Taylorism in the fast food industry

Hah! The Wendy's on New York Avenue in Northeast D.C. must be some kind of anomaly. The drive-thru there takes as long as an hour and a half sometimes (no kidding). The plus side is that the workers tend to pocket whatever money comes through the window or over the counter, rather than putting it into the register. One woman even made change for me out of her purse and everything. An act of on-the-job resistance to the planetary work machine that would make any Autonomist proud.

Ecrasez l'infame,

Alex L.
