Excellent, actually. I was just speaking with someone yesterday about how McDonald's is executing a long-term strategy very effectively. They appeal to children without offending adults. The population in the region places a high emphasis on eating home-cooked meals and domestic cleanliness. They've managed to make a name for themselves without having too much negative stigma being attached to them for being "fast food" which is casually viewed as an American malaise.

A 'premium' chicken sandwich is over $4. I can buy a larger fresh-grilled chicken breast sandwich with sauces and veggies of my choosing for less than $3, so I haven't had a reason to go inside.

Regarding the employees, the unemployment rate is relatively high, so there will always be some available.

Also, the wage of a younger non-skilled employee is less than $2/hour. (If McD's pays more than that, I don't foresee many quitting.)

It's common for people in their 30's to be living with parents.

Housing and food are cheap, while consumer goods are expensive.

Mostly highschool kids or students with subvention eat there.

Prices aren't considered low and you can actually get a quality meal for same price.
