Yah, would you like Fries with that?
Looks like IT isn't the only thing that is being outsourced. It seems that taking orders at the drive up window is too hard ot time consuming for people working at 14 McDonalds in the Northwest (Oregon and Washington). So McD's brought in a call center based in Grand Forks ND. When you roll up to one of these McD's the voice that is talking to you isn't actually in the building. Which I guess is a good thing, because people were starting to wonder why everybody working at McDonald's in Oregon had a North Dakota accent. Personally it seems like alot of work to get your order. Anyways here's your link to a news story: Outsourced McD's
