Due to the $15 hour minimum wage, sky rocketing Health Care for their employees, the bane of technology?

I personally do not like it.
Do not eat at Subway much. Just went to eating there never.

• Self-order kiosks in select locations, digital menu boards, Apple and Samsung Pay

The restaurant design features a veggie display with whole tomatoes, green peppers, onions and cucumbers that are sliced daily in the restaurant, plus new bread and cookie displays on the front of the line

We’ve created a modern design that gives our guests choices – from how they order, to how they pick up their food, to how they enjoy their meal,”

I won't be seen in that parking lot. I don't need to be told how to enjoy a meal or a restaurant experience.

So what is you issue with the change in design?
I, or my grandson, eat at subway a bit. We live in an area where min. wage is NOT 15$/hr and I seriously doubt the part time employees get health care.
Most often subway, any of them, are fairly busy. Sometimes there is only one employee to take the order, make the sandwich and run the register. I dont think a kiosk and self pay are a bad idea.

False. The $15 minimum wage is not the cause of the existence of these kiosks. The only city in America with a $15 minimum wage is Seattle. Subway installed these kiosks to reduce labor costs in general, whether they were $8/hour or $12/hour.

A $15 minimum wage will accelerate the use of them.

$15 an hour wage is not just in Seattle. At current yes. Although, other cities have voted it in and on their way there.

If Subway is fairly busy I vote for hiring more people not putting in machines to take their work.

I saw these in a McD's the other day. This particular McD's paid $9.20 an hour, not $15. (it was on the sign out front).
