Remember, McDonalds isn't a fast food company. It's a landlord. The McD's you go to are franchisees renting off actual McD, the landlord, under a pretty restrictive contract.
If McD is still the landlord I see no reason at all why they'd object to this.
Very restrictive. You know the website that exists solely to check and see if your local MickeyD's ice cream machine is up? That works because every major piece of equipment in a McDonald's reports back to HQ on a regular basis.
Answer: It's never up because it's a piece of shit machine.
It's actually a pretty good machine, it's just that corporate declared that they have to be taken apart every 8 hours. By teenagers. And then sued the company that built a kit to solve all the problems that caused.
Isn't that the basically the of whats happened or is this a different event you're referring to?
Doesn't matter how 'good' the machine is if it's constantly broken though, across the country 11.65% are busted as of right now per that mcd's shake machine tracker site.
