I can get a cheeseburger and fries at a local restaurant cheaper than a cheeseburger with an equivalent amount of meat, at McDonald’s. Of course, I don’t get that refreshing watered-down coke with it. Or the chemical additives in the fries.

I do not support this at all, but quite honestly employment is so tight that most of the fast food signs I see around town start at $10.50.

In NYS, a server can make more, thanks to minimum wage tinkering, than a starting pharmacy tech. That result is not a good thing.

Yes we have UPS on the servers and network of course.

But when it’s down for 6-8 hours the batteries give out.

Constitutional amendment by referendum is a horrible idea. We have it in FL. Voters are unqualified to make the supreme laws of the state.

The kiosks are for ordering. I haven’t seen the McDonalds kiosks but I think you also pay at the kiosk. There are people actually making the food. This cuts down on having employees at the counters taking orders and payments.

And WTH is that mystery “meat” taco bell uses?

I don't know why so many people dump on Taco Bell. I like the, sometimes, and their food tastes a heck of a lot better than all the C-Rations I had to eat. They're even better than most of the MREs too.

I figured. You wouldn’t think they could save much, thereby, but then I remember the baby formula company manager who found the company could save several thousand dollars a year, by eliminating salt from the formula. Trouble is, babies died without that little bit of salt in their formula.

Lower wages create more jobs, keep all wages under $1.50 and we could all have 2 or 3 jobs....some people are so stupid they make their lives stupid.
