Why should the customers be helping McDonald’s save money on staffing costs? If I’m doing the work of a cashier, I want a discount for my labor.

This debate you are having seems frivolous, until I remember that in the future the sectarian Star-Wars wars will ravage the few human survivors of the climate apocalypse.

Dear Please-Settle-This-For-Me,

I was just about to ask if you grew up poor before I read down to this comment. Being anti-leftover is a classic trait of a former poor.
