Well, this should make McDonald's affordable again

It's too bad there wont be a sustainable paying customer base. The California exodus is real.

There goes that 20 an hour wage they were all jumping up and down about.

[AdamWest-qpyp]

Worlds first person to state “I’ll NEVER EAT AT THIS RESTAURANT”

[LitEmUpx]

How nice, taking more jobs from people.

[Salazarsbizzar]

Pretty simple solution. It's called boycott AI restaurants keep American jobs. I'll sick with my taco trucks thank you but your job stealing technology is wasted on me. Good bye

You cannot complain against business automating when you push for minimum wage increase. If you don't like, you can start your own business and try making profit while paying higher wages. Try it because it must be that easy.

How you like that 15.00 an hour minimum wage now?! 🤣

The reason why we don't have enough workers is not because we can't find workers but because bosses rather have 1 person do the job of 4 people.

This is just a godsend for the rich. As we all lose our jobs to automation, they can kick their feet up more than ever since micro-managing will become obsolete and they won't have to deal with us pesky humans when we have our little problems at the kiosk.

All these automated restaurants will be empty of staff and consumers with the current rate of the economy, though lol

Keep it up, super wealthy! We support you! No, literally, we actually support you since you keep using our tax dollars to fund your projects, dismantle institutions, and get a tighter squeeze on us as we make minor mistakes trying to survive what they've created for us.

Robots and AI are the future. You can stress out all you want, but you can’t change what is coming.

Brought to you by California's $20 an hour fast food wage

[BIGBOVISUALS]

I won't be going there. You're not scanning my face just to place an order.

[jamesharris]

Do all the workers who were somehow convinced to "fight for $15" feel duped yet?
Did you really think they were gonna pay you $15+ an hour to work fast food or as a cashier?
We, collectively as a society, are done.
Brace for impact folks its gonna be a rough landing.

3:10. CA - $20 MINIMUM wage for flipping burgers ?!?!

[snevissniffle]

Now is a good time to be born a robot.

[mrsentinel]

How about a tall class of soylent green to wash that meat free burger down with?

[rachelkristine]

Well, thats it beginning of the end for the American worker! 🤷‍♀️

[brad]

Wow that guy in the suit and glasses seems like such a great guy

[kisnhug]

I'm happy to see this.. no long nails with polish on men or women. ❤

[PoeLemic]

That is so cheap. Only $4000 a month for an entire line-cook operation. That should really take off in fast food. Lot of workers won't have jobs in the months / years ahead. It's only time.
