McDonald's worker with down syndrome retires after 33 years

Fast food giant McDonald’s have gone the extra mile and honoured an employee with Down’s syndrome, as he retired after 33 years of loyal service.

Daniel Lybrink retired as a Lobby Manager at a restaurant in Michigan, US, where he first began his career in 1984 – The Independent reports.

His caretaker, Molly Wisuri, told InsideEdition.com how much the job had meant to Lybrink.

“I believe that McDonald's truly was one of the first enterprises to start taking in employees with disabilities," she said. "That store just became another family for Daniel. He was very well-respected and the peer support was fantastic. He has a very outgoing personality. He’s a kisser and hugger.”
