I bet the ice cream machine is 100% operational.

"Oh, I'm afraid the ice cream machine will be quite operational when your friends arrive."

Operational? Yes, but it's having an existential crisis right now. It's father was acrobat at an car manufacturer and it's mother was an industrial grade laundry machine. It just wants to take some time to really find itself, y'know? Maybe back off a little?

Zoom in when the video shows the inside. There’s a sign that says, “Sorry, our ice cream machine is down.” /s 🤷🏼‍♂️🤣

Fun fact: the myth that the ice cream machine is always broken at McDonalds is a thing because when people ask, the employee says it's "broke down", meaning the machine has been taken apart either for the night because they're about to close or just for a while so that they can clean it. Or they just don't want to make your shake.

Are the robots able to spit in the food?

Just metal shavings and plastics now, sad.

Just Johnny #5 jizz

Or smash the lettuce with their shoes

There are real people working there. Making the food…

Robots can't clean the kitchen either.. so it's basically just no servers and a conveyer belt to take orders to the window?

Are you saying other McDonald's employees are not real. Good bc I believe we are in a simulation also

For now, the robots will be cooking the food soon enough...

It’s a magic box and food comes out! Ight!?!

That's not a fucking robot thats just a conveyor belt.

And I know I was at a McD or BK in the 80’s with a similar drive through setup

I honestly don’t get how people don’t understand this. My local McDonald’s is on a hill, the prep room is upstairs, and a conveyer belt with claw delivers the food down to the window. It’s been that way for I dunno how long… but at least 10 years since I first went there.

Wait till this guy goes to a revolving sushi bar restaurant lol…

Interesting point you made. The first day of process automatization my profesor after making a introduction to the course asked: What is a robot? Which lead to what an what is an automatization process. We are robot in a sense. Its a interesting mental problem.

To whom Karen will shout about her orders now?

Imagine if they gave it the voice of Hal.

Karens are losing their jobs 😢

THIS will be the moment the robots rise up against us. It starts by defeating Karen, it ends with the Matrix

Can't wait for the 1st video of some yahoo jumping thru the window and fucking shit up inside.....hopefully they have armed drones at the ready.

it's texas, everything is armed....even their guns are armed.

It's a military base. Nobody is risking fucking their whole platoon and getting beaten by 12 socks filled with soap bars.

I will post that in maybe Maybe Maybe

Whoever chose the music for this video should be dipped head first in the fryer.

I don't know why it got popular all of a sudden on TikTok. Every time I hear it now, it's all pitchy and disoriented. Can't really compare to Lady Gaga though. Like how can anyone just listen to pitchy mixes like this.

I know it sucks!!!!

[удалено]

Dont forget the shit music!

But what if this malfunctions and you don't get your food?

Bad luck man, they got your money already

Things are going to get hilarious when these places start getting hacked.

More of a conveyor than a robot. When they're also cooking the food, I'll be impressed.

Who do I talk to about this wrong order, hello.....

“I’m sorry, I didn’t catch that. Could you repeat?” Just like a robo-phone call it just disconnects you!

Weird. I thought Texas needed to build a wall because illegals were taking jobs away from hard working Americans. Illegals = bad. Robots = good. American workers = they do not really care

Why do so many vocalist try to sound like Alvin and the chipmunks now?

They don't. That's a Lady Gaga song. Some content creators just edit the music that way as a way to get past copyright and fair use systems.

I am guessing the vast majority of the work is still done by humans inside. This is just a way to hand people their food

Former service industry here, I'd be fine with this. Let the robots take all the abuse. I'll be in the back happily making some burgers in peace.

Really, nobody has said it yet???

Be great if they just moved them all into the kitchen for better cooking.

Dook ar derrrbs!

Automate jobs that robots can do and raise the wage for work that robots can’t do

They will never pay you more than they have to because that would mean they aren’t making as much as they possibly can.

Robot still tells me ice cream machine is down

So the price comes down right? Since they don’t have to employee more underpaid folks to work longer hours and clean up the indoor dining area? Oh, the price just keeps going up? Makes sense! Breaking through with this technology…

CEO needs another boat you heartless scumbag.

Good way to solve the complaints about the minimum wage.

It’s so strange to me that robots eventually replacing jobs threatens the wellbeing of millions in our economic system. In a logical world it would a great thing for everyone, freeing up time and energy for humanity so they can focus more meaningful things than flipping burgers.

a Karen still going complain somehow

This is only for non-dining experience. I believe they will still need employees for dine in

Surely replacing workers to save money will lead to their existing employees getting raises, right? Right?!

I mean, tbf, robots are probably better at that gig

They will still forget the ranch

We are witnessing the beginning of the end of the humans.. and we still don't realize...

the song ruined it

Probably keeps their employees safe from dealing with customers.

This looks really depressing.

Do you want to work at McDonald’s? I know I don’t, and I’m not alone. It’s really difficult for businesses like this to keep employees.

There is a taco bell like that by my place. No interaction with people. At least they still make the food.

False… there are workers in the kitchen you just don’t see them. This is phase 3 of McDonald’s plan. They want to not have any workers by 2030

Hmmm.... orders made correctly and in a predictable amount of time? Yes, please.

I can see humans will have less chance to work and big companies dominating everything

Texas already pays people crap with no benefits. Now they just don’t have to do either… you can keep Texas.

Cool so the prices are lower to reflect the lower cost of wages right?

You still have to pay for the 'bots.....

Who put up the wet floor sign?

If i realize want extra ketchup by the time i get my food, who can help me?

We're all going to be robot technicians in the future.

Who do you talk with when the order is screwed up?

Might actually make McDonald’s a better experience overall… unfortunately 😂

Legit question...

I just went to one yesterday, and the order taker was a robot. But it did it a good job. I imagine there will be a lot of morons who will have issues with it.

As someone who works at the drive thru I can not count the many times customer will miss pronounced words all the time or do not know how to order. A few examples are can I get the can I get the burger with the meat sorry which one did you want you know the one with the bread and the meat. Or this one cheese burger no cheese on it. My favorite one was when some one ask me for a deluxe quarter pounder but can you make it plain and add mac sauce. That one was funny. Sometimes it funny sometimes it annoying depending if you only 1 hour in to your shift or 10 hours in

But the usual assholes are still flipping the burgers and running the machines right…?

Ice cream machine still doesn’t work though

Buy’n’Large here we come

Extra Big Ass Fries

Ummmmm no thanks

"I'm afraid I can't make that order, Dave."

Domo arigato Mister Roboto Domo.

Does it come with annoying singing minions? Future generations will cringe at this annoying ass music.

Is the hashbrown a dollar again?

This is what happens when you want a living wage for what should be a HighSchool kids job.

Feels like the chum bucket

Qualifies as highly processed foods

Show me the food

Do we think this is going raise or lower the amount of fight videos from various McDonalds locations that we typically see posted in

I was just in Ft. Worth today! I’m going to have to find this place and check it out for further information! (Yeah, that’s the kind of geek I am!)

In a time where people are complaining about losing their jobs to automation, and with as red a state as Texas is, I'm slightly surpised everyone is on board. I'm glad they are, but mildly surpised.

Lmao Texas is skimping on the power grid for automated fast food

I've got a mcdonalds by me that uses the automation to take orders. It does pretty well but it still needs an operator listening because it's gotten my order wrong and had trouble fixing it.

Do they have a sensitive, understanding and sympathetic robot manager to take the complaints from the Karens?

Better be a lot fucking cheaper!

I live in Italy and in all the McDonald's I've been to they served me old burgers warmed up in the microwave the majority of times. I've been served freshly cooked meals probably 10 times on, let's say, 200ish. Does this happen in other countries aswell?

The food is still made by people, this is Justin’s to fix the serving problem in Americanecause of the abuse they like to give out to Minimum Wageworkers.

This is not why SpongeBob SquarePants got into the business :(

They figured out how to have robots give you your food.

I'm in Dallas...do I want to fight traffic on 30 to try this out?

I’m gonna go tomorrow.

So can you stil pay with cash?

This is in a pretty rough neighborhood. You can see the West Freeway Church of Christ in the background where 3 people were shot during a service. It's the pointed roof.

There's probably still people in the building cooking your food, this will just limit social interaction

Finally we are seeing positive impact from $15/hr!

Probably saves a lot on the expenses

Those robots will still fuck up my order

The important thing does it give you plenty of ketchup and ranch

Wonder when they'll condense it into a vending machine. That would be neat.

Bet you ALL those bags have straws and napkins.

They took rrr' Jobs!

Whats stopping anyone from just going behind the counter and looting

A terminator.

Karen’s gonna be pissed!

They took ur jobs

Pretty soon the prices will go up because “robot maintenance “ isn’t cheap. 😐

People arguing that were dumb to let robots take our jobs.. They're not seeing the big picture... Robots don't have eat McDonald's... So who's the dumb one now Ronald?

Ice cream machine still gonna be broken

bear this in mind that Texas is at the federal minimum wage, at a measly $7. And tbf, i would never eat at a spot served by robots/drones. Bender can bite my fleshy ass

Does the food look like the pictures now?

So basically a giant vending machine shaped like a restaurant

The world is going to shit. Won’t be any jobs left except robotic mechanics…

And that's exactly why I'm all for it. Robot maintenance pays better than flipping burgers

Ice cream machine still broke 😂😂😂

THEY TAKIN ERRR JEERRRBS

Is the food cheaper? They’re not paying wages so the items must be cheaper right?

I doordash and McDonald's always takes forever.

Not sure how I feel about this, fast good jobs are good for teenagers or people needing a second job.

Had to be in america 🤦‍♂️

Does the ice cream machine work?

Texas... Where else

boringdystopia

Now I really don't want that crap. Reminds me of the Jetsons

On the one hand, people don't have to work at McDonald's anymore. On the other hand, how do people get paid?

Plot twist….it’s Solient Green

Karen ain’t gonna like this

As a graphic designer this is upsetting

I hate it

“Robots” is a strong word for “conveyor belt”. I already consider “fast food” to be a euphemism for “factory food” so this really completes the production line imo. Don’t bring robots into this

aboringdystopia

Now who will Karen complain to?!

You should see the new Amazon fulfillment center... Interesting to see how it handles rush hour...

Wow such a nice cafe charm to the food factory. This is peak capitalism. We where sold on robots would free us to relax and not work but doesn't seem to work when you have a debt society so have no means of income to feed house you. We need balance before this becomes the norm.

Unhappy meals for kids these days

Where in Fort Worth

Boycott

Seems like a lot of work just so they dont have to pay workers a fair wage.

I picture the people buying from here are the same people who complain about technology or other countries taking away American jobs.

Imagine thinking this isn't the future

Abject horror

Is the ice cream machine still broken though?

That’s a sign you shouldn’t be eating it

I'm in Canada and my local Korean BBQ has serving robots. They're essentially automated food carts that can go to specific tables, follow staff, etc. And they have little screens on top with cute smiley faces.

Fast food is literally the worst & most thankless job that exploits workers… let it be robots honestly

how much the robots cost?

Imagine trying to ask for extra sauce at the window or tell them if something was missing from your bag

Honestly, I thought this type of thing would be cool, but really it’s just kind of depressing. Forced human interaction is pretty much the only kind I get anyway these days.

Who will miserable assholes verbally assault if there are no defenseless teenagers to yell at.

And they will still find a way to fuck up your order

They will probably want a 30% tip - such is the American way

There has to be humans cooking it, getting food from the freezer to the grill would be an insanely complex task for a robot

So how's that $15/hr working out for ya?

It's only a matter of time before the savings are passed along to us valued customers!

Is the ice cream machine broken there too

Andrew Yang

Hell yeah, replace the lowest paid person with an overly complicated conveyor belt that will inevitably require high expenses for maintenance and repairs. I just can't possibly see how this is any different from the other massively expensive attempts to replace the lowest paid person with technology /s

Damn illegal robots taking all the jobs.

For assholes like me that hate everyone, life is getting better!

I'm Carl's junior, fuck you

Lmao I knew mcdonalds was slowly gonna move away from having to pay labor

So is the food made by robots too, of have they just replaced the customer facing roles with computers and a conveyor belt?

The ice cream machine is still broken

I foresee some mentally ill person or homeless walking in and trashing the place or taking a shit on the floor in the middle of the store

Very troubling.

That place is the most gross restaurant there is, machine or employees.

Ray Kroc's wet dream! Finally a McDonalds where every last person possible is fucked out of a living. Absolute Unit of a McDonalds.

The background song gave me cancer.

I keep hearing from people on Reddit that customer service will never be replaced by robots… and that ChatGPT will never contribute to that either.

R/antiwork here’s the result of your efforts. This was inevitable. Now continue eating that fast food that’ll also kill you from the inside.

Doesnt matter if People were getting paid 15/hr or 5/hr , this was going to happen.

Here we go boys. You want $20 an hour? Nah we got robots , go touch grass.

Can’t believe people still eat this garbage.

There's something dystopian about the wall that says "Happiness fits in the bag", without a single human around.

The solution to the kids demanding $15/hour for their first job…

My dishwasher is more of a robot than this conveyor belt.

Didn’t know Skynet was a McDonald’s franchise owner.

Oh cool I get to sit in drive thru for 20 mins while the ice cream machine fixes itself

Did they drop the prices since there’s no longer any labor overhead?

Lowering fast food workers wages will not stop this from happening

Well, if I didn't want $20/hr this wouldn't have happened so quickly

It's anti-Karen technology

Very cool tech but scary at the same time

Bet they still wont get my order right

Just companies trying not to pay ppl to work for them.

Remember when Mc Donald's was heaven for kids, bright colors, toys, games, ballons .... now it's just sad beige and brown .

You're telling me there's a chance my order won't be screwed up?

So you care more about cheap cheeseburgers than other Americans?
