Originally broadcast on a Twin Cities TV station, this story comes from Neatorama. The McDonald’s in question is about three miles from my house.
Fifty years ago, then 16-year-old Steve Rydberg was working at a local
McDonald’s. Since he worked at the grill, his co-workers developed a code

how he surprised his wife on her birthday fifty years later at the same
McDonald’s:
My brother worked at Micky D’s throughout High School and college. He thought he’d get in good with the manager by asking his little sister out. Big Brother manager was more over-protective than impressed but his little sister is still married to my brother.
