It was an interesting obervation Lil2rich, but consider a few things...

1. This is not a great job flipping burgers. The fact that no white people work there should make you a little sympathetic.
2. I dated a very intelligent white girl that worked at McDonalds for 6 years. She was an IB student and now is in grad school at a very nice university... She was working there because she enjoyed it and had a good experience with the company from an early age and used the money to pay for college and support her family -- and helped my ass out too!
3. Trying to solve things from the bottom of an organization or structure isn't usually a smart way to make changes. Think of how you could approach this problem -- map out more stores, demographics, etc... start your own fast-food store, etc... but I think you will find the problem is very complex... there are people that spend their whole life researching this problem...
4. Think about it from the girl's perspective. Maybe she thought you "didn't want a ****** touching your food" -- you might think that doesn't happen in this day and age, but it does. I was just in Dennys last week and a bunch of drunk cowboys were in there -- as they left they yelled out to one of the black servers "we didn't want your ****** ass touching our food" or something like that... You don't know what she was thinking -- she didn't know what you were thinking.
