Wait till the rats start robbing the customers. I can see it now... Rats steal their food off the table, then they leave and go find thieves stole their car. Par for the course.

Re: Mcdonald's Workers in Oakland, California Go On Strike Due To Rats
This is a very janky McDonalds. It is on the edge of Downtown Oakland in what historically hasn't been a great area. Right before COVID they were just about finishing with a very nice large apartment/condo complex across the street and fixing up some other nearby buildings in an effort to revive the area. Oakland was actually showing signs of some recovery before COVID. The big problem I saw with this location and this apartment/condo development was it was too far from a BART. Of course things haven't worked out at all the way they were intended to for the new apartment/condo building... and the surrounding area is more blighted and vandalized than ever at the present time.
This McDonalds probably shouldn't be there, definitely shouldn't have a drive through, and clearly has been trying to hide something. As recently as last summer it was still "drive through only" following COVID restrictions. Supposedly they had started to open the inside more recently.
