Currently titled "The Passion of the Clerks", the film will pick up with Dante and Randal ten years after the original as our two heroes trudge through the malaise of their thirties. Jason Mewes, now out of rehab, is back on deck to play Jay across Smith's Silent Bob."

    First I see the story "Open Xchange Server Source-code Released" on AICN and now this.

    That's what you get for having an unpopular opinion and stating it in two inflammatory sentences.

    If you'd written an explanation of what you didn't like about the movies, that's an unpopular opinion. Your post, on the other hand? Troll.

    If you want to troll, go wild. I could be wrong, but I doubt anyone much cares. Just don't write this "Woe is my trampled on free thinking and speech, don't cry for me Argentina" bullshit as an epilogue to it.

    Awe crap, when I type things out I normally do it in my word processor and had a few extra notes and what not in it... maybe I shouldn't have done that control-a and a quick paste and submit.

    Anyway, here is what I was trying to say... but without having to fight through other stuff.

    You don't have to believe it, but it is true.

    Of those that I knew who'd had McDonalds as a career and had a lick of sense were not the low level grunts or slightly higher managers but were the salary managers and store managers. I'll grant you it's not the most glamorous job, but it can be a well paid one if you're good at it.

    While some local school teachers were being shown how the store worked, one remarked "I'm so glad I went to college" to which a manager replied "I have an MBA." What is a man like he doing working at a McDonalds? Simple, it's an easy job and he was content with it (more so when he got his own store).

    Fast food is one of those industries where to hang on at the higher levels you need to be damn good at your job, not just compared to those under them, but compared to any possible person to fill the job.

    If you want someone who's got much more than a lick of sense... find someone who owns a McDonalds store as opposed to a store manager who just runs the store. Most of them worked their way up through the system (often starting as an order taker, fry person, etc) and realized that a great deal of money can be made in owning such a place.

    He'll blow the money on, well, blow, sure as night follows day, sure as every even numbered Star Trek film sucks ass.
