Want Fries With That Outsourcing? 07/19/2004 02:49 AM
theodp writes "The NY Times reports that even restaurant jobs are not immune to outsourcing. Pull into the drive-through of a McDonald's just off U.S. 55 near Cape Girardeau, Missouri, and the person taking your order is more than 900 miles away in a Colorado Springs call center. A McDonald's IT VP says it is 'way, way too early' to tell if the call center idea would work across the chain's 13,000 U.S. restaurants." The claim is that by centralizing this service, it reduces the error rates and gets people through the drive-through faster -- though, it's not entirely clear why that's true.

More chromosomes, more better! BoingBoing reader Roland writes:
Phil Mackey is the general manager of the Mt. Lassen Trout Farms. His 30-pound rainbow trouts are hatched from eggs 'manipulated to produce fish with three sets of chromosomes instead of two.' The Los Angeles Times reports about these freakoid fishes (free registration needed), called 'blasphemy' by some purists because of their strange proportions. The third set of chromosomes renders the trout sterile, 'allowing them to conserve energy that otherwise would be spent on the development of sexual organs or mating,' and so to take more weight. This overview contains additional details about what is a good money-making business and a photo of one of these gargantuan rainbow trouts. Now I repeat my question: would you eat such a 'Frankenfish'?
