McDonald's Employees Use This Sneaky Trick to Shortchange You on Fries

The Instructions
According to ex-employees, some McDonald's locations give instructions to not fill the fry boxes completely, while making sure it's not noticeable to customers. There's a sneaky trick to pull this off: squeezing the cardboard boxes while filling them.

Embarrassment
A former employee shared this sneaky technique on the American forum Reddit, and other ex-workers confirmed the story. One of them said: "I only had one customer call me out on it. He emptied the fries into his bag and then poured them back into the carton himself, and it only filled halfway. So I had to give him more fries. I was impressed and embarrassed. It's been 7 years, and I can still see his face."
