These Super-corporations are always up to mischief. A penny here, a debit card there.
I am not patronizing McDonalds anymore. Not that their menu is irresistible, but, give me a break. They can't print paychecks and give Americans their freedom from corporate greed.
Breaking the law now. I am sorry but McDonald's is about as disgusting about power over their employees to benefit Wall Street is as bad as it gets. Ronald McDonald ain't "the man" no more.

saying she was required to receive her wages through a debit card that
charged fees, resulting in some hourly employees receiving less than

Natalie Gunshannon, a single mother, 27, said she and other workers were
paid through a JPMorgan Chase Payroll Card, which has a $1.50 fee for
ATM withdrawals, a $10 inactivity fee after 90 days, and a 75 cent
online payment fee per transaction and other fees.
Gunshannon, who filed a lawsuit in the Luzerne County Court of Common
Pleas, is hoping to have her case certified as a class action on behalf
of the other employees who were paid with the Payroll card.
"It's a violation of the law," said Gunshannon's attorney, Michael
Cefalo. "They're entitled to a choice to be paid in cash or check. Fees
connected to this debit card which employees have to pay to get their
wages which is unfair."...
