This fast food training video from 1989 is incredible

Kinda want to work at Wendy’s now.

THOSE TRAINING VIDEOS you’re required to watch on the first day on the job often leave a lot to be desired.

Fast food chain Wendy’s knew what they were at when they created this 1989 ‘Grill Skills’ video.

It goes from a boring walk-through with quotes such as

Pressing a hamburger patty requires skill and dedication. You have to watch over the patty constantly as they cook.

…to an amazing rap.

Grill skills aside, those film-making skills are next-to-none. Check out those cross cuts. That soundtrack. The special effects.

Prince is back and he’s gas>

Is this the coolest birthday lunch ever?>
