Ever wondered what an "entry level career opportunity" is?

.

McDonalds are trying to use their corporate clout to have the word McJob removed from the Oxford English Dictionary. McLawyers are arguing in British  high court that the term, which refers to an "entry level career opportunity," (the Department of Work and Pensions phrase not mine) and which most of us take as a colloquialism for a crappy, dead end job, demeans their staff.

How very Mc Caring of them. Unless of course there is a Mchidden agenda. After all is is, is it not, the McDonalds McBrand that is being McDissed, not the McWorkers who are merely McVictims of twenty - five years of disastrous education and economic policy under McNeocon governments. These years have resulted in more people being employed in menial tasks in the service sector than work in the once great manufacturing industries of the industrialised west or in agriculture. What a McTriumph for McFriedmanism..

I see a McSymbiosis here though. As successive govrernments on both sides of the McPond have implemented McPolicies that suppress unions, erode workers rights and allow corporate interests to do more or less what the McHell they like, McDonalds have brainwashed the McYoung with their misleading McAdvertising and made them think it is cool to eat brain rotting concoctions of McLips, McArseholes, McColouring and McFlavour enhancers until they are too dumb the demand a fair McDeal.

McWorkers of the McWorld unite! You have nothing to lose but your McJobs.

Fancy seeing me in Mc Court Ronald?

Go on, make my McDay.
