    Especially when you look up the full definition:

    "McJob
    noun

    a low-paid job with few prospects, typically one taken by an overqualified person.

    ORIGIN 1980s: from McDonald’s, a fast-food restaurant chain, + Job."

    Not quite the same thing as claimed, eh?
    Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away.

        "Arrived"? From where? T0sser.
