I have no advice but just wanted to let you know my Dh works as a manager at our maccas and he has been there fo 7 years now and it SUCKS lol We were over the stupid shift work hours ( same shifts your store has) so he now does 5 night sifts a week it sucks but because of shift allowance he gets an extra $70 a week. But yeah like I said I just wanted to let you know we pretty much know exactly where you are coming from about needing more money ( we have 3 kids and a morgage on the same wage!!!) and about staying for the security good luck with it... Will be slightly easier once bub is here!!
