DUBLIN, Ohio (AP) - A new study finds that Wendy's offers the
speediest drive-thrus in the fast-food, or quick-service
restaurant, business.

QSR Magazine reports that a survey conducted by Insula Research
found a trip through the drive-thru at Wendy's averages just 2
minutes and 11 seconds.

The researchers also say the number of drive-thru customers has
been declining at Wendy's, which tends to mean faster service
times.

Wendy's finished fourth overall for drive-thru service when
other factors were considered, including how accurately orders are
filled.

Chick-fil-A ranked first, followed by McDonald's and Burger
King.

Wendy's International Inc. is based in the Columbus suburb of
Dublin. The chain is now owned by Atlanta-based Triarc Cos. Inc.

Sure, let's pay teachers, too, based on how well they perform instead of longevity only. Many of them won't get paid as much. If you recall, Dems took over Congress in 2006 and the economy started to go down. Obama SUED mortgage companies to force them into lending money to people who could not afford the loans. The DEMS did not want to fix the problem 2 years ago when MCCAIN wanted to fix it. Also, Obama's campaign received a ton of money from Fannie and Freddie. The corrupt CEO's are working for him now. Yeah, let's get him in the oval office where he can appoint the 2 biggest scammers to even more powerful positions and take us for even more money. NO THANK YOU!! Obama will REVERSE the tax breaks the low and middle class received under Bush. MCCAIN wanted more regulation on these people. Get your facts straight before you pull that lever. BTW... how amazing is it that it is Bush's fault people are working at fast food?! At least they have a job and are contributing to society.

Seriously, how is this news?? How about instead of worrying about how long it takes to get the greasy, heart attack on a bun, you go home and make a decent healthy meal.
