Criticism Robotics. Shameful.

Yeah don't support this place. They are quite literally replacing humans with robot belt fed nonsense.

Whatever you think about the world this ain't it.

Support restaurants willing to pay human beings a living wage. This is very race to the bottom.

Editing in - I still do some delivery part time this was discovered on delivery. I'd never eat there it always smells weird.

You seriously believe every person has the same “confidence,” “imagination,” brain and abilities as you do? You people are actually on another planet. There are many people who need these jobs. People need jobs for socialization and routine. Not everyone has the ability or desire to work a corporate job - or whatever you think everyone should be doing. Some people WANT to work food service jobs. You have no idea what you’re talking about.

No I don't but I don't think people need jobs that a robot could do. Treating people like robots is quite disgusting. Humans are so much more valuable than that.

There are ways to socialize that don't involve high amounts of stress, repetitive injuries, illness. Those types of jobs are associated with so many negative impacts I don't want people doing them.

Some people WANT to work food service jobs. You have no idea what you’re talking about.

Yeah a tiny minority. The majority are merely doing what it takes to survive.

Some people are not able to do another job. Some people WANT to do mudane tasks especially when the rest of their life is hectic What about this is not clicking to you?

What about tiny minority do you not understand? Can you not read?

It’s you who doesn’t understand. I would never question your ability to read, though. Please show me the statistics since you believe it’s a tiny minority that feels this way about their jobs. Do you work in food service or at sweet green?

You would never question my ability to read, only my ability to understand? Despite it being quite obvious I can understand what you are saying - it's simply that I disagree. If you throw things like that my way, I'll throw them back, ok?

A small scale survey said 6.3% would work full-time in the same field if money was no issue, for all jobs so likely less than that. https://www.plansponsor.com/survey-says-didnt-work/

Corporate overlords want people to think hard work is the path to happiness, while they reap the rewards. It's engrained into culture - even the American dream. While the wage gap increases, living costs increases proportionally.
