    Maybe a good idea to just turn around when you pull up and see there is surge pricing on a fucking cheeseburger.

    Idk if they’re thinking this one through… imagine you pull into the drive through and get stuck in the line then find out one burger meal is $35 today.

      This was my thought. I’m thinking that just taking up the space in line for the drive through will cause issues. Pull up to the kiosk with a line of cars behind and decide that it’s too expensive? Now where do you go? I guess I’ll just sit here for a bit till the line clears in front of me. Oh, sorry I didn’t notice the line had moved, I was ordering food on my phone from a competitor across the street you see…

    Can’t wait to see the Xitter shade war the Wendy’s account is going to be in. Oh, wait, I quit Xitter, so I won’t see it.

    I think the most fucked up part about this is you know the restaurant employees (the ones who actually do the work during these surges) won’t see a cent of this extra profit and 100% of it will go straight to the shareholders and executives.
