I’ve written before about the increasing number of employers that require a four-year college degree if you want to work as a receptionist, file clerk or dental hygienist. Here’s a new one: cashier at McDonald’s, as posted on jobdiagnosis.com.
The text of the ad (which The Washington Examiner wrote about, and which is for a position in Massachusetts):

It’s possible the educational requirement portion was somehow an error (presumably less skilled workers, for whom such jobs are a lifeline, will hope so). I found what seems to be a posting for the same position on McDonald’s internal job site, and it does not have any detail on educational or experience prerequisites.
