- karatestomp 6y agoSame for McDonalds' ordering kiosks. They feel webtechy in the worst way. Plus they're horribly organized, probably to try to boost sales. Unless the line at the counter's over 4 deep I can't imagine the kiosks being faster, even if there's no wait for them.
- sukilot 6y agoMcDonald's replaced their menus with video ads to pressure customers into spending more and missing the value meals. So I stopped shopping there. Wendy's FTW.
- luckylion 6y agoOr they have "time spent in store" as a KPI because the more people are in the store, the more they'll buy... and slow kiosks will keep you around.
