    You don't have to implement all the McDonald's corporate jargon at the one you manage

    I'd be shocked if that phrase was used anywhere near a brick and mortar McDonald's.

    I don't mind when it is used every once in a while ... and particularly if it is used in a way of being more of a comedic relief.

    What I hate is when seemingly everybody talks about what they have to do is that they have an action item for this and an action item for that like it's super important. We all have fucking work to do. We all have things to get done. I don't need to hear you describe something as a fucking action item to know that you have shit to get done.

    Fascinating! Tell me more. Also be sure to let me know how your fantasy football team is doing.

    I'd tell you to go fuck off ... but then again I can sit back and laugh at the fact that you get to put up with Steve Alford as your basketball coach combined with the 10% state income tax rate that those in the beautiful state of California get to watch their local government mismanage.

    Have a good weekend!!!
