This is what a $15 minimum wage gets you. Robots who work for nothing.

BUT...BUT..BUT...what about those 10,000 refugees who were promised jobs at Starschmucks? Gee, I thought grownups weren’t supposed to make phony promises! Oh, wait! We’re dealing with progressives, silly me.

Minus the bluetooth connection to your mobile device didn’t this used to be called a ‘coffee vending machine’ 30 years ago?

Is Cafe X paying the robots $15/hour??? I bet the robots are smarter than an average Starbucks barista. They are more sanitary...

I’ve been predicting this for 3 years: espresso machines are already so automated that all the barman has to do is press a couple of buttons. It was only a matter of time before they turned the machine around and added an credit card swiper to it and let the customer push the buttons. (The robot arm seems a bit much to me, but hey, what do i know about building self-serve espresso bars?)

I'm not sure robots can provide the same service as a trained (and naturally gifted) professional.
