What's a Crew Trainer Anyway?

As a Crew Trainer, I'm like a big brother or sister to the new kids on the block. I help new team members learn the ropes and show them how we do things the McDonald's way. It's a big deal because I'm the link between the regular crew and the managers.

My job is super important for keeping our restaurant running smoothly. I make sure everyone knows how to make our food just right and treat our customers with a smile. Plus, I help keep the team spirit high and make sure we're working efficiently.

The best part? Being a Crew Trainer is often the first step to becoming a manager. How cool is that?

What I Do Every Day

Here's a peek into what I do as a Crew Trainer:

  2. I show everyone the right way to do things, like preparing food and helping customers.
  3. I make sure we're following all the food safety rules.
  4. I help out the shift managers when things get busy.

It's a lot of responsibility, but I love it!
