Fast Food Even Faster Back in the early days of McDonald's, the idea was to pop out an inexpensive, quick ham- burger. As we all know, the idea caught on and soon there were a billion sold, then several billion and so on. There have been some changes through the years, such as new food items, more special promotions, Ronald McDonald House, etc., but essentially nothing has changed. You can still get an inexpensive, quick meal at McDonald's. And now you can get it even quicker at McDonald's in Pulaski. Jack and Jeanne Tucker, Owner- Operators for Pulaski's local McDonald's, are quite excited about showing off the newest innovation by the \burger em- porium\. That innovation is what they refer to as \extended booth\ a concept that will turn drive-thru service on its ear by getting customers through the drive-thru with their order in virtually seconds. And why has McDonald's chosen to speed up its already quick service? \We've gone full circle,\ remarked Jack Tucker, \Originally we were a drive up facility. Then customers wanted to eat in a dining area so McDonald's added dining rooms. Now we're moving back to the drive-thru concept so we want to improve service there, too.\ Jeanne Tucker agrees, \McDonald's has always em- phasized convenience and fast service.\ The extended booth, also called the \double bubble\ works in the following 1 way. Customers still give their order at the usual spot. However, they are then told the amount, and sent along to the first window where they will pay. Inside screens then indicate to die workers at the second window what the order is. While the customer pays, the \nin&ers\ are putting together the order, so that by the time tile customer does stop at the second window, the order is ready, and the customer is ready to go. Store Manager Paul McGraw reports that the entire staff has responded well to the challenge of giving even faster service. He and the Tuckers agree that the major key to the operation is training customers. For the crew, \It's really an exercise in coordination,\ says McGraw. \Although the actual process is really not as difficult as it ap- pears,\ said Tucker, \it is an operation that takes dexterity and patience. Fortunately, this McDonald's crew possesses both.\ The fast has indeed gotten faster. Denise LeBeau and Sue Thomas demonstrate the efficiency of McDonald's new system.
