* One of the early comics in ''[[Bob and George]]'' (a hand-drawn one) had George working at McBoogers. The author actually stated that everyone should work in fast food at least once to see things from the other side of the counter.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20100823153432/http://housd.net/archive_page.php?comicID=3 This HOUSD strip] one explains itself.
* ''[[Loserz]]'' features "[https://web.archive.org/web/20110519182403/http://bukucomics.com/loserz/go/36 Mc-Hamchunks]" and "[https://web.archive.org/web/20101213180947/http://bukucomics.com/loserz/go/95 Cock in the Box]". [[Hilarity Ensues]].
* Half of the strip ''[[Phil Likes Tacos]]'' is about gaming and the way people treat gamers. The other half is about this trope, though the emphasis on the hell that is customers, coworkers, and the clueless decisions of corporate management makes it pretty clear that the author has actually 'been there' instead of just working off stereotypes seen on TV.

* After losing his job at the comic shop and being denied unemployment insurance, Mike of ''[[Something*Positive]]'' picks up a job at a local frog-themed burger chain. The usual problems of stupid customers and paradoxical corporate bureaucracy ("the bathrooms must be sparkling clean, but we'll charge you for using cleaning supplies more than once a month") set in quickly. The fact that he accepts this fate stoically and almost cheerfully indicates some very impressive character development, though.
** Mike later finds employment at a different fast-food joint, and is surprised (and a little disturbed) to find that it's an ''aversion'' of this. The manager specifically tells Mike that being an employee there doesn't mean he has to take crap from anyone, customer or not.
* In ''[[Sinfest]]'', [httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20140209180032/http://sinfest.net/archive_page.php?comicID=3269 Lil' Evil's job at McDebbil's.]
