Re: 54,000 new jobs. Half of them hamburger flippers?
McDonalds does have a very high turnover rate, but not from losing jobs. It's from people finding better ones. McDonalds doesn't like it, but that's kind of the point of an entry-level job, isn't it?
I should make it clear that there's nothing wrong with "hamburger-flipping" jobs. It's where you start life out, unless your dad is boss. I just remember all the flap from liberals about "McJobs" back when the unemployment rate was less than half what it is now.
