Having worked at a McDick's franchise in the past, my experience was that profit was the excuse. The owner wanted to feel like an aristocrat, showing up in their Bugatti and making proclamations without caring about how they meshed with reality (ex. fewer employees per shift will cause more waste because of the need to pre-cook more to keep up with rush demand).
