I like technological innovation as much as anyone, but QR codes are not making life easier for anyone.

I don’t care. A disposable menu can’t cost more than a quarter. I’m pretty sure they can absorb that cost.
Or just do what my local Chipotle does and charge whatever they fvcking feel like charging.And then they have to throw out 500 menus if they're forced to raise the price of something. Or just not sell it at all. Or scratch it out with pen. Or whatever. It's a problem.
Is that true?
What I think we know is that the original belief that virus survival on surfaces posed a more dangerous vector than airborne virus was incorrect. But it is still the case that the virus can and does survive on surfaces for a while (depending on the surface). It's less of a risk than previously thought but it's a non-zero risk.
If you know of data showing it's a zero risk, I'd be interested.
If it's a risk you want to take, that's entirely up to you.
Personally, I still avoid restaurants.
I have gotten somewhat lax about spraying deliveries, though.
Jeebus, I had no idea you were still living in abject fear. Look, there is a non zero chance you will die driving to the park. There is a non zero chance a tree will fall on you while you are walking in the park. So do you avoid parks?
What a weird hill to die on. Not surprising given you and your wife's response to COVID even early on. It's weird because you seem so level headed about other things and then just go scorched earth on this subject.
Most restaurants I’ve been to that have QR codes for menus also have signs saying they will provide a printed menu upon request.Well, the overreaction in the OP was primarily for humorous affect. But it annoying to me that some business are using COVID as an excuse to lower the customer experience. A year ago I stopped going to restaurants that still used plastic silverware. Because there were other options. Now I’m tired of using my phone for a menu.
I have wondered what they would do if some old couple comes in and says “we don’t have phones. Can we see a menu?”
That’s the funny part, germs on menus. If you went back and looked at the kitchen you wouldn’t eat there anyway.That won’t give me a god damn menu. We’ve known for two years that COVID doesn’t spread on surfaces you irrational dumb phuques. I am done scanning QR code’s and scrolling through menus on my phone.
No one here is surprised your still living like this. When will you finally decide it’s safe for to come out? Is there a certain positivity or hospitalization rate you are waiting for?Is that true?

I’m not as bothered by this as you, but I agree, it’s just not the same squinting at my iPhone while I hold the phone two inches from my face.That won’t give me a god damn menu.

How does a paper menu improve one’s experience?F them if they lack of concern for their customer’s experience.
Now I’m tired of using my phone for a menu.
This has to be a joke post right?Is that true?

Not touching a physical menu is a step in the right direction. They don’t wash menus, some dudes don’t wipe after they shit, so in my mind there is shit on the menu.
They "don't wipe after they shit"?
Correct. Some dudes even have to start their own thread to brag about how they cooked Dinty Moore all on their own.
But if they don't wipe after they shit, how is it that shit ends up on the menu?

What a first world problem you have. Stay home you whiney bitch.

Agree about business reaction. Many stores kept fitting rooms closed way too long using covid as an excuse, and this seems like a similar situation to me. I do recall seeing prices crossed out and written in during the 1970s, but menus were always around because there was no e-option. I don't buy the idea that increasing prices are sufficient justification to not have them available.Well, the overreaction in the OP was primarily for humorous affect.

Or just do what my local Chipotle does and charge whatever they fvcking feel like charging.
A few weeks ago a cashier punched in my order and said “It’s $9.20.”
“Why are you charging me $9.20?”
“Because you bought a steak burrito.” (A little too sarcastic for my liking)
I then pointed to the giant ass menu board behind him that says steak burritos are $8.30. Dude just shrugged his shoulders as if to say “it is what it is.” So I handed him a $10 bill and walked out of Chipotle for the last time.
I get that prices are going up. I don’t mind paying $9.20 for a burrito if that’s what a burrito costs. But charge me what the sign says and don’t be a dick about it.

Okay, boomer....That won’t give me a god damn menu. We’ve known for two years that COVID doesn’t spread on surfaces you irrational dumb phuques. I am done scanning QR code’s and scrolling through menus on my phone.
No idea. If I got overcharged 50 bucks on a refrigerator or 300 bucks on a vehicle then I would look into that. It’s not worth my time to fight for 90 cents that I got overcharged on a burrito. It’s a whole lot easier to just not go back again.Does your state have no laws regarding truth in advertising or bait and switch pricing?
I always have a good laugh when I see a group of young idiots waiting outside in the rain with a perplexed look on their face when the door says Pull.I always have a good laugh at what boomers/dinosaurs will complain about.
Boomer humor is almost as good as conservative humor. Good stuff, man.I always have a good laugh when I see a group of young idiots waiting outside in the rain with a perplexed look on their face when the door says Pull.
mmm you convinced me to dine out this week.Not touching a physical menu is a step in the right direction. They don’t wash menus, some dudes don’t wipe after they shit, so in my mind there is shit on the menu.
