McDonald's is our way of life!
An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
Not exactly my first choice for a place to dine, but Mickie-Ds sure makes changes to move with the market tastes and trends fast. With an already crowded pool of fast eateries available, people desire something a little more upscale, and Mickie is quick to respond. Which other eater has gotten rid of Styrofoam as quickly as Mickie? No one. They lead the field at eco-friendliness, not that many people here care, but the youngsters (primary school kids and younger) are drawn in by those luvvy-duvvy animal care issues that touch them at their hearts. McDonald's is truly a great business model. If I were to live all over again, I'd start my career right after O levels by joining this hamburger restaurant and work my way up their corporate ladder. Its worthwhile. Cheer! ps. BTW, the title of this thread was taken from the title of Mickie-Ds song on TC ads from long ago. http://ottawacitizen.com/news/local-...ncluding-chefs McReinvention: McDonald's hiring 300 in Ottawa, including "chefs" Joanne Laucius, Ottawa Citizen More from Joanne Laucius, Ottawa Citizen Published on: March 2, 2016 | Last Updated: March 2, 2016 4:48 PM EST Next week, you’ll be able to bring a date to McDonald’s without looking like a cheapskate. Ottawa will be the first market in Ontario to completely switch over to the fast food chain’s “experience of the future” concept. Time-pressed customers will still be able to get a Big Mac and fries, but the new hamburger customization option allows customers to build their own burger at a kiosk with a touch screen that offers options including five types of cheese, 12 toppings from guacamole to mushrooms, specialty breads plus a lettuce wrap and nine sauces. Overwhelmed customers can choose from pre-selected combinations. After ordering, customers sit down with a locator device and a server will bring their meal to them. Some 25 restaurants in the Ottawa area — those large enough to support two kitchens, plus a bakery for making pastries —will be moving into the new model starting March 7. It will cost about $250,000 for each restaurant to make the switch. It also means 300 new jobs for Ottawa. McDonald’s will be hiring for three positions it never had before: server; “guest experience leader” (essentially a host or hostess, but the job description says candidates must be outgoing people who will be responsible for “creating magic moments”) as well as chef, who will be the lead cook in the custom burger kitchen. Edmonton moved 11 restaurants to the new model last fall — the process takes only a couple of days — and there are a handful of Toronto-area build-your-own McDonald’s franchises. The chain is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2017, and the new menus and table service will be available across Canada by the end of next year. McDonald’s isn’t reinventing itself for fun. The move comes from financial pressures and changes in taste as consumers turn to “fast casual” chains like Panera Bread and Chipotle Mexican Grill that offer fresh, customized food and a slightly more upscale experience. “In the past few years, the world moved faster outside the business then inside,” McDonald’s chief brand officer Steve Easterbrook said last May when outlining the company’s turnaround plan. “The business cannot ignore what customers are saying when the message is clear: We’re not on our game.” Click here to view the whole thread at www.sammyboy.com. |
