Gotta love the McDonald's business model: 1. Become a property investment company. 2. Own only the most profitable 5% of stores. Franchise the rest. 3. Obtain a long-term lease or own the land where the restaurants are built, while the franchisee pays exorbitant rent for a 20-year period plus ongoing percentage of any profits made. 4. The franchisee also pays for the signs and interior decor of the restaurant, while getting innovative and operational help from their parent company aka mass advertising. 5. Food quality and value is the last consideration to concern themselves with. This structure ensures that McDonald’s revenue stream is stable and predictable, while maintaining high profitability and focusing on keeping lowest operational costs 💰😮
Franchises are crooks too, they only buy these stores to make money, not to provide a quality service. McDonald’s and franchise owners deserve each other.
@@mrmustard1300 doubt if they only have one franchise store the franchisee makes much money. Their costs and overheads are horrendous. Any franchisee making good money would have multiple stores. Plus a lot of employees seem to have bad experiences working at McDonald's....
I mean its no secret, that has been their business model from the start. Selling food was always just their way to pay the mortgage on the land under it.
Great show Greg. Just got on to your channel a month ago and have been binging since. I have an answer to a question about Americans you've asked "why we call it a chicken sandwich?" In the states, anything ground(minced) and formed into a patty is a burger (chicken burger, lamb burger, etc.) Correct me please if I'm wrong but for you anything on a bun is a burger? Again, well done and keep up the good work.
@Ryan-oh8rq Having worked in retail and hospitality for so many years, I'm only ever polite to customer service workers. If someone spat in your food damn what did you do???

Well good on you for standing up to them.A Little Caesar's manager refused to sell us the pizza right on the menu ad because he thought it was too expensive to make so we went to another location,got our pizza and I reported that guy for false advertising.
As a former Manager at Maccas, they should’ve let you keep that one and make you a fresh one. At the very least just a remake and through the other away(waste). I must say though, the standards have completely fallen apart. Wait times are a joke and customer service is a long gone tradition.
Wait times are a result of the ever increasingly complex menu making BOH fundamentally more inefficient (mcdonalds in the 1950's were capable of pumping out triple digit cheeseburgers in a minute because that's all that was sold). The fact that corporate are tight asses who won't replace equipment unless absolutely necessary does not help.

I can't remember the last time I got bacon on a Macca's burger... BBQ Bacon Angus Burger? No bacon. Double Quarter Pounder and paid extra for bacon? No bacon. Happy Australia Day all!
I got the Aussie Angus Deluxe today, and they didn't give me bacon 😢. The only thing deluxe about it was the beetroot. It was basically a Classic Angus with beetroot added for $1.60.
@@Jerry_gold ? The store is like a franchisee store and the franchiser is most likely muslim or otherwise it's just more profitable to not have bacon to bring in those customers. Hate the game, not the players.
mate check your video back mate they have given you the same burger back notice when you lift the beetroot up that have a slice of beetroot is still there and they took a little chunk out of your bun to make it look like a different burger the dogs
Mate! I saw this today so i had to go find one and try it. I reckon it might be the best Maccas burger I've had. Beetroot and bacon were there but all the lettuce somehow ended up around the burger instead of inside. Anyway, top marks from me. 👍
$11.35 for a hamburger? What? I thought inflation was bad here in the States! No bacon….send-it back, Grego….you got screwed ! They should have given you a brand new one! If you tried to put beets on a hamburger over here they’d burn McDonald’s down! On a scale from 1-10….I’d give that a -1
Happy Australia Day, Dear Down Under, from your American cousin. I'll apologize for the McDonald's ahead of time. Just stick with the Filet O'Fish. It's probably the healthiest thing on the menu anyhow.
Somehow it is not Australia Day promoting America Food "MacDonald". You could have fried some Sausages and delivered to us the old Australian Day tradition.!
Can see staff asking Manager, ‘do we make this again’. Manager: No, lets add a extra cold piece of beetroot to the cold burger. Should make customer happy,
I was there when it was brought to the back for repairs. We love it when they come back and actually fight over who is gonna fix it. By fix it I mean really mess with it. You probably didn’t notice the smell of buttcrack huh? And I bet you didn’t notice the phlegm we all coughed up for it. Yes, we enjoy our work. Thanks for coming back!😎
What tomato? 😮 "The Aussie Angus Deluxe comes with an Aussie Angus beef patty, bacon, beetroot, chunky tomato relish, aioli, cheese and lettuce served on a classic bun."
The fact that they just stuffed the extra beetroot and bacon in and handed you back the same burger is crazy

@@coreybarton8112 not in australia, its remade fresh if there was a error. Poor form to add to a burger and risk it being cold.

HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY .
A smart mcmanager? Would be working elsewhere! 😂
I know.
Just wishful thinking.@@multioptioned
I don't tink it was fresh that's why the bun was damaged. They just flipped the lid and tossed in Beetroot and bacon
You'll have a better chance of Maccas bringing out a McRib that actually has McBones

I tried it 2day 🇳🇿🆗️ and YES it's good!!👍

Good one mate ❤👍🍻
Probably added some extra “sauce” as well.

That was the first one! It was "fixed" not replaced free of charge as it should have been.
Maccas haven't got any of my hard earned money in over 10 years. That time line period will continue
63 years for me. Keep up the good work.
