MCDONALD’S INSTALLS AUTOMATED CASHIERS: BEATS MINIMUM WAGE, OBAMACARE
Posted on May 16, 2014
We have talked about the effects of ObamaCare of business, the inability to hire and pay minimum wage employees let alone $10 an hour plus full time. There have been more fast food strikes this week, no end is in sight. We warned you about automation, the strikers refused to listen. McDonald’s did, they’re purchasing automated cashier systems.
CNET: “The touch screens will only accept debit or credit cards, adding to the slow death knell of cash and coins. This all goes along with an overall revamp of McDonald’s restaurants worldwide aimed at projecting a modern image as opposed to the old-fashioned golden arches with a slightly creepy (to my taste anyway) clown guy hanging around the french fries.”
McDonald’s European division will be installing 7,000 of these. How long before they come here?
