Many of the big QSR chains are going to self-service kiosks.
Money-wise, it's a better investment than human workers but
from the service point of view, not many people like having to
interface with a box.

They'll get used to it. Consider ATMs.

Or the drive through. You're talking to a disembodied voice with all

Hi Jim,

They'll get used to it. Consider ATMs.

True, I hadn't thought of that. Of course, there's always going to be a human cashier hanging around because there's certain parts of the population who shouldn't use self-checkouts even though they do. Like the people who buy $300
worth of food and insist on using the tiny checkout...

Fun fact: the reason why ATMs use a four-digit PIN is that the inventor of the ATM tried an experiment with his wife on whether or not she could remember a six-digit PIN when he was doing final development of his ATM. She could not remember six digits but she could remember four. Et voila! the birth of the four-digit ATM PIN was born. I know that some modern ATMs will allow six to eight digit PINs now but from what I understand, those are only with certain large banks.

vanilla, baking powder and salt.

Mix mashed berries into batter.

Fold in half the flour with a spatula, then half the milk. Add

I resemble that :-}} I avoid the self service machines almost all the
time. They don't like me anyhow.

We have a debit card. We use it at least (and maybe only) once a year
to get money for Christmas envelopes for the kids and grandkids. That
is our only use for an ATM machine. Almost all the rest of our banking
is via the internet.

I mostly avoid those, too.... I'd much rather go inside the bank and
either deposit or withdraw money from a teller.... on the rare occasion
I've withdrawn money from an ATM, or checked my balance in order to
activate the debit card, but generally I just don't use ATMs at all...
