The latter - everything normal inside, but only one register and nobody manning it. When I asked if I could place an order I was told they only take orders through the kiosks. This was between 2 and 3 years ago but I experienced it in multiple locations.
Just another anecdote but I used to travel the country for work and it did feel like more and more McDonalds would not let you place an order with a person inside. I specifically remember this happening in 4 different cities in Florida.
Amen. Why should I be less good just because lots of other people suck?
Agreed. I enjoy that I confused “because of” with “because have” in my own example tho
Hah! I mightn’t’ve thought enough about that example, probably because of a lack of sleep.
I don’t know if shouldn’t’ve is grammatically correct but I hear it a lot so it seems like fair play. Same for other contractions that I never see in text, possibly because they’re wrong. Because’ve. He’d’ve.
Also like I’ma which can’t possibly be ok, but “I am going to” is for suckers.
Why is it not expected that they’ll release a document that says:

Indiana. We’d fail so hard and so fast that I literally cannot imagine it. People are nuts. It’d be instant MAGA-flavored Mad Max if they felt like they had an excuse to preemptively defend themselves with their guns across the countryside.
Oh, to be as famous as wood
Will this severe mental disorder help me qualify for disability?
Post presidency lol
There was also a “Jathan” and it wath tho hard to thay hith name without thlipping into a lithp.
I’ve encountered a lot of the reverse of this. Danielle pronounced “Dah Nell”. Brittany pronounced “Brih Tanny”. Jonathan pronounced “Joe Nathan”.
Hol up I’m OOTL why are supply chains collapsing in 10 days or so
I don’t know why we make excuses for people who voted for this. I was raised by undereducated republican parents in rural Indiana, I went to public school, I didn’t go to college, and I work in a factory in my extremely red home town. Didn’t vote for this. Never would. Education isn’t what makes me different, it’s empathy and the tinest bit of effort to understand the world I live in.
I used to make 100k at a job that I knew I wouldn’t be physically able to do in my 40s and 50s. Conventional wisdom says save it, build a big nest egg, plan for the future. Fuck that, I ate and drank and traveled it all away. 41 years old now making 30k. I’ve been everywhere, done everything I ever wanted. No regrets.
The replies here are disappointing but not surprising. If you willfully cross your moral boundaries, those aren’t your moral boundaries.
It’s not fair you should have to make this choice and I don’t believe you deserve the negative consequences of standing by your morals in this situation, but reality doesn’t care about any of that. You still have to make the choice and you still have to deal with the outcome.
No way in hell would I break my own code of ethics for an employer. I’ve said no before and I will again. Sometimes that costs me financially. I feel for you.
Every Bose product with Bluetooth I’ve ever bought was bricked with software updates. Really liked their stuff for a while there because it was great while it worked. I won’t be trusting them again.
