Touchscreens are quite ubiquitous these days, seems (almost) everywhere
you go has them. We were in a McD's last year with some friends--that
one had a touchscreen order system. They still had to have up front
workers to, to help us with the order, take cash, etc.

Another reason to avoid McDonald's.

It's not just McDonald's. 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.

That doesn't bother me, of course, but I am in what seems to be the
minority.

Yes, I am one of those that use the self-service lines at grocery stores and Walmart. Like I said above, I am one of the rare few, it seems, that can
use self-service without issues.
