Workers MELTDOWN After Rat-Infested McDonald's Closes in Oakland Doom Loop
Manage episode 523261849 series 2792715
Oakland's last McDonald's just closed, and the employees are protesting... after they helped expose the rat infestation that made it famous. You can't make this stuff up! The same workers who leaked videos of rats running around the kitchen are now demanding their jobs back, striking against a business that's already shuttered. Meanwhile, In-N-Out, Shake Shack, and countless other businesses have fled Oakland citing safety concerns - gunshots through windows, stabbings, armed robberies. But sure, let's blame it all on the rodents. These employees worked there for up to 17 years watching the neighborhood deteriorate, filmed themselves exposing health violations, then act surprised when the franchise owner pulls the plug. Is anyone shocked that protesting your own workplace conditions leads to unemployment? What did they expect when they turned their employer into a viral meme? The real story isn't about rats - it's about a city so dysfunctional that even profitable businesses can't survive. Hit that subscribe button if you're tired of watching common sense get devoured faster than a Happy Meal in a rat-infested kitchen!
