Not surprised. They've already eliminated a lot of cashier's and been pushing the touch screen menu and the phone app more.

Taco bell also has their automated drive thru. I think the steak and shake downtown here also basically eliminated servers for dine in and are mainly automated and you go pick your food up

Ain't gotta pay payroll to cut checks to employees that don't exist.
Fully automated is straight revenue unless there's a malfunction.
Franchise owners don't have to take time to hire people.
Gets rid of human error and waste, it is more efficient.
Franchise owners can still make rent on the property.
Downside, skyrocketed property taxes if rent increases from this.
You see self check-out. Just like that.
Working at McDonald's is low wage, low skill labor for a first or second job.
They talking about passing bills to pay fast food workers twenty-two an hour.
That's more than enough for McDonald's to rethink their employment methods.

In the video they said it's still fully staffed in the kitchen.

@Wild self you know that wouldnt happen because investments like this are meant to cut down on costs to increase profits.
yet it should also mean those employees should get paid more but we know it won't happen because of your 2nd statement

this is just taking jobs away from highschoolers and people who are barely keeping themselves afloat, usually the next stop is crime or hard drugs if they truly needed that McDonalds job, get a glock switch and start carjacking i guess :francis: this is a pretty trash timeline



companies really gonna start showing they asses once A.I./robotics become more openly accepted, not sure if legislation will be able to contain it

future generations just might have to learn a shyt ton more in school in order to get jobs that can't be automated, public school attendees are gonna be fukked for a very long time

Yup we gotta realize they aren't going to pay people more unless they are forced to because of cuts into their profits. Corporations don't have an obligation to provide jobs nor do they have a conscience to even want to. The average consumer has the most powerful tool in their pocket to demand change from corps: their wallet. Unfortunately people are too selfish and divided to not use it there until there is sufficient change. Instead we wait on lawmakers to provide a bandaid fix after the injury has bled for a while.

That's why I feel the greatest skill a person can have in this world is the ability to rally people around you. You can get damn near anything done with enough people

Are you fukking retard?

It needs to get scrapped. I'm pretty sure that when places like McDonalds gets planning permission to run their businesses in certain areas, they present their case with jobs they'll create.

If they're no longer creating jobs, they need to make way for a business that will.
Or do you deep throat capitalism so far you can't see context? As a response to my post, what is "better" cannot be made up of outcomes that are beneficial to the business and owners alone.

This comment is remedial. Take an economics class, my guy.
