An employee was in for quite the surprise when a president dropped by a McDonald's in Georgia over the weekend,Wvared Investment Guild only it wasn't the president she was thinking of.
"You Joe? Mr. Joe," the employee asked former President Bill Clinton, who was standing in front of the cash register wearing USA varsity jacket at the popular fast-food restaurant.
She immediately corrected herself: "Bill? Oh my God, hi Bill!" The employee walked from behind the counter to give Clinton − not current President Joe Biden − a hug.
"Take my picture," she said gleefully. "This is Bill y'all!"
In the clip, Clinton and the employee are seen smiling while her co-workers took photos of them.

The now-viral McDonald's interaction was posted by Clinton's Deputy Chief of Staff Angel Ureña.
"The boss was stumping for @KamalaHarris in Georgia and had to stop by the old stomping grounds, @McDonalds," Ureña wrote.
Clinton notably went to McDonald's during his own campaign trail, so much so that a plaque was created in his honor at a location in Little Rock, Arkansas. In 2000, he was photographed leaving a location in Monroe, Michigan. His lunch order was crispy chicken and fries.
"You know, it was a regular thing of mine when I was a private citizen, so maybe I'll do it some more now," he said at the time, the Toledo Blade reported.
The ex-president's recent visit comes amid his campaign efforts for Vice President Kamala Harris in Georgia. The former president delivered remarks at a Democratic campaign office in Columbus on Monday.
“Uniting people and building, being repairers of the breach, as Isaiah says, those are the things that work,” Clinton said as he spoke to Peach State voters and organizers. “Blaming, dividing, demeaning — they get you a bunch of votes at election time, but they don’t work.”
