    The McDonald’s restaurant in Hermiston, Oregon appears to be “outsaucing” customers drive-thru meals. The restaurant on Highway 395 has outsourced one of the most important jobs at the drive-through window — order taking.

    When a customer drives through, they’ll be patched through to Grand Forks, North Dakota to place the order. Why? Because the minimum wage in North Dakota is $5.15, compared to Oregon’s $7.25.
    Tim Nesbit is head of Oregon AFLCIO. He says this undercuts Oregon’s minimum wage by more than $2 an hour.

    A McDonald’s media relations person in Illinois, where the corporate headquarters is based, never returned a phone call to the AP.

    How screwed up is this?!?! McDonalds is shipping minimum wage jobs across statelines to save money?! Just another case of big corporations attempting to save a few bucks on the backs of the lowest paid workers.

    I’ll be adding McD’s to my “do not support” list.
