If it were my child, I might be offended...
but as an innocent bystander I'll say "Brilliant"! It sure gets a point across.
but then managing a McDonalds is not a horrid thing to aspire to.

So it's a not quite sure how to react to it from me. I'm a Libra Wink

Managing a McD's would require math

I would attach a public school teacher's application to the test...

Since math was my most hated subject in high school, I think I'd rather be serving up french fries instead. Confused

I don't have problem with this per se, assuming the kid is old enough to get the message.

The problem I do have though, is this notion that working at McDonald's is a metaphor for failure. I don't see it that way. I see kids who want to do things with their life, that is what I see in our Che Mac.

Further, when I got outta school, I moved to Houston, TX, because someone mailed my pay check there. I drove down in a Uhaul, Just to pick it up.

When I got there, I met this eclectic group of people, right outside my door.

Horticulturist - Champagne, IL
Caterpillar Sales, Janesville, WI
Electrical Sales, Akron, Ohio
Geologist, Brooklyn, NY
Subway developer, Pittsburgh, PA [I can tell you where the 1st one is]
Teacher, a coonass, he tried to hide it Laughing
An asst Manager, McDonald's, NJ

Pete had an album collection over 1000. He was highly intelligent, and he was serious about his job. He moved to Houston TX to do that job. So I get a bit tired of the lame stereotype about McDonald's. Give some folks some frigg'n credt!
