People should boycott this MDs. People need people and human interaction. In this world we are getting further and further from each other. This fosters this unhealthy trend. When robots start going to MDs then they can open up robotic MDs to service them.

If you want human interaction (and E. coli), go to Chipotle.

It’s questionable that you get much “human” interaction when you order fast food. About 50% of the time, I don’t get what I ordered. Just the other day, I ordered a salad with grilled chicken and ended up getting a plain salad - no chicken. I’ve gone through the drive through line on occasion and not gotten salad dressing or plastic utensils or straws. I’ve gotten Wendy’s chili that had only a few pieces of meat in it and a couple of beans. Quite often, I get black coffee when I order it with cream. What’s so hard to understand about coffee with two creams, please?

You shouldn’t have to pull everything out of the bag or open the lid on a cup of coffee and to make sure you got what you ordered, but you absolutely do! You’d think a “human” could accurately take and fill a simple one person order, but you’d be wrong.

I’ll take the robots because they’ve got to do better than the 1 out of 2 I’m currently experiencing.

What is a MD, are you advocating robots go to MD's? The headline on this article is a hoot, robots don't get paid a wage they are purchased and depreciated. The reason that Corporations, boycott McD's if you want, it's your right, plan on boycotting all the major fast food companies because these ridiculous wage demands for unskilled labor is going to drive all of them to automation. These people are demanding a wage that in almost all cases, is higher than journeyman wages in skilled trades.

I know of what I speak having managed Mickey D's for over 23 yrs., there is not a position in any restaurant below shift manager that comes anywhere close to that kind of remuneration.

The only ones that benefit from a $15 minimum wage are the unions with wage increases tied to the minimum and the tax man, minimum wage workers will lose jobs and hours as businesses cut expenses that can't be made up in price increases and all the rest of us lose out in reduced purchasing power as prices go up everywhere while our purchasing power stays stagnant. I feel that people should be paid what their position is worth I no more feel a fast food worker is worth $15 an hour than I do that sports players and actors are worth their ridiculous salaries.

I’d rather have a robot than an idiot. I went to a movie theater and the person at the window took forever, the ticket taker was nice and the concession operators were slow, sometimes lazy and very inefficient...... I just looked at them and told my wife ,”robot, robot, robot”.

I could get rid of 75% of their employees and have a couple more security, one manager, one robot supervisor, one IT person and one or two robot/kiosk tenders, possibly even robots to clean up after each show.

No worries about scheduling, workers comp, insurance, payroll, etc...

Robots.
