Why would you ask if they're racist?

I'm guessing you're not Caucasian?

Well my interview was pretty informal.. she just sat me down at the customer seats and asked me:
So why do you want to work here?
How would you benefit maccas?
What would you do if an angry customer came in saying their food was cold?
Do you live around here?
When can you work.

They don't really ask you difficult questions but one of my friends got a question "What are your weaknesses and how do you overcome them?" I guess you could just say time management and you've recently bought a diary or something.

Tips: Be confident, smile and make eye contact but don't constantly stare deeply into their eyes or anything :p

something along the lines of "wanting to be involved in a forward thinking organisation" "wanting to hone and improve work skills and utilise them to satisfy customers" etc etc

I just said I wanted the experience and financial support throughout highschool but I don't think that's the best answer :L
