I read on the AP wire earlier this week that the recent McDonald’s “Hiring Day” resulted in the hiring of 50,000 new burger-flippers,<\/a> news that was of course deliriously cheered by the Beltway Insider crowd as part of its collective pants-pissing<\/a> over the creation of 230,000 new jobs last month — nearly half of which were on the order of Wal-Mart greeters, Home Depot cashiers, the aforementioned burger flippers, and other assorted shit-wage jobs. So, I decided it was time to redesign the Great Seal Of The United States<\/a> to reflect current American reality.<\/p>\n

The news that really grabbed me, however, was a report from a McDonald’s hiring day in Cleveland.<\/a> At one of many such events designed to portray McDonald’s as a decent place to work, a fight broke out between two women; the fight escalated to the point where one of the women ended up hitting three people with a car before fleeing the scene.<\/p>\n

I’m lovin’ it.<\/p>\n
