There's a meme being debated right now that says McDonald's workers in Denmark make $22 U.S. per hour plus they have 6 weeks of vacation.

Is this accurate? U.S. McDonald's workers make much less than this.

Can you work at a fast food place like McDonald's and have a decent standard of living?

And those pesky Americans should also start counting floors from level 0... and switch to metric while they're at it!

Yes, because it makes lots of sense to say "I'm on the first floor of a 3-story building" when you mean the second floor. (That's how ordinal numbers work - we start with first, not zeroth.)

Kinda silly to start a discussion based on my silly comment, but now that you did...

In a world where no underground floors exist, I guess counting from 1 can make sense, that part's true... but since we do tend to have floors underground, I find it a lot more logical to think of floors as a scale around 0. Otherwise you would either have to number the 1st basement floor 0 or skip 2 floors between the ground floor and the basement.

Basement floors are 0 in the States.

My point exactly. That is nonsensical.

Why? They're underground, and NOT the norm.
