They don’t need health insurance, won’t sue you for work accidents, don’t take breaks, no maternity leave, won’t complain, or picket as they try to shut you down for not paying them a living wage.

  1. So what do we do with the millions and millions of low dollar worker illegals we’ve been importing for several decades now?

  2. Looks like it only does plates of a certain size. What about bowls, cups, flatware, glasses?

    I know of a soon to be unemployed former bartender. I understand bartenders know how to wash glasses. This particular one might need a little retraining, because she doesn’t seem to know much. But if anyone can organize dish robots, my money is on her.

  3. I guess the patron has to dump all of the solid stuff such as bones off of the plate. I guess the bus boy person can do that in a higher class place.

    Somebody is also going to have to keep the screens clean and the soap dispenser filled.

  4. …you don’t have to pay robots, but you DO have to pay guys to work ON robots.

    And that ain’t cheap. I work on robots, and it pays very well.

    I USED to wash dishes, by hand, as my first job at 14.

    But I didn’t do that for my entire LIFE.
