Does anyone work at Hungry Jacks?? (1 Viewer)

[kennychan222]

I am not really sure how working condition is. But Hungry Jack may be the best food store because its salary is at least $8 per hour for non-manager job. Many teenagers consider hungry jack is their first job. Avaragely $10 - 12.

In Wollongong, its salary and working condition should be reasonable. Plus I am 19, my salary will be higher.

I've a friend who works in Ice Link only gets paid $9 per hour because she is 17.

Hungry Jacks manager = $16.95..... no joke.

It must vary from store to store because I know of people that I go to school with complaining about having to take their maccas uniform with them to school coz their shift was straight after school. But I have also heard that some maccas stores have changerooms as well. So it must depend on the store.

Our store has a change room, but no toilets, cos it's in a Food Court in Westfields. We still take our uniforms home and it's our responsibility to keep them neat and clean [which is kind of a disadvantage I think]

I've been working at HJ for 4 and 1/2 years now, the pay isn't great, and I'll agree the older you get the less shifts you recieve as a crew member. Thing of it as you being the owner, why would you pay someone $14.00 when you could pay someone $6.00 to do the same job, don't be stupid. However if you actually worth while, they'll offer you a management position.

$6 an hour? Who'd work for that little pay? I'm 16, and I get 8.83 w/ Casual Loading at Maccas.

yeah i started hungry jacks today, it was surprising really good. Maybe because i've never worked anywhere else and I don't know what working conditions are actually like, but it was actually quite enjoyable.
Maybe because the other team people were really nice and helpful or maybe because I got the gist of it quickly, but it was quite fun..
and i was earning money while having fun, weird but i'm not complaining
going in tomorrow as well, but does anyone know, do we get paid double time on sundays?

 

[sf_diegoxrock]

you should get double pay on Sunday, or if your boss is tight (like mine was at a certain "fast food" place) its 1.5x

just curious, how's the pay @ Hungry Jacks

and don't you find it really hot/oily?

 

[aimhigh10]

wow double pay hopefully
the pay for me (because im under 16) is like $5.50 an hour, pretty shit i know but the time passes surprising fast
ive been mainly working on counters, so i dont get too sweaty, but i can see that the people cooking/people near the heat chute get pretty sweaty occasionally..

lol just quit when it stops being fun
