Talk:Drive-through

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Is the usual system that you place your order at one window, then drive to another one and collect it?

I have also added information about these restaurants being locations where young men go to present their newly-bought or newly-modified cars.

[edit] Other drive-throughs?

What about including Drive through ATM machines, drive through pharmacy services etc? --Coffeelover 17:17, 3 September 2005 (UTC)

In 2005, one major fast food company announced plans to take drive through orders from a central location, the theory being that dedicated order takers would make fewer errors than the in-store order takers.

Which company is this? Any sources? --Arm 23:46, 20 October 2005 (UTC)

In the Spring of 2005 McDonald's announced that an undisclosed number of their stores were testing outsourced drive-through order taking. The voice repeating an order to a customer may belong to a person at a central call center in North Dakota (or Colorado Springs, depending on who's reporting it), who then electronically relays the order to the restaurant. What’s being measured is whether off-site order-takers — who aren’t distracted by the need to make fries or count change — can reduce the number of incorrectly entered orders, McDonald’s CFO Matthew Paull told analysts in March.
