The ice cream machine was never broke, it just takes 3 hours to clean so we used to say it was broke so we didn't have to serve you lot. Cheers x"  And it has been retweeted more than 10,000 times and had more than 71,000 likes.  Another former worker posted: "As an ex McDonald's employee, the ice cream machine was always working it just took too long to clean it so we used to tell everyone it was broken hahaha."  In response to the tweet, one user asked: "I don't understand why you couldn't say it's being cleaned or maintenanced."
