Oh, y'all still have wait staff?

We have "digital kitchens" now: https://stories.whataburger.com/whataburger-debuts-new-digital-kitchen-all-the-flavor-with-more-convenience/

Same wait without the staff, tables . . . or blackjack

Placing your order ahead for pick up at the new Digital Pick-up Lane allows our teams in the restaurant, whom we call Family Members, to deliver fresh, made to order food while reducing your time in the drive thru.

If that's how they treat family, what do they do with strangers?

Take their money in exchange for what many consider "food," typically.

I didn't believe you for a moment there but yes guys it does say Family Members on the site and is incredibly cringe.

Reminds me of the bars around here that have replaced the wait staff, or maybe the whole wait staff but one overworked person, with QR codes that go to their online ordering system.

I've started avoiding them because it always takes forever to find someone when we have a question about the menu, want something specially made or customized, or have a question about an advertised deal or item, etc.

And that's why this shit won't catch on, people like you who don't immediately jump on "The new thing"
