My first job was at McDonald's and I loved it after a few days.

I hooked family up with food, and if you work both kitchen (Back) and register (Front), you can make it a nice place to learn.

"The Bubble" (drive up) is fun, when you mess with the people.

Managers hear all you say, but get to know the manager and you are set.

I say apply...

Have fun, but Never spit on the burger, just because you can!

I worked at White Castle at 18 years old. It was my very first job, so it's OK. I'm sure the responsibilities at McDonald's is the same. Depending on the shift and time of day, there will be a busy workload. You will do some cashiering/drive thru, flipping burgers, and cleaning around the restaurant. They most likely will work around your schedule, since you are a student so you have time to focus on your homework and study. Not the greatest job in the world, but it will help prepare you for future ones and a job experience.
