I agree with the minimum wage and general lack of incentive..but I strongly DISAGREE with the "..REALLY dumb.." part.

I have an Associated degree in Electronic Data Processing and a Bachelor's degree in both Financial Planning and Marketing.
I've also passed several of Mensa's screening tests.

Not all employee's of fast food chains are there because they are too dumb to work anywhere else. In my case, McD's was the best of the VERY few job options in our small town that would fit with my ever-changing college schedule. And I don't regret working there. I gained a lot of my work ethic from that job.

I apologize if I took your Post the wrong way. Maybe you didn't mean it the way it sounded. Either way, I just wanted to point out that some of the employees at fast food places simply don't have many other options, but I agree that they should still do their job correctly and effectively.
