in her democratic Congress and in her matchless Constitution. Not until I went into the churches of America and heard her pulpits aflame with righteousness did I understand the secret of her genius and power. America is great because America is good, and if America ever ceases to be good, America ceases to be great." You people with the compassion of a cobra - you deserve what's coning. Thanks for that, Kirk. The lack of compassion among a certain segment of the population is astonishing. He was a divisive figure, to be sure, but I think Che Guevara said it best: "Above all, always be able to feel deeply any injustice committed against anyone, anywhere in the world." And as for the topic at hand, McDonald's, one of the best things that could happen to this world is that the public wakes up and realizes that they've been poisoned all these years by McDonald's and other fast food companies. McDonald's is a deeply-interwoven part of the fabric of the eugenics agenda of TPTB. |

I have gall bladder problems (hereditary, not diet) and the last time I ate there I had a gall bladder attack from hell. Anything that causes it to me says I, and my family, do not need to eat it. |

I have a iron stomach, I can eat things that could make a dog puke but when it comes to McD, I am out for at least a day and no longer purchase any of their solid food products. |

I don't think they have ever gotten my order wrong either, not once! I miss the koroke baagaa from Japan. Damn, didn't they just have a big hiring spree not to long ago?? More job losses from the looks of things. :( |

Quoting: thetrickybigguy When a fami.y of four spend $50 bucks at McDonalds it is no longer affordable for the poor. No doubt that EBT cards will soon be able to be used there. They already can be used. Ill vouch for that...there was a McDonalds franchise in NE ohio some years back and they actually had an EBT machine for hot food....of course they eventually got rid of the machine, for what reasons i do not know.... |

Exploiting kids, enticing them in with that retarded clown for free toys and to eat their shit food. Quoting: bargoose Hope they go bust soon. What about burger king? They do the same thing only they use the king instead of a clown. Do you hate them as well or just McDonalds? Yes, i despise them both. On the path of least resistance |

Food sucks. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1510193 I tried their breakfast - never again. Wasn't that much cheaper than a real restaurant and the sausage tasted vile. Screw me once, shame on you.

McD corporate are crazy if they think they can build a business selling dog food. world's largest chain of hamburger fast food restaurants, serving around 68 million customers daily in 119 countries McDonald's operates over 31,000 restaurants worldwide, employing more than 1.5 million people McDonald's revenues grew 27 percent over the three years ending in 2007 to $22.8 billion, and 9 percent growth in operating income to $3.9 billion Wish i was as crazy as the Mcdonalds coperation. OP wasn't talking about 2007. I'm sure he posted this today. After the economic collapse in 2008 things are getting much worse. Even Wal Mart is having problems with profitability and their prices are at an all time high. |

| thetrickybigguy say hello to my little friend... User ID: 27300086 United States11/08/2012 01:56 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I always thought McDonalds had a bad buisness model. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1779676 When you think of unhealthy fast food, McDonalds is ALWAYS the biggest and first to come to mind. Been that way for 25 years or so. So burger king isn't as bad in the public eye, generally less older people eating at McDonalds and people waking up and trying to be healthier among other things drives their sales down. a friend of mine manages one right off I-95 in holly'weird' fl and he told me that there is ALWAYS somebody at the drive thru window 24/7 so that doesn't sound like 'sales are crumbling' to me... McDonalds is food for the poor and God knows there are enough poor people in this country. I know that McD's... Ha! Just down the road from me... I guess I am a Holly'weirdo'  that is funny and he told me today they take inventory once a week and it used to be 5K short on the take but now they got it down to about 2500 so they cut it in half but that is how much people shove in their mouths through out the day. dude lets get a big mac and have a laugh about GLP...

User ID: 27300086 United States11/08/2012 02:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | my "uncle" told me he cannot go to McDonalds any more because there is something wierd-tasting about the meat. Quoting: truth 27140421 A company thatis getting ready to go into bankruptcy or wanting to do an entirely new make-over, willdo things to lower sales; they die, then re-bloom with a brand, new un-recognizable face, and new name, often in the dust of the old business. I suspect this is the reason McDonalds wants to disappear: [link to www.youtube.com] McDonalds will have to come back as a parking lot or a family, hamburger/beer joint etc. In other words an establishment that will have to have parents accompanying the children. McDonalds has the best meat of all the burger joints, thus,I feel McDonalds has too much invested in too many ranches in the Rain forests to giveup meat sandwiches. wants to disappear? check out this link and then tell me they are going to disappear....

The company, which has enjoyed a stellar few years following the economic crisis, said that its turnover had increased by 12pc to $27bn, with net income increasing 11pc to $5.5bn. This is the ninth consecutive year that sales have increased after it suffered from a crisis of confidence at the end of the 1990s. wouldn't appear to be so for McDonalds. www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/retailandconsumer/9035768/McDonalds-hits-record-27bn-turnover.html |

Same thing in France, Mcdonalds is like a get together place. It's like Demolition Man when they go to a fancy restaurant and it's Taco Bell. On my one stop in France, at the Paris airport, I ate at the McDonalds there because it late, and it was the best Mcdonald's sandwich and fries I'd ever had. Far better than American McDonalds. |
