I thought I was still asleep and having a Monty Python dream, but no, awake I was, and hearing correctly I was. McDonald's are going to start giving examination certificates.
Real ones.
When I wuz @ skool yu ad too wurk rill ard to get GCEs. First you had to work really hard to get your 'O' levels, and then you had to work really harder to get your 'A' levels. Then, if you were lucky you could get a job sweeping the streets. If you went on to college and got a degree in something you could get a job in a fast food outlet. Now you just go to work in a fast food outlet and they give you your 'A' level for it.
Right.
Nothing wrong with that.
Just don't NOBODY try to tell me that it isn't easier to get qualifications nowadays.
(Calm down dear, it's only a grot burger outlet - The Man in the Big Hat)
