Donald Trump Reportedly Considering Fast Food CEO For Labor Secretary

[RandySF]

President-elect Donald Trump famously loves fast food. But does he love it enough to put a fast-food executive in charge of the Labor Department?

On Friday, the New York Times reported that Trump is mulling Andrew Puzder to be his labor secretary. Puzder is the chief executive of CKE Restaurants, the parent company of Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s. The Times attributed its brief report to an anonymous official on Trump’s transition team. Puzder met with Trump in person last month after the election.

3. He sounds perfect for Trump's administration.

And a continuation of the "worst person I can find for the job" pattern of his incoming administration.

5. Yes, because in the future we are going to be selling burgers to each other.

Those will be the only jobs left.

10. Carls Jr

was the first fast food business to be automated in Tulsa. More are on the way. I would suggest anyone looking for job security in the future should learn to repair the machines.

6. Bringing the *McJobs* point of view to the Labor Dept.

Trump is hell bent on screwing up everything he can.
