Why fast food workers specifically? I suppose their jobs is worse than a desk job, or even a retail job, but there are arguably far worse jobs out there (eg. delivery workers, landscapers, or agricultural workers). The article's explanation of "most of the often overlooked workforce are the primary earners for their low-income households" isn't really convincing. Delivery drivers or agricultural workers are probably even easier to overlook than someone you have face to face interaction with, and I don't see any reason why primary earners would prefer fast food jobs over other jobs.
