McJobs at mcstate.com!

I was watching TV the other day and at the bottom of a regular McDonald’s ad I saw the URL of http://mcstate.com. I was surprised to find that the website was hub for directing folks to careers at the golden arches.

I decided to travel through the website and I found that it was simple to find open jobs in your local neighborhood. So in this tough economy if you are need of job and you haven’t thought of fast food, then check out a McJob, you never know where it may take you.

Side Note:
The Oxford English Dictionary currently describes a McJob as “an unstimulating low-paid job with few prospects” It first appeared in the online version of the Oxford English Dictionary in March 2001. In the UK, McDonalds are inviting its customers to sign petition books in its outlets , or alternatively via a new website, entitled Change The Definition.
