7:35 am
levels of customer service and that will help us in the environment we're in. >> and they'll get paid time off. >> wages are important to people. we recognize that. actually when we speak to our customers -- employees, sorry, what matters to them. clearly the paycheck is important. what else can help them in their busy heckty lives. paid time off. that was a big priority. they'll accrue hours that they can actually take so if they've got difficulties like taking care of a sick child or other issues they can utilize that paid time off. >> i want to get back to why not the fran chaiees and is there anything you can do to influence minimum wage for those workers. >> they're independent owner/operators and they're absolutely expert -- they're

7:38 am
recognized as being the best burg business out there. >> you'll be the best burg business out there if you make the best burgers out there. beyond all this, what are you going to do to change this company so that rather than having a declining sales in income revenue, you increase it by making better burgers? >> i think what we recognize is the pace of change outside of mcdonald's has been quicker than the pace of change within. you will see us run this business, you'll see me run it with a sense of urgency and purpose to make a meaningful change that customers care about. they love our food. just a day-to-day customer experience and they will recognize those changes and will reward us for that. >> can we say you have the best fries. >> and sundaes. >> what's your favorite thing on the menu? >> quarter pounder with cheese is my go-to. >> do you know the theme song.

i'm kevin nealon, comedian. and i'm arnold palmer, professional golfer. know what we have in common? we talked to our doctors about treatment with xarelto®. me, when i had a blood clot in my leg that could have traveled to my lungs. that's why i took xarelto®, too. xarelto® is proven to treat and help reduce the risk of dvt and pe blood clots. i took xarelto® for afib... an irregular heartbeat that can lead to a stroke from a blood clot. xarelto® is proven to reduce the risk of stroke in people with afib, not caused by a heart valve problem. hey, well i'm glad we got together. for people with afib currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. i tried warfarin before, but the blood testing routine and dietary restrictions had me off my game. tell me about it. let's see, golf clinic, or blood clinic? ooh, that's a tough one. not this time. not with xarelto®. anything else? i'll have another arnold palmer. ok. make mine a kevin nealon. really, brian? hey, safety first. like all blood thinners,
7:41 am
don't stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor, as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke. while taking xarelto® you may bruise more easily, and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. xarelto® can cause serious bleeding, and in rare cases may be fatal. get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto® watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle-related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve, or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto® tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. xarelto® has been prescribed more than 11 million times in the u.s. and that number's growing. like your guys' scores. with xarelto® there is no regular blood monitoring, and no known dietary restrictions. treatment with xarelto® was the right move for us. ask your doctor about xarelto®. you may be able to get up to 12 months at no cost. i can't believe it's not butter! but this is the improved
