McDonald’s TikTok reveals secrets customers may not know

In a now-viral TikTok post, content creator georgiazacki decided to run through a few things that not every customer will know.

Georgia says that she’s only posting this information now because she doesn’t work there anymore. She continues: “If we tell you we can’t do McFlurries or milkshakes, it’s not because we have run out. It’s a lie.”

The TikTok video says that often the staff cannot be bothered as it’s busy, and she also says if the machine hasn’t been cleaned out – that’s also a common reason. On top of that, Georgia claims that the workers don’t even check who is collecting orders at times.

Her video has racked up over 400,000 likes at the time of writing, with over three million views.

In the comments, users started to ask other questions about the day-to-day at McDonald’s.

One asked: “Do you wash your hands after handling money at the till before touching someone else’s food?”

A second said: “A lot of my friends in sixth form worked at Maccies too but all different stores and we all had the exact same experience.”

Another suggested that the things noted in the clip aren’t done at all locations. They said: “I used to work for Maccies and hearing stuff like this literally makes my laugh cos my Maccies was not like yours at all.”

Whether or not all of these points raised in the video will be relevant to your local fast-food restaurant remains unknown, but it’s certainly interesting to hear what goes on behind the scenes.
