    Flippy and Chippy

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencet...e047a5d6ef8916

    Rise of the restaurant robots? Chipotle and White Castle are spending over $500,000 a month on automation to combat labor shortages and rising food costs - but it is still cheaper than paying human workers
    • Fast-food chains are employing robots that flip burgers, brew espressos and greet customers
    • The move to automation is due to labor shortages and rising food costs
    • White Castle uses a burger-flipping, fry-making robot at 100 of its locations, each costing $3,000 a month
    • Chipotle has a robot that makes tortilla chips at one site - this also costs $3,000 a month
    • The cost of these robots is cheaper than paying a human worker
    Luckily they won't be good at math so UK workers will be safe!
    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.
