Why is working for fast food restaurants such hell?

I don't understand why managers think they can get away with screaming at employees and playing favoritism. Especially if the employee is African American. I've seen one African American employee doing all the work by their self and the other employees AND managers letting them struggle to death. The managers would scream at the African American employee and belittle them. Is it a common thing with fast food restaurants to cause such a prison like environment. The workers always have an attitude and get angry at you for asking questions. Which leaves you to struggle and get screamed by customers also. This is the 4th time I had to deal with abusive managers and employees who bullied me. It doesn't matter if it a juice bar or McDonald's,Wendy's, Taco Bell, El pollo loco, or any other stupid fast food chain. Corporation doesn't seem to care nor does franchised owned restaurants. Is there any reason why managers and workers at these restaurants can't learn respect. Many people had told me I have good customer service and told me they have never seen good customer service at any of these stupid food chains. Is there a reason for the bullying in these restaurants?!?! Why are so many of them racist?!?!

    FRANCHISE'S are different from Corporate.

    I never had a problem at McDonald's in 1998, hahahaha.

    They actually stepped me up. which broke my friends and I from doing the late shift.

    We were "The Four Horsemen".

    Used to hang outside and toss ketchup packets from the bubble to the Drive up window on lazy nights.

    I quit that job soon after.

    Get a job at a Gas Station, now that every pump is prepay, that's like the laziest job.

    Because there's 3 meals a day and most people get hungry around the same time which in turn keeps you hopping whether you like it or not.

    Nobody is happy, even the managers are not making that much money so they’re pissed. 😡 it is neither a glamorous job or a job that is filled with gratitude but it is a good experience for a first job which most people usually experience. I have never seen any examples of racism in fast food restaurants. However, if you think you have an issue, contact the NAACP.

    You'll find that the time goes by faster if you actually do some work.  You've been there long enough that you should know what needs to be done, so do it instead of waiting for the manager to have to tell you to do it.  When you  go home you don't have to worry about taking your job with you.  You best enjoy it while you can.

    The elite is faking that they took the real vaccine; the real vaccine will cause spiritual and physical damage. When will the official churches start praying for the false prophet? Orthodox Christian three hand signs are different than Buddhist mudras. Ecumenism = 263 heresies; each heresy leads to hell. Orthodoxy = the only true faith; Roman Catholics tried one cup - one spoon ritual and got sick with Bubonic plague; if heresy enters Orthodox monastery then monks/nuns will get sick with flu/tuberculosis (for instance); Orthodox churches who closed for COVID or had disposable cups/spoons or dipped spoon into alcohol are no longer brides of Christ (now they serve Satan and honor Satan's new COVID religion). Don’t go into UFO to be “healed” by evil demons; demons never do good. SSN is written as a barcode/QRcode; then it's put into a chip; chip is put into vaccine; chipped people are influenced (by super computers) to receive grey plastic card World Passport with no name on it (but when they stretch their hands to get it, gov't clerk presses secret button to administer the unforgivable green 666 tattoo by isotope rays). If you reject mark of the beast (by hiding within a 10-15 people group according to saints Gabriel Urgebadze and Seraphim of Sarov), then your direct ancestors go to heaven (according to saint Vyacheslav Krasheninnikov from Ural). First vaccine shuts off your immune system; second vaccine gives you diseases; third vaccine puts your immune system back and it will start fighting the diseases and will cause death. Saint Paisios from Mount Athos said that the devil wants to deceive the rich with freemasonry, poor with communism, and believers with ecumenism. Elpidios Vagianakis said that there will be seven “mark of the beast” vaccines; reject all of them! Documents are from Satan; burn all the documents that you can find. Electronics will be used to track you. Even old broken unplugged 1970 TV set will show the evil flying antichrist using Tesla's ether. Don’t go into UFO to be “healed” by evil demons; demons never do good; always pray the Jesus prayer or to saints who help right away (like saint Vyacheslav Krasheninnikov according to whom if you reject mark of the beast, then your direct ancestors go to heaven); forgive me.

    Source(s): Money will be electronic. Gov't will say someone lost their card or it was stolen; now, they have "solution" aka "mark of the beast system"... because no one will steal your hand/forehead. Remember Book of Revelation says: mark of the beast = permanent hell; forgive me.

    Fast-food places attract human garbage. You need quit and work at a 5-star restaurant.

    Perhaps you should be looking at your self instead?

    If you keep having problems with the managers at the places you work, maybe THEY aren't the problem. From my armchair YOU seem to be the common denominator.
