In today's random video, we have a guy named Parker Kane creating amazing dubstep sounds from his McDonald's cup. It's pretty awesome!

Guy Goes Out With A Bang When Fired From McDonald's
A gentleman in St. Paul, Minnesota apparently expressed some disappointment when he was fired from his McDonald's job, at least if the video you'll see below is true.
It is NSFW, because of some rather blunt languaged used upon learning the unfortunate news he would need to find another job
Boy, it sure is a scene, though!

Woman In McDonald's Takes Bad Mood To New Heights
 |
| Watch this woman get VERY angry and make a fool of herself |
In what must be the most overdone example of this, I give you the comically awful tableau of a woman in McDonald's who seems to be disputing a $6 order. And she WANTS HER 40 CENTS BACK!!!!!!!!!
This goes on for three minutes. And you thought YOU had a bad day.
If I worked at that McDonald's I would have thrown a McFlurry in her face, just to make her chill.
I dunno. It seems like people go to McDonald's with the express desire to be angry, judging from how many YouTube videos there are of such things.
Still, I think out of control angry people are funny. Hope you do, too, but watch it. The language is definitely NSFW.

Job Hunting Tip: Don't Wave Gun At Hiring Manager
You have to admit, Tevin Monroe, 31, at least has some ambition.
He was searching for a job and walked into a Norfolk, Virginia McDonald's and asked for a job application.
The manager there said, nope, you have to apply on line for a job at McDonald's (Most jobs are like that nowadays)
Monroe didn't like the manager's answer. He wanted to fill out an application NOW. To emphasize his point, he lifted up his shirt and showed the manager a gun, according to TV station WAVY.
Well, if you put it that way, the manager decided, she'd get a paper application, she told Tevin. Would he mind sitting down for a moment while she got it? He was fine with that.
Since there were no paper job applications in the building, the manager called the police. Tevin was still waiting for the application when the cops arrived and arrested him.
Apparently, he didn't get the job. So if you want a job at McDonald's, go on line and apply for the opening in Norfolk. Gun toters need not apply.

McDonald's To Low Wage Employees: Don't Forget To Give Your Au Pair and Nanny A Christmas Bonus!
Sometimes, the best thing to keep in mind is if you want to help, don't.
McDonald's needs that advice.
It seems like every other day, some news trickles out on how they are giving their low wage employees financial advice. (My advice is, hard as it is to do, all you McDonald's employees out there, keep trying to find a job with higher wages)
Anyway, much of the source of McDonald's advice comes from the McSource line, which is McDonald's way of offering helpful lifehacking hints to their employees.
The latest installment gives their often minimum wage employees advice on how much to tip their au pairs, housekeepers, pool cleaners, massage therapists, garage attendants and personal fitness trainers for the holidays.
Because it's no problem affording all those people, and the holiday bonuses on a $7.50 hourly wage with a limit of 30 hours a week, right?
McDonald's tells CNBC that the advice comes from the etiquette experts at the Emily Post Institute in Vermont. They ought to know what's the proper way to acknowledge employees at the holidays, right?
Well, we can't find anything wrong with Emily Post's advice, either. But I wonder if Post would consider it rude to mock low wage employees, however unintentionally, with this advice for people who have money, in other words, people who aren't McDonald's employees.
And I have to note it wasn't Post's idea to give this advice to McDonald's employee. It seems some contractor working for McDonald's lifted the Emily Post etiquette advice from some other side. After CNBC's embarrassing little questions about this matter, the "holiday gift to your au pair" advice has apparently disappeared.
This little crisis I guess is an improvement to previous advice the low wage McDonald's workers got. That was to return the unopened Christmas gifts they got and cash them in, to supplement their poverty level pay.
Just a little Scrooge-like, no?
Before that, McDonald's helpfully provided sample budgets for its workers so they can figure out how to stretch their measly dollars. The budgets included no money for heat (take THAT, Minnesota McDonald's workers) and only $20 a month for health care.
No wonder so many fast food workers have been going on strikes this week, despite the fact there's no real organized union backing them.
I remember back in the 1980s or 1990s, when politicians railed against "welfare queens" who got government benefits they didn't qualify for or deserve.
I totally agree that only people truly in need should get a helping hand from the government. So why are the corporate CEOs and such getting rich in part by paying their employees so little that they can get food stamps?
My tax dollars, then, are going to enrich the already rich because they're benefitting from food stamps by not paying their employees enough. What, some millionaire or billionaire needs my help to give the annual Christmas bonus to their pool boy at his mansion in Barbados?
Here's my Christmas gift to myself: No eating at McDonald's for me. It'll be a healthy choice anyway.
