The article doesn't explain what that is, but it sounds bad. I also hate digital menus even more than the anxiety ordering from a human creates.

It's a terrible idea, particularly for fast food.
The reason people buy fast food in the first place is not because it's good but because it's consistent. You know what you are getting in every McDonalds everywhere and you know what the cost will be, this goes against that consistency.

Aren't electric utilities planning to make power prices dynamic on minute by minute calculations, too?
It would make sense to demand different prices for products if their fresh production costs vary across the day, too.
Actually, the entire article is almost bit scary in how vague it is. I mean, yeah, you can guess that "enabling the crew to focus on what matters" is a euphemism for firing half of them, but overall it says very little.

I just got an icee from mcD's and both the girls at the drive through had McDonald themed shirts with katakana on them. One was a sweater I couoldnt' make out that looked like some metal band logo and the other just said McDonald's in english and in japanese.
