McDonald’s, Wendy’s and other fast-food restaurants are expected to be targeted with acts of civil disobedience that could lead to arrests Thursday as labor organizers escalate their campaign to unionize the industry’s workers.
Kendall Fells, an organizing director for Fast Food Forward, said in an interview that workers in a couple of dozen cities were trained to peacefully engage in civil disobedience ahead of this week’s planned protests.

Sounds like a classic case of sales vs administrative to me.
and this coincides with Obama stating raise the minimum wage, , what a mighty coincidence.

I really don’t think these people have thought this thru.
In the age of automation, in which we live, it’s a precarious position.

You have that exactly right....there’s a gas station here that has a full counter of these machines to “pick” your choice.
Yulk...I’ll cook at home thank you.
...”This has NOTHING to do with raising wages for anyone, and EVERYTHING to do with the November election”...
Yes...and lining the pockets of the Unions, or soon to be, in order to fund their candidates.
Sheesh...nothing in America is what it seems it should be!
I have ordered food w/o a waiter, and paid the bill w/o a waiter.
Just say’n...
