Does Mcdonalds not own the entire linearity of their raw to counter enterprise?
this 3 man team from Kytch i pat on the back with one hand and slap up side the head with my other. 3 hackers, didnt think McDonald’s was gonna shank them?
They already ran down an old lady after they burned her, both physically and socially.
I stayed in a ronald mcdonald house with my single mother as a kid, it was worse than a failing female help center.
if i was Kytch, Id double down. talk to each owner separately and lay out the absurdity of it all and get them back on track to using an ice cream machine to make ice cream and not some lobbyist bullshit power play. Corporations really can and do ruin anything they touch.
McDonald’s has a lot more power over its franchises than many other chains since they own the land under every single location and lease it to franchisees. McDonald’s itself is only tangentially in the restaurant business. Primarily they’re a corporate landlord, marketing company, and kitchen supply broker.
Although there’s a little back and forth because some of the larger franchisees get a lot of input on some of their internal committees. Like with the Taylor ice cream situation, one of the people involved runs one of the larger franchise organizations but also sits on their kitchen equipment committee. He allegedly violated his NDA with Kytch and gave Taylor one of the devices to analyze. Presumably he’s getting a cut of the Taylor-to-McDonald’s Corp kickback money.
Yeah, instead of playing along with this McDonald’s scam, franchisees should just have a seperate ice cream truck out back and direct people there. Leave the machine out of order, no need to call anyone in, and customers can just get ice cream regardless if they wish.
