the clerk handed across an empty plastic cup, thumping hollowly on the counter, another job outsourced to the customer.
I seriously disagree that moving the drink fountains out to the customer is a disadvantage to the customer.
I like that I can have more or less ice. I like free refills. I like that I could sample bits of other drinks or intermix.
McD is mostly irrelevant to me nowadays, as all McDs around here are horribly run. The "fresh beef grilled to order" claim is an outright lie, and hygiene is problematic.
The menu board thing is also fatal to me. One has to wait 90 seconds for the full menu to rotate through, and even then, finding sandwich-only prices is like playing a bad video game.
