Take the win, FD.

This has nothing to do with McDonald's.

It's plainly just a McDonald's franchise, operating in a McDonald's store, adhering to strict McDonald's standards & procedures, hiring people to wear McDonald's uniforms who then sell items from the McDonald's menu.

McDonald's Admits To Union Busting Campaign

Except it is not actually McDonalds is it? Or even an employee of McDonalds?

The Unions are not good at much, but one thing they are good at is clickbait.

The topic title here on OzPol is misleading.

The actual article had a different title.

I’ve now changed the title of the topic with this post.

Indeed.

He had nothing to do with McDonald's.

It was just a McDonald's franchise, operating in a McDonald's store, adhering to strict McDonald's standards & procedures, hiring people to wear McDonald's uniforms who then sold items from the McDonald's menu.

No.

Ah. The building admitted to the union busting campaign.

Are you fairdinkum?

That's a monumental load of shyte statement.

A franchise is like a lease agreement .... the franchisee is still representing McDonalds.

His business decisions have reflected badly on McDonalds.

Do you condone his behaviour & business model? Roll Eyes

Yep. That’s true.

From the link in my previous post.

The former operator of a McDonald's franchise in South Australia has agreed to pay $275,000 in fines and penalties to end court action over a long-running anti-union campaign among employees.

I’ve changed the title of the topic (again).

You cannot trust union stooges like WK. You don't know what they will sacrifice for the cause.
