This is not a depiction of a village, this is what happens when the village no longer exists and everyone has to live in isolation from any social safety nets. Or to put it another way, Neoliberalism.
Yes, but think of the shareholder value.
Wow you’re right. I’ll have 2 neoliberalisms please. Gonna max out those shareholder values 💪
Would you like to add genocide to that with just a few purchases from platforms owned by literal white supremacists?
Nah, in a village you’d see kids at work with parents sometimes too. Usually you’d have some kind of daycare situation, but sometimes that’s not an option.
I can totally see a village shop where the owner is there with a baby, and the kid kinda grows up in the shop.
The difference is that they’d own the shop tho…
We aren’t talking about rasing a kid in a literal village within a Neoliberal society. “It takes a village” is an idiom about how the entire community should help to properly raise a child.
The saying emphasizes that a child’s upbringing is a communal effort involving many different people and groups, from parents to teachers to neighbors and grandparents.
The whole idea underscores the belief that the collective involvement of a community is essential in achieving a certain goal or completing a task, like raising a kid.
Essentially, it’s a friendly reminder that asking for help with hard things is okay because many hands make light work.
I do think there is value in pointing out how even in the most horrid conditions humans have the capacity to be nice to each other
I don’t think I understand. Who is being nice in this picture? The manager for letting her employee work while they care for her daughter in a dangerous work environment prone to spills, slips, cuts, burns and other risks?
Don’t you think there should be a better solution?

As a former child, I agree.
While I’m certain the restaurant’s health standards are lax enough to permit it, children are peerless disease vectors. If a child is working there, you’re gambling with your health.

This is so fucking depressing.

Lazy ass baby
Fuck you Mcdonalds, pay a living wage. There’s always money in the CEO budget.
What are these comments? This isn’t good at all.
That kid not being in daycare is costing the economy probably 1k a month in child care fees. Not to mention the worker is probably being less efficient.
Imagine if you worked really hard to open some McDonald’s branches and the workers all started to bring their kids in. Workers these days have no sense of respect.
Yes, will someone please think of the shareholders?
You’re in Orphan Crushing Machine. The sarcasm here is thick! Don’t sweat it, this is a place for dark humor while we cope with the disaster that is our world.
The sarcasm here is thick!
It’s thickest in the comment above yours 😅

ok boomer
I suspect that is sarcasm.
The implication is she was how old when she got pregnant? Yikes. Can we talk about the $.00 Chocolate chip cookie
Combo pricing thing
She should be grateful! The protocol is to let her and her child starve, for the crime of contributing more humans to society.
That’s what you get for not being a Libertarian sociopath!
Oh, and we need to get the birth rate up!
Yeah but only the white birth rate, don’t forget

Very tangential, but isn’t the biweekly to weekly pay and american thing? My western country pays monthly too.
Well look, if Musk can do it, it must be good, right?
This village needs to be sacked and burned to the fucking ground.
Fuck, this one got me, the manager ‘let her work’? Just pick up her shift and tell her to go home ffs. The job isn’t that important, the managerial class is delusional.
I’m pretty sure this is rage bait. What fucking McDonald’s worker wears a hi-vis vest?
One that has to bring pickup orders out to people waiting in vehicles… while also carrying a child.
Won’t invest in a vest for the kid till she can sling mcnuggets.
Gotta crawl up that corporate latter!
Where do McDonald’s bring food out to waiting cars? I’ve never seen that.
Really? I’ve seen it pretty often when an order is going to take a minute and there’s cars in line behind the slow order.
They also do curbside order pickup, and are one of the only places I can think of where that makes sense (for food orders). Since their system is timed very precisely and already has a queue system, of a person says they want their order at 2, you just drop it in the prep queue the right amount of time beforehand. You also know approximately how many orders of which type you can process at once, so you can disable pickup slots when typical in person orders and booked orders get too close to the threshold.
Every other type of place just has to make the food early to avoid keeping you waiting, and it results in damp steamy food, inevitably.None of that had anything to do with what you were asking, I just went on a tangent. Some places do curbside pickup, particularly in cities.
In cities and anywhere else that they ever have more than one customer waiting for food at once
The village needs to learn about birth control. Fuck around and find out.
Where is her husband?
He’s back there fixing the ice cream machine.
