A McDonald’s employee revealed some of the hidden cameras and conversation-listening devices found in drive-thrus.
There’s nothing better than pulling up to the golden arches and treating yourself to a Big Mac meal without even getting off your bum, whether you’re hungover or just need a pick-me-up.
While going through the McDonald’s drive-thru is undoubtedly a luxury that many of us could never live without, it’s safe to say that we’ll never be able to whiz around for a cheeky McFlurry in the same way ever again.
That’s because a McDonald’s employee has revealed several drive-thru secrets that we were blissfully unaware of, including hidden cameras and our personal conversations.
It turns out there is a lot about drive-thrus that we didn’t know.
Now, the anxiety is valid.
A user named @secretfitzz revealed on TikTok that the Maccies drive-thru is actually secretly taking photos of our unassuming mugs while we’re sitting there with last night’s makeup on and stewing in our hungover filth. Furthermore, they are also listening in on our conversations.
People may not be aware that we can listen in on your conversations even when we aren’t speaking to you or taking your order, according to the TikToker.
In order to identify whose order is whose, “And we have a camera at the speaker that takes a picture of you. “.
It brightens my day to see mugshots of random people, she continued. “.
Unsurprisingly, many people were shaken by the idea that McDonald’s employees would have access to their horrifying mug shots and private conversations.
One TikToker wrote: “If this is true, I’ll never go again,” and another added: “New fear unlocked: Drive-thrus. “.
A third laughed while saying, “How can you hear my conversation when you can’t hear me screaming into the mic from 5cm away?”.
