  1. in 1980 I was 12 years old working at McDonalds making 1.65 an hour and working 40 to 60 hours a week, it was great, the place was clean and the entire crew was fast and we had people lined up out the door. but now, no, now they have nasty lazy igmo's and now they call 3 people in line a rush because they cant handle it, and yet they think they should be paid 15 an hour, hahhaha but they are not worth .20 cents an hour. ooh back then in 1980. we had no ghetto people working in such places, now yes it was illegal back then for a 12 year old to work that much and doing the fry machine. but we was not snowflakes back then like what kids are now. I even lost part of my ear from working at age 12 at McDonalds, it was -60 with wind chill and I walked 1 mile to work at 5 a.m. to be there to open the store. and I was 12, I was also very mature for my age. people didn't see me as being 12, they thought I was 23 for some reason. ooh did I forget to mention, we was not snowflakes back then. I was also the only kid in the entire school who made and had 1,000 dollars in the bank, the way minimum wage worked in my state it was legal to pay the lower 1.65 an hour to kids, I also got paid 15 dollars for cutting the grass at each McDonalds store location. I would submit my bill for cutting the grass to the main office, and then I started my own lawn service. so I hope all the idiots who think they are worth so much more do lose their jobs to such automation. as you cant deal with the job you got now.

  2. most of those jobs for doing maintenance on the robots that are made in china and shipped to the US have Chinese support labor just like the electric generating wind mills, its in the service contract. so think about who the jobs are going to

  3. yeah I like how he is wanting more money to go to china to buy the machines and all the extra money for the maintenance of them, just like in the big electric wind mill generators, its in the service contract that we must pay china for the service of the wind mills, that US labor can only do basic clean up on them. so think about where the money and jobs go for such things. and then take a look at the source of who is telling you this. then maybe you will discover, its a Chinese growth thing

  4. what this guy didn't tell you is, the machines are made in china and sent to the US and in the service contract must use Chinese labor for the machine maintenance. same is true for the big electric wind mill generators, its in the service contract. us labor on them is only for cleaning the machines. nothing more. fox news and this democrat didn't tell you that to deceive you into thinking in a different way that you normally would not, so think about where all that money will be going. and the jobs,

  5.  @Sacred-Heart-of-Jesus829  right now in the last 3 days my local Walmart shut down over half the check out lanes and now its 75% self check out. McDonalds also has been trying to automat but they paid for a very user unfriendly program that is hard to use, and even if you use the self order and pay screen the low IQ people working there forget about the order, so people have learned to not use the self order machine
