aid that self-service ordering kiosks will be made available across its 6,000-plus restaurants in the second half of the year as minimum wage hikes and a tight labor market push up wages.

so wendy's is doing 6k and the other fast food are going to fallow.
I was just thinking (hey gotta do something when mowing the yard) what if the whole $15 per hour BS was started by the makers of the kiosk? That they started this knowing the resturants won't pay them $15 and it would be cheaper to buy the kiosk?
hmmm
LOL ment this for off topic! mod can you move it since its not really politics or such..
