Mickey D's is about to try to expunge dictionaries of "McJob."
There is nothing wrong with working for the Mick; but building thousands and putting so many of them in lower-grade neighborhoods (plus neglecting the food and the -- "atmosphere" for so long) allowed the notion of a bad job to sink in because the Mick was a bad place to work. And the chain hardly pays medical-industry wages. "McJob" will stick because it so pungently describes the too many menial jobs in our "service" economy.
