2. [+680, -33] My grandma's over 80 and she is just barely getting the hang of a smartphone, I can't imagine getting her to work a kiosk ㅠㅠ can stores please just make sure to keep an employee around to help. My grandma loves hamburgers and pizzas, too, you know

5. [+33, -4] I'm in my late thirties... and still sweat in front of a kiosk. Especially when there are people waiting in line behind me. I've had countless moments where I had to give up and stand off to the side. Damned kiosks.

7. [+24, -2] I'm in my early forties and find kiosks nerve-racking as well. I'll add all my items and get to the checkout and then some random menu pops up asking if I want to click add-ons. If I'm not paying attention, it's so easy to add things I don't want.

8. [+22, -0] I'm in my thirties and find it confusing ㅋㅋㅋ the menu items are in big enough font but when you get to the checkout, the font suddenly gets smaller. The + and - buttons are so tiny too ㅋㅋㅋ nevermind adding a coupon or store points to your order. Then you have to go through four pages after you insert your card ㅡㅡ what a waste of time
