Technology Alert!

You've probably heard on the news how fast food companies are experimenting with 'call centres' for their drive-thru windows. The model shown was a place in St. Louis, but the order was taken in San Diego. This could be next!!

oh, i see. nevermind….

hyperbole has its place. scaring the rabble is a side effect that should be avoided.

Hey, no worries. If you think this is a coming thing. Don't worry about it. Why not? That's because it's already here. I've seen examples of it already in use. This is nothing new… Yawn….

The call center idea is certainly already in use. Hehehe, I highly doubt that they really track that much info though. :-P

I highly doubt that they really track that much info though.

Yet!

At our restaurant, plugging your phone number into our computer brings up your address, your regular order, your last order, your method of last payment, any special instructions from your last order, and any contact name you (or anyone from the same #) have given.

Why do you think there are so many loyalty cards out there?
they are gathering information on your buying habits. where you get gas how much gas you buy what groceries you buy and what brands. You have air miles, aeroplan, hbc, shoppers optimum, all are methods of gathering information in return for your loyalty they offer you gifts while they compile a data bank on you. I was asked a while back if I would join a U OF S research project where they wanted to collect DNA for a data bank… ya right as if … I filed those papers into the shredder. It is out there and being refined every day. Look at Saskachewan health now if you go to a clinic or give blood or have blood test or go to the hospital they all have all your medical information at the touch of a few keys. 911 and police and fire department and ambulance are also all linked in together and all of those have a link to sask tel private files including any unlisted phone number when you think of it …one must really wonder. This new privacy act ? bull crap if the government wants the information they have it.
