Never liked Panera. Their music sucks.

They have horribad bagels. It's not just a roll with a hole in the middle.

Not a place to go if you are in to low carbs.

Seriously though, I dislike Panera. Their bread is either really hard or rubbery. And everything else sucks.

And misleading thread title. It should be 'Trolling: A textbook example of how to be bad at it'.

Or, maybe this thread was the troll... Noooooooooooooooo! 8/10

I've been seeing these at Burger King in airports for awhile. They never seem any faster. I imagine it'll go about the same way as the self checkout fad.

I bet most fast food joints could be entirely automated.

BTW I use the scan-it-yourself thing at Stop&Shop combined with the self checkout lanes. Fuck waiting in line.

There is a fully automated McDonalds somewhere. I read the start up costs are super high and the maintenance is also very high. The efficiency achieved didn't actually save any costs.

There are also Ramen robots in Japan. The chef cooks the noodles, but you select which local flavor of broth you want, and the robot makes it for you.

I bet most fast food joints could be entirely

...eliminated.

People would live longer. But do we really want the types who eat too much fast food around all that much longer anyway? On second thought... more fast food joints. Another way humans defy nature. We fatten the herd in order to thin it.

I thought he meant there was one story comment blaming this on "Owebamacare" and was costing jobs.

Yes. Old, white, tea party fucktard is retarded and says stupid sit on the internet. Not exactly news tho.

Looks like a good plan to move employees to more value added labor and improving customer service. Place still sucks tho.

Stupid idea. So instead of standing in line to give your order for someone else to put into a machine, you get to stand in line to put it in yourself ...brilliant. And it still does nothing to shorten wait times since you still have to wait for your fucking food to be made. Morons.

Probably, more or less.

But yeah, the maintenance thing etc.

No. You give customers a simple interface, double the number of ordering stations, and redeploy employees from taking orders to making the food. Ordering is sped up as is food prep. Not that novel of an idea. A cashier is just someone who pushes the buttons for you. Waste of labor.

Cash customers are the ones who throw a monkey wrench in it.

specialties already does this; it works pretty well. You order yourself and grab a buzzer. Then sit down until your food is ready.

Sounds great on paper, but in reality there are still going to be lines, and people are still going to wait on food. It doesn't matter how many people they have in the kitchen, food still doesn't instantly appear in a package ready to go.

Cash customers don't make a bit of difference as it's still just an automated vending machine, just like they don't make any difference at the self check outs in grocery stores now. Where by the way, you can end up waiting WAY longer due to the moron that can't figure out how to scan a difficult barcode, or forgets the produce numbers.
