I am actually a little surprised that this hasn't happened sooner.
Eventually, many fast food things will be automated as will other simple jobs. Look at grocery stores. Many of them now have the customer automated checkout stands. I can check myself out without having to wait in line. At the store I regularly shop at the auto checkout area has four kiosks and they have 1 person overseeing them. I think we will start seeing more and more of this kind of stuff since they are cheap for the store to operate and work well.
It could be good in the long run because it will force people to learn some kind of skill or trade because they simply won't be able to get a job without it. Of course it could also lead to a huge a separation of wealth and a massive number of people living in abject poverty and thus move us closer to being a third world shithole of a country.
