I’m honestly surprised the corps haven’t done this to all of their drive-thrus.

I mean every time I go through a drive through I'm asked if I'm going to use the app to order by one person (or ai but I know about 20 years ago Wendy's tried to put all drive through orders through a remote facility too) and when I say Nope another person actually gets on and takes the order...so they are in many aspects. Hell you can't order in person from some of the rest stop fast food spots in Florida.

No, that is just a pre-recorded message. I once went through a mcdonald's drive thru that had just closed. They asked me for my order and after I gave it, I realized no one was in the restaurant. I pulled around and they asked me again every time I stopped at the order point, but there was no cars in the lot.

You're assuming McDonald's employees are rich enough to afford cars.
