To be clear -- you could tell me right now i could get a job at mcdonalds, starting at $20/h, and even with a 3 dollar pay raise from my current job i wouldn't do it.

You could tell me i could make 25 an hour and i STILL wouldn't do it.

Most of you don't realize those jobs are stressful and you're treated like garbage by people like the classist posters here.

Nope, disagree entirely with this, just based on my own experiences. I wouldn't take a pay raise to work at McDonald's, but that's because I have particular career aspirations that working at McDonald's wouldn't further. I also think that's true of most people.

If people really just chose jobs based on stress vs reward, McDonald's is definitely less stress. I found working there really easy and not at all stressful - except my bosses were awful, but that's still true. Dealing with customers was easy

I've worked 30+ jobs in my life.
The way people treat you in retail is far, far worse than in labor, trades, health care, or sales.
Way, way worse.
Don't pretend it isn't -- and just because the job is easy doesn't mean it's not stressful.
