He started at McDonald’s as a teenager in 1976. Now, 50 years later, this U.K. man owns six restaurants

A man in the U.K. who began his 50-year career with McDonald’s as a teenager in 1976 now owns and operates six restaurants across South London.

According to U.K. outlet MyLondon, Terry Eagle was just 15 when he walked into a McDonald’s in South London looking for his first job. At the time, McDonald’s was still relatively new in the U.K.—the fast-food chain had opened its first British restaurant just two years earlier.
