A New Kind Of OutsourcingThis time not to India, but to North Dakota. And it's not call centers, but drive-thru windows. The McDonald's restaurant in Hermiston, Oregon appears to be "outsaucing" customers drive-thru meals.I think I remember reading about this happening before, and thought I linked to it, but I couldn't find it in my archives. Oh well...At least the jobs are staying in the U.S. Posted by Jake on 02/02/05 @ 11:43 AM
