Even that job will be turned over to a machine which never takes breaks and amortizes over the years at far less that $15 per hour of operation. Real Socialism, not the Scandinavian Capitalist government partnership model our kids have been misled to imagine is in store, has always meant shared misery for all classes but the party elite.
True. McDonalds will be the first to convert. They have been laying the foundations and they are already about 75% there - they just need to add few automated production cells to their stores.
The infrastructure is in place to take orders, receive payment (even wirelessly from a remote cell phone app) and communicate those orders to an automated production system.
They have structured their hand labor production for stationized, assembly line production.
All they need to do is add a few machines and they are there. They have already developed most of the necessary automated production equipment and they currently refining it in anticipation of $15 min wage.
This will happen very soon after Bidens new national $15 per hour minimum wage. People will be shocked at just how fast the conversion will occur. A typical burger assembly system costs about $600K /year in payroll at $15/hr. The return on investment for automated production is not much over a year at these rates, maybe less.

TOTALLY RIGHT! Having been to other countries, with higher minimum wages...yep, it’s all kiosks now for ordering. It’s just a matter of running a few jackhammers and stringing some wiring for McDonalds to have it everywhere.
