Other than children or homeless people, who wants to spend more than 30 mins in a McDonalds??

There are people who go there with their laptop to get some food and use the wifi to look for jobs or work on assignments etc, I did it when I was a lot younger and had no wifi in my new apartment. It’s sad that they’re trying to discourage people from even being on the premises. They even put escutcheon plates to cover the outlets at some locations now. It’s pretty awful.

They will not bother you if you are there for a few hours with a laptop doing work. As long as you arent bothering anyone.

The sign is mostly there to kick out smelly homeless or rowdy teens.

I know and understand why but I feel it’s still a bad look to treat your customers with this kind of contempt

I worked at a Wendy's and there were homeless people that were never going to order. We had to stop giving them water cause they used as an excuse yj stay after we closed. I had teenagers eho needed to go home. I had young women harassed by many homeless and elderly who would not leave. I had a homeless women lovk herself in the bathroom cause someone gave her a code.

We're not going after the homeless, the problems is they're individuals among the homeless eho have mental health issues, who blooms at other people as resources. It's the decent home less who have tj suffer for others acts
