My first reaction is, “the fuck they will.”
Maybe a good idea to just turn around when you pull up and see there is surge pricing on a fucking cheeseburger.
Idk if they’re thinking this one through… imagine you pull into the drive through and get stuck in the line then find out one burger meal is $35 today.
This was my thought. I’m thinking that just taking up the space in line for the drive through will cause issues. Pull up to the kiosk with a line of cars behind and decide that it’s too expensive? Now where do you go? I guess I’ll just sit here for a bit till the line clears in front of me. Oh, sorry I didn’t notice the line had moved, I was ordering food on my phone from a competitor across the street you see…
I will experiment with boycotting this shit when I see it. We’ll see which hypothesis wins out!
Can’t wait to see the Xitter shade war the Wendy’s account is going to be in. Oh, wait, I quit Xitter, so I won’t see it.
I think the most fucked up part about this is you know the restaurant employees (the ones who actually do the work during these surges) won’t see a cent of this extra profit and 100% of it will go straight to the shareholders and executives.
But all of the heat will be directed towards them.
I’d already read about this, and my first reaction was still that must be satire.
Info comes directly from the investor meeting, so it’s real.
I never doubted it; I just wish that reality hadn’t swapped with The Onion back in 2016.
Boooooooooooo
That’s kinda dope, but also how about surge pay for the workers?
Wendy’s sells food?
They’re clearly a technology company. That’s why this was posted here.
