Replacing higher operational costs (from laws mandating a higher minimum wage) with a one-time capital cost. Bound to happen.
The local McDonalds now has kiosk ordering.
- Keverw 9y agoI heard they were going to start doing that. Haven't happened here where I am. I wonder if you can tell it you don't want onions or pickles like you can tell a worker on your burgers, since I'm a bit of a picky eater. I also wonder if touch screens spread more germs, but I guess you could argue the same for door knobs anyways.
- mercer 9y agoThe kiosks over here allow you to customize your order, and I assume they're the same everywhere. It does appear that the kiosks are limited to removing the default ingredients, rather than allowing extra ingredients. Maybe this is a general policy change, but in the past I recall asking for bacon on a bacon-less burger and getting it. So could be that ordering with a person still has an advantage in some cases.
