Doesn’t it drive you crazy when you’re in the middle of doing something at work and you get interrupted by some kind of alert from a piece of technology?
And you and I both know it ALWAYS happens at the busiest time when you don’t have the bandwidth to deal with it.
And a McDonald’s worker named Mario Scott shared a video on TikTok that drives the point home that s**t happens at the worst time.

Scott’s clip addressed the dreaded “Change Battery” headset message that Mickey D’s employees have to deal with while on the job.

A voice in the video constantly repeats, “Change…battery. Change…battery…” during the clip while an employee walks around the restaurant doing different things.
And then the voice has a surprise for Scott that he didn’t see coming!
