LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - McDonald's Corp. wants to outsource your neighborhood drive-through. The world's largest fast-food chain said on Thursday it is looking into using remote call centers to take customer orders in an effort to improve service at its drive-throughs.



"If you're in L.A.... and you hear a person with a North Dakota accent taking your order, you'll know what we're up to," McDonald's Chief Executive Jim Skinner told analysts at the Bear Stearns Retail, Restaurants & Apparel Conference in New York. Call center professionals with "very strong communication skills" could help boost order accuracy and ultimately speed up the time it takes customers to get in and out of the drive-throughs, the company said.

Although he was a padding legend at one time. Like no man has ever seen.

No knock intended. He's prolific.

With the fast reply turned on it's not too bad.

I hate fast reply. I always hit the wrong submit button and have to start all over, which totally makes "fast reply" a moot point.

:shakehead:
