  This is how they had to dress. Even the cashiers and cooks had to be business casual. And they had to buy the uniforms out of their wages.

  Today they wouldn’t be able to afford to, but that’s what stagnant minimum wage and soaring corporate profits has gotten us.

    I don’t know about your area but mine is nearly all those slow ass Touch kiosks. At best there is one person manning the till.

    It would amuse me greatly if they dressed up the kiosks like this though.

      Now I’m imagining a Total Recal / Demolition Man universe where a snappily-dressed hologram cashier takes your order while smiling and making eye contact with the wrong point in space. The occasional glitch or static for bonus points.

      You may not be able to actually talk to her; she may just respond to your touch-screen selections.

      Coming soon!
