I don't know how it is in other countries, but here in Germany if you ask if someone goes to McDonald's most will say: "Yeach no!".
Funny thing though because they open every morning and new restaurants are sprouting up on a regular basis. Sometimes even they are so busy you have to wait in line!!!
And to add to all of this: this morning in the local paper a tiny article in the left hand corner - there where normally your hand would be holding the paper if not lying flat on a table! McDonald's actually made a bigger profit than the first quarter of 2007. And we are not talking thousands here - add a few zeros to that. Ok so it is in USD - but still! And if the statement is true that about 5% of this profit increase is due to the current exchange rate situation - then which Euro paying nation is actually going to McDonald's.
Honestly I wish my business would operate like that!!! No ones comes and yet my profits increase! Go figure!
But I have a secret - I do go to McDonald's (they have good coffee and even better fries). My daughter loves to go there. My brother takes my daughter and me out to McDonald's when we visit him in Munich. So I've outed myself. It is time that more of us just owned up to it!
