[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]CF hires better employees. They would rather hire a high school student for 8 hours than someone who needs to work 40 hours a week. It was great environment for our upper-class kid for the 4 months he spent there. he worked after school and had most of Sat and all day sundays off. The McDonalds next door had cranky employees.

They offer need-based scholarships to their HS employees who go to college.[/quote]
They hire cheaper, more manipulable employees, you mean. [/quote]

You seem confused.  Every time I go there the employees are bright, cheerful, and engaged.  I can’t think of any other retail establishment where the employees pay as much attention or are as friendly and great to interact with.  I have no idea how much they pay, but they hire good people and treat them well.  [/quote]

I always wonder how they find these bright, friendly, competent kids because so many kids are the exact opposite. They know what they are doing with hiring.[/quote]

The one my son works at required 3 interviews and knowledge tests to be hired.  A full day of off-site training/final interview.  New employees are trained for months.  It takes even more training to move up.  Employees are monitored and counseled by senior team members.  Employees must be recommended and mentored for promotion s.  Cashiers aren't trying to support their three kids on an entry level job.  They expect their part-time employees to be in high school or college

The McDonald's by me offers drive thru interviews & hire on the spot.  [b]Employees might be on the cash register on their own after an hour.[/b][/quote]
That literally happened to my brother! He filled out an application, submitted it, and they put him at a register with NO training. He never went back.[/quote]
