What is with the can on the stick at the drive thru?
Every so often I see drive thru workers taking a can on a stick and touching the ground outside the drive thru window.
What does it do? Who thought this up?
I guess I could ask someone next time I go through the drive thru, but I am at home now.

I know why, sos- speed of service. All fast food restaurants have a certain time they should get out their food. At the close of day the fast food restaurants tally their speed of service for certain shifts. the manager must have a certain time done in order to make thier GM (General manager) happy. Now above drive thru there is a detector that tells when a car in in dirve thru. it times the car for the SOS. Well, a can or a heavy metal object can trick the drivethru into thinking it is a car. So let's say it takes 5 minutes to get out an order, that is reall bad SOS. Well, you swpie the can over and over (probably 10 times and it was like the 5 minutes never happened and you SOS goes down.
