McDonalds waging war over “McJob”
Gee, maybe you should think about WHY the word is around, guys:
The company is leading a “word battle” on behalf of the wider service sector. The object, according to David Fairhurst, a senior vice-president of McDonald’s, is to change the definition of McJob to “reflect a job that is stimulating, rewarding … and offers skills that last a lifetime.”
The Oxford English Dictionary, which specifically notes that McJobs are “unstimulating,” claims that they track the popular usage of words, and do not respond to pressure from interest groups. </em>
Crap food, crap jobs. Is anyone confused? I thought not.
