The fast food joints will soon be adding a lot of new, higher paying, jobs. The new federal minimum wage, promised by the Dims, will bring about the automated systems for fast food retailing.
As unionizing of farm workers led to new machinery that replaced thousands of farm works in the lettuce fields for example. Pickers were replaced with higher paying technical jobs, for those that operate and maintain the new automated equipment. Far fewer of them, but better paid by far.
I was recently in one of the new automated hamburger joints with my great grandson. It has 1/5 as many workers per shift. All one needs to do is press a picture of what you want to eat and drink, pick it up from the slots and pay the ONE person out front. ;)
