My hubby and I actually had a contract with McDonalds with our own team of people, installing those throughout Canada, a couple years ago. Very convenient, but will be replacing a great deal of cashiers.
Send me tha link to put in a mothafukkin application, sis.

For every job replaces a new job is made. There’s a video on YouTube that talked about laughable things today that were once jobs back in the day!

This is true to a certain extent, but there will always be a segment of people who depend on low skilled work, both young and old.

approach or surpass $15 nationwide, restaurant customers expecting to be greeted by a smiling face will instead be welcomed by a glowing LED screen.

says something when a company will spend tens or maybe hundreds of millions to develop and build an automated system than raising wages :heh:
but this is a non story they still gon have nikkas back there making burgers
cashier is usually only a 2 person jobs in almost every mcd ive been in
everyone knew automation was coming lol they just shocked its here now
gonna have to be a universal monthy stipend for all residents in the future or rich people just gon be getting robbed left and right

the 60's is more than a few decades ago

the one and only time in history

during a huge ass war

Huh? Who said anything about the 60s? Cause I know damn well I never said shyt about that era... I'm a "90s kid" and both my parents worked low wage jobs in the 80s, yet STILL managed to pay for undergrad in the process. Think about that.

and supporting a family on it? debatable

Except it's not "debatable". Historical data will tell you this is a fact. You think your grandparents were all engineers making middle class money or some shyt??

college, houses and overall cost of living were tremendously lower then as well

AND? You're just further proving my point...

working in factories was probably the leading economy driving job then.. and coal mines were still a thing in the 60's

Yeah and those jobs once paid a wage that matched the local cost of living. What's your point again? All the current jobs will go the same way too if automation is left unchecked.
why compare different times


I'm not "comparing" shyt; but in those "different times" folks were able to work low wage jobs and manage not to starve to death, and in fact do a lot more. Imagine that! Are you really one of them smart-dumb nikkas that doesn't understand inflation or do you just play one on the coli ??


technology was bare bones back then as well

The Cotton Gin would like to say hello......... "Bare bones" tech has been putting people out of jobs for decades....

I dont use any automated kiosks anywhere if I don’t have to. Since I’m payin my money then I want service...And if they have just kiosks open as registers, like they sometimes do st Walmart when I go, then if the shyt don’t ring up the first time it still gets bagged :manny:

If I’ma ring my shyt up and bag it then I might as well give myself a discount. It’s a sale every time I go thru that bytch :WeRich:
