    In a surprisingly sad turn of events, McDonald's plans to phase out
    self-serve soda machines in the coming years. Michael explains why this
    is symptomatic of much larger societal issues.

    I was fuming mad back in the 90's when they put them in,

    Why? Self serve was a great idea. The customer didn't have to
    wait in a line for others to order their food just to get a refill.

    Now we just have to wait for the employee's to finish looking for her nail's on the floor while waiting for your drink.

    I hated self-serve when it came out, I admit, but now I prefer it. Customer service has severly decline at all store's in recent year's, it's just
    faster to get the drink personally then wait for an idiot teen to get it.

    OK, more people are doing delivery, so the self serve fountain
    drinks wouldn't be used. But what of those people who still dine in
    the restaurant?
    If people are stealing drinks, deal with each person as it
    happens.
    Fountain drinks are one of the biggest profit makers. Each glass
    costs a few cents. Sure, each refill reduces the overall profit, but
    is it really enough to matter?

    That's not the issue, the issue is the labor involved.

    The customers are NOT paid to refill their cups. The labor, from McDonald's POV, is zero.

    That was exactly my point, you moron.

    That's becouse chik-fil-a has a hospititaly-first mentality, due to the
    need to convert people to thier religion.

    I've been a Chick-fil-a regular for many years and not once has anyone
    there
    even mentioned religion, let alone tried to convert me to theirs.

    Uh huh. And how many time's did you have chik-fil-a on Sunday? When was
    the last time you had a gay wedding at chick-fil-a?

    the only issue with self-serve soda is that the employee's are too
    retarded
    to rememeber to hand you yuor cup.

    Oh and how will this work with self-serve kiosk's, when the store is
    only
    tahking "to-go" orders, IOW, when the employee's are too lazy to wash
    the
    tray's and just serve the food in a bag and tell you you can sit down,
    but
    then they never wash the table's.

    And they still do more work in a day than you do in a
    week.

    Jerry foolishly posted what caused her [1] to get FIRED from
    McDonald's. She refused to wash anything.

    NO, I posted no such thing. I already posted year's ago the true reason why
    I left mcdonald's. this wasn't it.

    Idiot teen? At least that teen has a real job unlike you. You really expect hard working teens to cater to your fat lazy ass?

    That's becouse chik-fil-a has a hospititaly-first mentality, due to the >>> need to convert people to thier religion.

    I've been a Chick-fil-a regular for many years and not once has anyone
    there
    even mentioned religion, let alone tried to convert me to theirs.

    Uh huh. And how many time's did you have chik-fil-a on Sunday? When was the last time you had a gay wedding at chick-fil-a?

    (1) How does being closed one day of the week equate to converting people
    to their religion? "Oh no! It's Sunday and I can't have a spicy chicken sandwich. Looks like I'm gonna have to convert to Christianity," said no
    one ever.

    (2) As for gay weddings, I've never had one of those anywhere because I'm
    not gay, but even if I was, I'd like to think I'd have better taste than to have my wedding at a fast food outlet. I'd no sooner get gay-married at
    Taco Bell or McDonalds than I would at Chick-fil-a.

    And once again, the accusation was that Chick-fil-a tries to convert people
    to their religion, so how does not having gay weddings at Chick-fil-a restaurants convert anyone to Christianity? It makes no sense.

    I was fuming mad back in the 90's when they put them in,

    Why? Self serve was a great idea. The customer didn't have to
    wait in a line for others to order their food just to get a refill.

    Jerry got FIRED from McDonald's. The only people I know of who
    managed that are Jerry and Emmett.
    Unlike the case with Emmett, we don't know why Jerry was fired.
    He's never stated, as far as I am aware, what he did to earn his
    termination of employment. But it was most probably because she [1]
    refused to do the work assigned. Like cleaning. Then lying about the
    matter.

    That's not the issue, the issue is the labor involved.

    The customers are NOT paid to refill their cups. The labor, from
    McDonald's POV, is zero.

    That was exactly my point, you moron.

    Your NEED to lie isn't helping you. As anyone can see, you were
    crying about the labor the company incurs with self serve. Trying to
    use it as a means of giving your LIE more emphasis.
    If there is no labor for the company, why did you mention it as
    an negative? Be specific when you answer. Unless you want to admit, by
    default, that you were feeding your extremely well established NEED to
    lie. If you wish to admit this, you will either run away from the
    truth, or add more lies.

    Jerry foolishly posted what caused her [1] to get FIRED from
    McDonald's. She refused to wash anything.

    NO, I posted no such thing.

    But you did. Though you may have been feeding your NEED to lie.

    I already posted year's

    ago the true reason why
    I left mcdonald's.

    Your feeding your very real NEED to lie, via an grammar, is

    You left because you were fired. I doubt anyone questions that.
    Of course, each person would need to state if they accept the truth
    that you were fired.

    this

    Your feeding your very real NEED to lie, via grammar, is

    wasn't it.

    Enlighten those of us who were not a part of the group when you

    the involuntary termination you experienced.

    Emmett was a hoot.

    That he was.
    One thing Jerry has over Emmett is that, as far as I know, Jerry
    hasn't been incarcerated.

    We had a discussion about him in our groups. See below and
    sign up if you want. Just like usenet.

    I'm already a member of the site. Though I spend more time in
    Dark Corners, where someone is posting a story, "The Girl and the
    Crow." It's rough as is, but with the right editor, it would be even
    better than it already is.

    I am really invested in the story. I'm looking forward to seeing
    how it ends. Though I suspect it will become a series. An idea I find appealing.

    Idiot teen? At least that teen has a real job unlike you. You really expect
    hard working teens to cater to your fat lazy ass?

    Jerry got FIRED from McDonald's. The only people I know of who
    managed that are Jerry and Emmett.
    Unlike the case with Emmett, we don't know why Jerry was fired.
    He's never stated, as far as I am aware, what he did to earn his
    termination of employment. But it was most probably because she [1]
    refused to do the work assigned. Like cleaning. Then lying about the
    matter.


    [1] The name Jerry is a girl's name meaning "ruler with the spear or
    sacred name". https://nameberry.com/b/girl-baby-name-jerry

    No, he's Skeeter.
    I'm surprised you don't see the difference :)

    I can't go anywhere without seeing you shill for your new toy!


    And?
    Keep in mind it is not Skeeter's site.

    sign up if you want. Just like usenet.

    Except the admin passes around IP addresses of random visitors.

    What would be the point of that? If someone visits, what would be
    gained by letting others now the visitor's IP?


    Wouldn't trust it on a bet.

    I've not experienced anything negative.
