Workers at the fast-food restaurant are also engaging in rational behaviour attempting to achieve maximum fulfillment of their goals.  Every worker is considered the opportunity cost of being in the restaurant rather than participating in the activity that is perceived as the next best alternative (say, cruising around in their cars).

The diligence observed is a function of their desire to maintain employment and the marginal benefit they receive from another day’s pay.  Most among them quit their jobs after high school graduation because they receive more highly valued offers for the use of their time.
