ran into my first robot restaurant worker

[trevorjohnson83]

saw my first work robot tonight. It was a table? like a table with wheels and the guy put drinks on it and it delivered the drinks to the patrons then returned back to the front of the house and parked itself. It was quiet amazing.

Perhaps it was simply a handy capable employee.

When I was about 5 years old in the 50s Chicago, my dad took me to a hamburger place downtown. It was a U shaped lunch counter and it had no wait staff. We sat at the counter and a HO scale train came from behind the wall and stopped in front of us with a ticket book on it. My dad filled it out and it returned. A few minutes later the train came back with our burgers on it. I've never forgotten it. Very impressive for a 5 year old.

no it was like a cheap plastic stool with wheels and it navigated on its own.

I'm sorry a CART is what it looked like not a table or a stool, it was this three foot tall round cart that delivered drinks. I couldn't think of that word cart for the life of me.

/----/ They had the same in Huntington, NY, on Long Island. The Hamburger Choo-Choo. It closed in the late 80s, I believe. The fans have their own Facebook page.

I remember my first encounter ... now I'm banned from the restaurant ... these robot won't take a good ass-kicking ... as soon as driverless cars start showing up here, I'll chain a railroad tie to my bumper and go a-huntin' ... can't garnish SS benefits HAW HAW HAW HAW HAW HAW HAW HAW ...

I'm not anti-technology, I'm more pro-destruction ... and robots make easy targets ...

While not common, this is one from a Mexican restaraunt that we like (for the food).

The kitchen can load it up, sends it to the table, and the server serves. More efficent for the establishment, food stays hot, and less waste from servers dropping orders.

I was at the airport in Dublin ordered lunch on my p[hone. Thats took 20 minutes to figure out. Then this robot sneaks up bejind me singing a stupid song in a childs voice Oh happy happy your food is hear. If I was in America I would have shot the dam thing. I want a waitress with a tight skirt or tights taking my order.

I've seen "door dash" food robots delivering down the streets. Thru stoplights.

I would not want my food passing by "God knows who" up ahead on the tracks looking thru it or touching it or stealing it. Won't work today. You've seen what "they" do at fast food joints.//

/——/ Get a rubber stamp with an image of a small robot and stamp your car door every time you take one out.
