They are probably equally difficult, mentally and physically [and don’t discount the mental and emotional labor each job requires - Charles might deal with **** customers but the mental anguish of food service is lesser than that of the mental anguish of talking yourself into another 12 hour shift doing the same repetitive tasks with rare variance... at least with people there’s room to be surprised/entertained] but bk is definitely the worse of two evils purely due to the customer service aspect.

*shrug*

It's definitely nastier. Like I said I've worked both and I'd say most BK workers wouldn't cut it. Most of the people the temps send us wash out within weeks. If you think it's so easy then you can easily get a job doing this kinda **** and you will make like twice what you make now.

Dunno why you guys are trying to fight me on this it's just common sense

Minimum wage workers make minimum wage cause that's how easy they are to replace

I don't think i was being defensive at all lol

Batlord tried to tell me that working fast food takes more intelligence and i just said nah it doesn't

I didn't start the dick measuring contest this time.

Sounds like your busy work is more rote than mine. You gonna tell me that loading cardboard onto a machine takes more mental energy than making food?

I'm telling you that neither job in terms of the grunt work/entry level position takes much intelligence at all. Anyone with a GED is capable of working at BK. It's not at all complicated.


Keeping all the orders straight and basic multitasking is the extent of the mental challenge you will face there.

At my job it's more down to troubleshooting the machine and keeping it running correctly. You can't just throw the cardboard in there any which way you please, you have to pay attention to the weight, the angle, the motions of the machine.... **** can and will **** up quite easily. It's hard for me to explain without you having any first hand experience but trust me if the task was simple enough it would already be automated. It's areas that can't so easily be generalized and programmed that are left to human workers cause the robotic engineers haven't gotten to the stage of automating that yet.
