When applying for a job at McDonalds, is it best to not include your college degree?

SadWoman asked:


I am desperate and I am tired of hanging around the house all day. I want to save money and eventually pay down my debt and start paying off my student loan. I am going to apply for a job at McDonalds because I need something to do. Should I leave off my college degree on the application?
I have tried everything. I am competing with people with 15 years of experience and several Master’s degrees. Nobody wants my fresh-out-of-college butt.
