How’s that ≥%15.00/hour minimum wage working out?
You beat me to it. That is the massive driving factor behind all of this. Having some sort of AI for ordertaking is a lot less complex than some robot cook. As soon as that technology developed more, it will appear rapidly.
Yeah! Take that, you crybabies! You ought to be able to live on less than $15 per hour! And, you get a whole 28 hour work week too! Why that is a whole $420 per week before FICA! Who couldn’t live on less than that in 2023 America! Serves you right!
Oh wait - “As President and CEO at WENDY’S CO, Todd A. Penegor made $9,669,733 in total compensation. Of this total $1,084,521 was received as a salary, $3,300,000 was received as a bonus, $2,099,997 was received in stock options, $3,149,977 was awarded as stock and $35,238 came from other types of compensation. This information is according to proxy statements filed for the 2021 fiscal year.”
Hmmm. Well maybe Penegor couldn’t live on that. Never mind.
