McDonald's staff 'quit' en masse leaving just a note for bosses in empty restaurant

A TikTok video has emerged showing an entire crew of McDonald's workers apparently quitting midway through their shift

More than 2.3million people have watched the video, which shows a look around an unstaffed McDonalds. The absence of any staff is seemingly explained with a note.

That note says: "Everyone quit, we're closed."

The camera then pans around the back of the kitchen to demonstrate not a soul is there, with no customers waiting and no orders on the screen ready to be collected.

The eerie video, posted by user @zoey.isback, was captioned: "Well that happened today and it was so funny" alongside a crying face and laughing face emoji.

She then explained in the comment section the reason that the whole team quit that day, after it was suggested it was a row over pay.

"Y'all, we didn't quit from our pay," she wrote.

"The store was ran by teenagers and it was a terrible work space. The higher ups had trouble helping us when needed."

She continued: "It's a bad job to start with but that's where most teenagers start for experience so that's where I put myself."

Another video posted later on gave more depth into the story, as Zoey documented her shift in more detail, complaining about her bosses.

She captioned the post: "Story time? Here's a little more I barely recorded that day that's why. But idk why y'all are so interested on what happened."
