What is with people who keep saying that fast food jobs are humiliating or degrading? A job’s a job. You work hard and you get paid. I work at a movie theater and sometimes I work at the concessions. I don’t find it degrading at all. Actually, I like it a whole lot better than tearing tickets (>_<) or sweeping the theaters. I think it’s actually fun working with food. What’s so bad with working at fast food restaurants?



What’s so degrading? The whole process.

Fast Food usually pay minimum wage with little to no benefits.

There is no sense of appreciation from the general public when you do something right, but goshdangit, if you give them a pickle and they ask for no pickle, you are suddenly worthless and berated by the customer and the supervisor.

The quality of work and the workers around you is usually subpar(not to stereotype…ok to stereotype).

It’s a dead end with no real opprotunity for decent advancement.
