McDonalds was just trying to get ahead of what they thought was an inevitable wage increase so they had an excuse to price hike.

Damn, you let people live like this? -Ronald

Macca’s like other modern corporations raises the prices to “what the market will support” in order to maximise profit.

They raise the price until sales drop, then back off a bit. It’s about exploiting people’s desire for macca’s fast food to the greatest extent possible.

And you call them "Macca's" like they're your friend or something.

It’s what they are called in my country. Like “Micky D’s” in the US.

[-] Subverb@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

I don't call it Micky D's either. It's a corporate restaurant chain, not your little brother.

Dude, that's just how they call them in Australia. They do that with almost everything, McDonald's isn't getting any special attention.
Get over yourself.

Yeah bro, be sure to put some respect on the McDonald's name.

[-] Subverb@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Quite the opposite. Infantizing the name of a massive corporation makes them seem less like what they are. They're not your friend.
