Would you get a "kid's job" as an adult if you could not find work (McDonald's, Burger King, etc.)?

Yes. Because when you need a paycheck, you need a paycheck.
-
money is money- andi f you work your way up the ladder those types of places pay real good
-
Yes. If I needed a job I'm not above working at a fast food place.
-
Definitely, even if I could reasonably afford to go without working for awhile. Working is good self-discipline, and during one's younger years in particular, it's wise to keep your hand in and your work habits in place.
-
Yes but I would start by trying to get in at a retail or grocery store, or gas station before pursuing fast food.
-
Only if the pay was enough to get by on. Minimum wage really isn't enough for most adults to live on.
-
I don't think of those as kids' jobs. I think of it as simple work or entry level employment. I'm sure many adults can do those jobs better and with greater care so it's terrific to to a good job at anything if you enjoy it and bring home money.
-
Yes
-
I would do whatever I had to do in order to put food on the table and pay the bills. I've had some jobs that shocked the hell out of my friends and family, but when all is said and done, they all supported and respected my choices.

I would not refuse a fast food job because I think that I am somehow too good for the work. I would not take the job because society would be better off without those places. Fast food is bad for the environment, workers, consumers and animals. However, this industry does create demand for some good paying jobs such as doctors, pharmacists and health insurers. I would work for fast food if I could pick what ingredients to use and what the menu is. I would make delicious and healthy meals. The bag for the food would also state "No animal was harmed in the making of this meal." But, an idea like this would make too much sense so I guess we are stuck with the crappy places that we have now.

if i needed to yea, I would. You have to work and I have too many bills to pay not to have a steady paycheck coming. I would try to do everything within my power to find a job. http://www.franchiseopportunities.com/

Yes! If I needed the money I wound take any job going!

I used to work in pubs to support myself through uni, but then quit afterwards because I felt I had no service spirit. When I was struggling to find work after graduation, I actually started claiming job seekers allowance, but quit as soon as I found a new part time job because its aweful, having to report to the job centre all the time when you're fighting to get into an industry. So if I was to become really desperate, I would not work in a fastfood place, but would rather take another bar job than scrounge off the council again. I'm not criticising people who are on JSA, but now that I know what its like, I would not want to go back to it.

No
-
Yes if that was the only job available, I'd definitely take it!
-
Yeah, there is no shame in that. The shame is in living off the government because you are 'too good' to take such a job. A job is a job.
-
sure if that would put food on my table. Whatever I could do until something better came along. :)
-
Sure, a job is a job in this crappy economy. Anything to keep my kids from starving!
-
I'd rather that then collect the dole- definately less embarrassing- not getting others to pay my way
-
I can barely stand up most of the time but, I am would work a mc'job if it was the only way I could support my family.
