Hello,

This letter is a followup to my visit this morning where I returned my two uniforms and hat. I am resigning from my position as Crew Member from McDonald's because I have been given another career opportunity which better suits my set of skills and abilities, and puts them to better use.

I am also resigning because of a few other reasons which has to do with my first day of training at McDonald's on Cortaro, Tucson. To list a few of my grievances, they are:

-I was not given proper training, and was essentially "thrown into the fire" that is early morning rush, and lunch rush. My first contact with what I believe was the manager (a middle-aged Hispanic whose name I never received) was very unpleasant. He never introduced himself to me, and he left me to be "trained" by three ladies who were not qualified to train (their English was near incomprehensible, and they were being rushed to push out orders with hardly any time to spare to teach a new Crew Member). Needless to say, my eagerness to learn and improve was quelled, and the best I could do was watch and observe, not knowing the methods and thinking behind each action that was necessary to ensure a job well done.

-I was forced to take my 30 minute break 2 hours into the shift when it was not required. After 2 measly hours, I still had plenty of energy to move around, but I still had to take it. This left me working for 5 hours nonstop with hardly any time to relax. This was very unpleasant, and I left the day with sore feet and an aching right arm.

-Things were not as I had thought they would be. After receiving "Gray Management Policies 2018", I had a good idea of what to expect while working at McDonald's. Immediately, I saw friction between reality and what was written. What I was promised was not given, and that left a sour aftertaste especially after my first day.

-My scheduling is ambiguous. On the day of my 1st shift (September 20, 2018 - 8AM-4PM), I was told whilst working in the middle of a shift that I would need to attend a mandatory meeting at the new restaurant on Ina at 4PM. I had plans to pick up a friend of mine later today at 4:30 after my shift, but I had to tell him I would be late because of this meeting that I received hardly any advanced notice for. Not only that, but the mandatory meeting only made things even more confusing by conflicting with information I had been given prior. I was never given a full schedule, and from what it seems, I would just be told to go to my next shift with only a day's notice, and only one day ahead of time, hardly any room to predict and plan the future and the rest of my week.

With that being said, - I know it's quite a lot for only a singular day of working, but I wanted to provide as much detail as possible so you know what had happened, and what my perspective of things were - I'm sad to leave this job that I had been so eager to start. I had high expectations, and was looking for a fun time, but one single day had ruined my vision of what I had hoped to be an enjoyable future with McDonald's.

I appreciate everything that you and the company have given me so far, and I am grateful for the experience that you have shown me, but I believe this is the end of my career here at McDonald's.

I hope you are able to fill my position swiftly, and I am sorry for not being able to give you any more advanced notice of my resignation. Rather than delay this decision, - one that I had spent a whole day mulling over - I believe it was best to end things before more time and resources were invested in me, and before this would have an even larger impact.

With regards,

Tai P. Truong
