That sounds like a great way to drive people away. An ordering system more annoying than a pushy salesperson? I'm going across the street instead, unless literally every option around does the same thing. And if Wawa in my area is any indication, there will be better options.

How much better is a Wawa than a Sheetz? When I lived in Virginia(9 years ago?) I would visit one near my work and I could order food on a screen and a few minutes later an invisible person would push it through the service window.

Never been to a Sheetz, I'm too far north, I suppose. There's no service window at Wawa, though. They prepare everything in plain sight behind a counter, which I'd consider a plus. And their mac n cheese sides are as addictive as cocaine.
For a third party comparison:
