Cross-posted from āToo Bad, So Sad, Too Late - McDonaldās tells U.S. restaurants itās not a āpolitical brandā after Trump visitā by @[email protected] in [email protected]
Excerpt:
Though President Donald Trump visited a Pennsylvania McDonaldās location on Sunday, the fast-food giant is trying to stay neutral in the presidential race.
āAs weāve seen, our brand has been a fixture of conversation in this election cycle. While weāve not sought this, itās a testament to how much McDonaldās resonates with so many Americans. McDonaldās does not endorse candidates for elected office and that remains true in this race for the next President,ā the company said in an internal message viewed by CNBC and confirmed by a source familiar with the matter.
I havenāt eaten at a McDonalds since before covid, and I donāt really miss it.
My point is that I donāt want to wait for a human interaction. Just let me grab some ketchup from a bin and go on with my day.
but who fills the bin?
The people still there, I can think of several mechanisms some of which are a hundred years old at least that could allow automatic dispensing of such items. But McDonaldās sucks so obviously they wont invest in such mechanisms.
A robot? SOMEONE has to fill the robots with āmeatā ācheeseā and ābreadā so one more thing to dispense ketchup, mustard, salt and pepper would be easy enough.
