You could probably fully automate a McDonald’s and have it just be, like, a big vending machine if they didn’t care about ~friendly atmosphere~. Maybe there are problems with this I am not seeing? 

Best I can think of is a) Most normies are extroverts, to the point that a robot McD’s would feel alienating to them, beyond just removing the ~friendly atmosphere~. and b) maybe the technology for some parts of the work is less mature than for others, and we’re waiting on a missing step?


Also, without human staff a place like that would be vandalism-bait; that doesn’t really explain why the big vending machine plus one or two security guys isn’t a thing though.

Reason A is what I meant when I said friendly atmosphere.

Food, Folks, and Fun.
