[Lexicog] Re: McJob

[Michael Cahill]

"Mc" also has the connotation of "mass-produced, with no individuality" as
in the term here in the USA of "McMansions" for a whole neighborhood of new
and large houses.

I didn't Google first! McFood (= 'junk food') is already out there.
There are even restaurants, such as the McFood and Coffee restaurant in
Bratislava, that are using the name.

So it is already established that "Mc" is an English prefix meaning 'bad'.
