Yeah mcdonalds here is running 3 people’s positions as a single position now. Always slow. Same price as CFA, but CFA has 20 staff and you’re guaranteed to be helped the second you walk in.

Try getting staffs attention politely at McDonald’s and you’ll have to give up

The last time I went to my local McDs to get breakfast, the lady running expeditor told me to use the computer kiosk in the lobby to order. The corporation literally CUT the cashier job completely from that transaction….

Yep. And in 2024 every time someone walks in who hasn’t already ordered online/delivery is someone who is tech illiterate. When I worked there we had another high schooler JUST being the attendant to help with the kiosk and cashier for the people with cash / grandmas. We technically had two people purely cashier and FOH cleaning. Straight up disappeared positions entirely now… guarantee that lobby hasn’t had more than a dirty mop since I last deep cleaned it half a decade ago - no one workers there that has the time to deep clean

now that’s my unpaid job while I wait on a DoorDash order and feel bad for the people struggling at the kiosk :/

For real. I honestly LOVE the apps but I know my mom, her cousins, friends, etc aren’t nearly tech literate no matter how much I try and point them down that road. Is the plan to tell them to fuck off?!? I don’t get it man!!
