Lettuce celebrate!

The crew at a local McDonald’s (1600 S. Hamilton Cir.) had a special occasion on their hands...one they knew they had to go all out for. Beloved team member Jetta, who had been with the company for over 40 years, was turning 80 soon.

Local McDonald’s Owner-Operators, Alon Management, decided to throw something burger and better to show their appreciation.

The crew ended up surprising her with an in-store celebration, complete with balloons, cake, and long-time customers. What a Happy Meal.
