My perspective is that we should cut most of the 33% of the labor not by reducing salaries but by having more skilled staff but less staff.
The restaurants' industry is one of the most traditional and less tech innovating sectors.
At https://www.waiterio.com https://www.waiterio.com we made self-ordering software with QR codes NINE YEARS AGO.
That's right. Nine years ago we could have already said goodbye to waiters but the truth is few people wanted to use QR code and even fewer restaurants owners wanted to try it out.
We pivoted to POS software on a tablet because that obvious thing already felt like science fiction to most restaurants owners.
Now in 2022 with the pandemic few restaurants added QR codes but did you try to open them? Most of them are a .pdf on a website and many times the .pdf link is broken.
We gave another try with the self-ordering and the QR codes: https://www.waiterio.com/en/restaurant-menu-with-qrcode/ https://www.waiterio.com/en/restaurant-menu-with-qrcode/ hoping this time around is the right time. Yet very few restaurants ever try that feature.
