McDonalds Has Jumped the Shark
I knew that McDonalds had "jumped the shark" when, on a drive south from NY to TV, I stopped in South Carolina for a quick iced coffee in the middle of the afternoon. Several people were working the counter and kitchen, only a couple customers eating, and I was the only person waiting at the counter. They took my order and money and gave me one of those electronic restaurant devices that notify you when your table is ready. I couldn't believe it. After more than five minutes, my device lit up and my iced coffee was ready. Really? Fast food? That was (hopefully) my last visit ever to a McDonalds.
