The gist

A student envied her friend's free dorm Big Macs, then discovered who had to make them.

Suddenly remembered this: in college a friend told me her dorm's evening snack was Big Macs갑자기 웃긴거 생각난다 나 대딩때 친구가 기숙사 저녁 간식이 빅맥이라는거야

I went "whoa, really? All the dorm kids get one? Lucky~" Then after class I headed to my McDonald's shift, lmaooo, and my manager said: make 300 Big Macs.그래서 와 진짜? 그 많은 기숙사생 다 주는거야? 부럽다~ 이러고 수업 끝나고 나 그때 맥날 알바할때라서 출근하러갔는데 ㅋㅋㅌㅋㅋㅋㅋ매니저님이 빅맥 300개 만들라고함

💡 Why is this funny?

She gushed "lucky~" about a treat she herself would be assembling hours later. The envy and the labor were the same burgers.vs. envying a party, then being hired as the caterer.

💡 Dorms hand out Big Macs?

Korean university dorms and departments regularly give students free snacks, especially around exams — sometimes a catered fast-food run for hundreds.vs. dorm midnight breakfast, but it's a 300-burger McDonald's order.
