Low wages for the people that make ALL the money for the company, and now they're charged for that pay.
http://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/01/b...nk-fees-hurt-workers.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0Paid via Card, Workers Feel Sting of Fees
A growing number of American workers are confronting a frustrating predicament on payday: to get their wages, they must first pay a fee.
.............
Devonte Yates, 21, who earns $7.25 an hour working a drive-through station at a McDonalds in Milwaukee, says he spends $40 to $50 a month on fees associated with his JPMorgan Chase payroll card.
Its pretty bad, he said. Theres a fee for literally everything you do.
........
For Natalie Gunshannon, 27, another McDonalds worker, the owners of the franchise that she worked for in Dallas, Pa., she says, refused to deposit her pay directly into her checking account at a local credit union, which lets its customers use its A.T.M.s free. Instead, Ms. Gunshannon said, she was forced to use a payroll card issued by JPMorgan Chase. She has since quit her job at the drive-through window and is suing the franchise owners.
I believe every word of this. MacDonalds is an exploiter of people, and the crap they sell can kill you. Bloomberg says MacDonalds earnings are down due to changes in the American diet. Couldn't be happier!
My friends there are plenty of fast food restaurants if that is what you want, you don't need MacDonalds.

This is an old story..Has nothing to do with Mc Donald's. It's the payroll processor. The worker's problem is with them....And the banks charging the fee.
No one likes bank fees. Banks have to be able to recoup their expenses for providing services.
People insist on free checking and other no or low pay services. So this is the result.
This is another example of business finding ways around government regulations so that it can protect itself.
Anybody notice that the radical left seems more outraged about minor stuff than usual? Anytime the administration gets in trouble the radical left becomes hysterical about a McDonald's employee getting screwed by the bank that supports the president.
Liberals are always in pursuit of the next 'cause'.
There are only three certain things in this world: death, taxes, and JPMorgan Chase perpetually being in trouble with regulators.

It has everything to do with McDonalds. McDonalds HIRES the payroll service. McDonalds can pay anyway they choose as long the way they choose doesn't violate the law. The payroll card violates the law.

Is this a franchise doing this or a corporate store. They all don't pay the same way.

Does it really matter? The fact is if a company uses a fee card they're breaking the law.
Any minimum wage bozo who manages to run up fees of $40 - $50 a month is too stupid to be handling money, period.

So, is it McDonalds or a franchise owner. Is it many stores or a few?
