20-Something Dotcom CEO at McDonald's

I was a 20-something dotcom ceo that went to work the counter at mcdonald's by scott heiferman (12/00) background: 5/94: graduated from the university of iowa 5/94-4/95: "interactive marketing frontiers" at sony 4/95-10/99: founder/ceo i-traffic (acquired by agency.com 10/99) 10/99-10/01: chairman, i-traffic (an agency.com company) 10/00-10/00: counterperson, mcdonald's (4th & broadway, nyc) more about me why i got a job at mcdonald's: i spend a lot of time with bankers, lawyers, internet freaks, corporate wonks, and other people living strange lives. as a good marketing guy, that's a bad thing. and as a practicing anti-consumerist, that's a bad thing. i got a job at mcdonald's to help get back in touch with the real world. also, after over 6 groveling years in the internet whirlwind, i wanted to experience a profitable, well-oiled, multi-billion-dollar machine. and i deserved a break today. how i got the job: I walked in, filled out an application, and was interviewed. i was truthful. in my interview, the manager (ralph) asked if i can handle a fast-paced, intense environment. i said yes. he looked at my resume and asked about my current part-time job as chairman at i-traffic. i said, "it's an internet thing." he said "ok" and then asked me for my waist size.

На изображении показана старая веб-страница с фотографией молодого сотрудника McDonald's в форме и подробным рассказом о его карьере. Автор пишет, что после нескольких лет среди банкиров, юристов и интернет-специалистов устроился работать за прилавок, чтобы снова почувствовать связь с «реальным миром». Шутка строится на абсурдном контрасте между должностью председателя интернет-компании и обычной работой в McDonald's.
