I’m not sure how I feel about visiting a fast-food location that doesn’t have any employees available to assist you getting your food. But no matter my feelings, that is the way of the future as there is a McDonald’s restaurant in Fort Worth, Texas that is already completely automated, it’s the first one ever. 

There is a video that is getting lots of attention online that shows how simple the process seems to go. The video is short, only about 47 seconds long, so I do still wonder how long the entire process took from ordering the food to having the food released to the customer in the drive thru line. The person in the video seemed very happy with the experience and everything seemed to work very smoothly.
