O On front counter a similar system works to be able to see how
long it takes. Where you collect the order from times each
order. Once again there are expectations that you are to serve
and give the customer their order within a certain time.
O Australia wide we can see if all stores are at the expected time
for drive thru 24/7. This leader board ranks you depending on
how many cars have come within the hour and if they have
been under the expected time. Below is the score board.
Reflection
We were surprised with some of our findings
from the interview. Zac showed us many
documents that we both didnt know existed. For
example on the next page is a picture of one
weeks results for their store. This allows the
managers to pin point the top business
indicators for the week as it clearly shows what
areas are opportunities and what they are doing
well. Highlighted in the green is what is expected
and what Yarraville are doing well and in the red
are opportunities- so times where they didnt get
the recommended time.
Reflection continued
It was interesting to hear from a managers point of

customer in the drive thru.

O We predicated prior to going to the workplace that there would be various
mathematical concepts within the store, however didnt realize the extent.
There was things we just did not take into consideration when we were
brainstorming like putting a certain number of chicken patties in one tray
so they can continue to stay hot.
O Doing this interview at Mc Donalds has been an eye opener as we both
didnt realize the amount of mathematics in one work place which makes
us believe and also compare to our own workplaces that mathematical
concepts are everywhere in our society and we do it sometimes without
realizing.
O Zac mentioned in the interview that although he doesnt like mathematics

Zac showed us the behind the scenes
of Yarraville Mc Donalds. He exposed
us to documents and produce that as
non employees of Mc Donalds are
thank full of the opportunity.
O As a customer we also didnt realize
how much mathematics was
entailed. The obvious was counting
the money that comes in.
