  McDonald’s U.K. has launched a campaign to get British dictionary publishers to revise their definitions of“McJob.” 16 the Oxford English Dictionary, a “McJob” is “an unstimulating, low-paid job with few prospects.”Amanda Pierce, McDonald’s spokesperson, said: “It’s the complete opposite to that. It’s stimulating, rewarding, andoffers a wide 17 of opportunities.” Pierce, who started on the shop floor of McDonald’s and now works for theMcDonald’s U.K. head office, is a shining example of the career path that the fast-food 18 can offer itsemployees. McDonald’s will begin offering its employees the opportunity to sign a petition to turn the expression intosomething more 19 in the hopes of changing the way people see McDonald’s jobs. The company will gather asmany signatures as possible before submitting the request to dictionary publishing houses.      It has a hard task ahead, however, as McJob has entered not only the dictionary but the British and Americanvocabulary. Today, McDonald’s jobs are often considered as 20 jobs for high school dropouts or for studentspaying off loans. And at home, parents warn their children: if you don’t study hard, you’ll end up working atMcDonald’s.
