Most of the fast food slop joint franchises in CA are owned by wealthy foreign nationals and Muslims, so it’s a win win for them.

Miso hungry.
No they will say it's because Trump hates immigrants who do these jobs.
Kali will now institute a “Robot Tax”
The robots are coming!
The robots are coming!
They are already talking about taxing robots to make up for the lost Social Security taxes paid by employees.
Minimum wage proponents should be careful with what they wish for, they might get it.
I bet the break even time between set cost and equipment paid for is not too long when they can work 24/7. Wonder if the robot repair guy will be the new IT guy that use to be the copier guy back in the day.
Or NOT have a massive thin-skinned chip on it's shoulder. Most of us are ready... Machines over liberal elite democrat victim group members any day of the week... Conservatives are sick of paying to be treated like second class citizens.
Place your order by kiosk, machines make the food.
This is the future of fast food.
Human involvement will be minimized.
“....hire a new staff member that works for free?”....
Well, NO WAY “FREE”. First, you have to purchase the machine and my guess, considerably high priced since it must be programmable and versatile enough to make more than one kind of burger. Second, there is operation and maintenance which, typically would take a human to do. Replacement costs and other hidden costs tell me the machines will take some time to pay themselves off but when “free and clear” will provide high degree of uniformity in EVERY burger coming off that grill. Good for CalBurger moving forward with these machines and I anticipate we will see many more like these surfacing all across the nation as the price of “unskilled” labor escalates beyond its capability to provide.
Will it come with robo-zits?
That will not last long.
The Robots will unionize...................
I think the robo-flipper has the hots for the fry-cooker.
What about workmen’s comp, health care coverage (robots won’t buy health insurance so the could be subject to the tax) , Medicare tax, federal and state unemployment tax?
.gov needs the money! :-(
Does the BLM model come with a “spit tank”?....just askin’.
$15/hr in CA is a joke. You crack me up.
We give our order to a witless drone standing in front of a computer/register on the other side of a counter, they press the buttons for the food we want, and not always correctly, and then most times we swipe a card to pay.
Dump the cashier now...$avings right off the bat.
>>The left will cry foul and demand that robots be outlawed in restaurant
**************************************************
And after that fails, they will unionize the robots, charge them dues, bargain for them and be their “voice”.
