#6 The robot got the order backwards!

the manager stated, Youre not a doctor, you dont need to be making $30 an hour.Sounds like your manager needs to be replaced. If a waiter/waitress is getting $30/hour in tips, that means their service is pretty darned good. That brings the customers back, over and over, and wins new ones.

The true measure is GROSS MARGIN per worker. The gross margins in the restaurant business are notably higher (as a percent of sales revenue) than in grocery or gasoline.Bingo. What's a half million in sales if the profit is only 10K?

Bwahahahahahaha! Push for $18 dollars an hour. The ones who haven’t done the math just might back it, and the taxpayer would get a break!

I agree. She’s easy on the eyes and does commercials well, too.

Yeah, the maintenance guy will have to spread all those germs by himself... That's maintenance bot and only if it's programmed too! Pretty soon these liberals will succeed in having almost all humans removed from every possible job, already my bank has removed almost all the tellers and placed advanced ATM's in the lobby and truthfully I would rather use a self checkout in the grocery store than put up with the incompetent and overly gabby humans at the checkout.

To: Mastador1
Never mind the self-checkout.
The tyranny of machines isn't for me. If I want to put the heavy thing in the cart instead of put it on the lower bagging area and then pick it up later and put it in the cart, well that works better for me. I have only ever used one of those infernal devices without it malfunctioning--all other encounters required human intervention anyway. I would much rather deal with a human.
I don't use ATMs either.

At least the robot taking my order will at last speak and undrstand English! That will be worth the price of admission.

This summer, while I was in PA, I went to a Sheetz and they have that type of ordering system, online screen.

True enough, but it does suggest that the technology behind these automated food prep and delivery systems has been around for a while and has become reliable enough.

The ordering automation was first spotted by me at a corporate fast food store in Fullerton, CA around 20 years ago.

So that when they screw up the order they can blame it on the customer entering it wrong?

To: thomasryan
It is much better to enact a minimum-wage law even if it deprives these unfortunates of work
better that the state should support the inefficient wholly and prevent the multiplication of the breed than subsidize incompetence and unthrift, enabling them to bring forth more of their kind.

Sounds like you’ll be OK then. The chains are going to ALL go automatic within the next two years (probably sooner) and a lot of these whiners are going to be unemployed.
