Shaquille O’Neal is one of the most popular figures in basketball. Along with having a great NBA career, he is a broadcaster and businessman. He is also a proud father of six kids and has a net worth in excess of $400 Million.

But still, he has some embarrassing moments where he finds himself with no cash at times, and one of those times was at McDonald’s where he got fired after working there for one day.

Earlier last month, he admitted that he went to work at several fast food joints. His dad gave him two options-either babysit the kids or work. Shaq chose the latter. But he did not have a lot of success and he revealed that he lasted only one day at McDonald’s.

He also worked at other fast food places like Papa John’s and Big Chicken, but that also didn’t last very long. And Shaq revealed an embarrassing reason why he got fired on the first day from McDonald’s. He said he had to leave after he got caught stealing a few fries.

This has got to be embarrassing for anyone, but Shaq didn’t care. So many times we have heard stories of Shaq giving tons of cash to the general public and giving thousands in tips. He has also bought some very expensive items for his fans. He forgets to take cash with him sometimes, and he runs out of important stuff. Let it be a free meal or gas or anything, Shaq isn’t afraid to ask.
