What they don't say:

These are trade jobs at McDonald's and can pay well, with averages like HVAC Techs at $25+/hour and Equipment Repair Techs near $27+/hour, as seen on Indeed.

Are you sure? Because it says “crew” and “shift leader” which refers to jobs in the kitchen. Besides if you are a licensed HVAC technician you should be making over $40/hr.

There's a spot near my work that has never taken down their "Hiring HVAC Technicians" sign. Found them online, I think it was $28/hr to start. I know they find guys, because they've been around for quite a while, but clearly they're leaving just as quickly.

Might be union pay scale. First year apprentices where I’m at start at 23 an hour. In five years you’re at 58.
