Reply to comment by crua9 in A McDonald’s location has opened in White Settlement, TX, that is almost entirely automated. Since it opened in December 2022, public opinion is mixed. Many are excited but many others are concerned about the impact this could have on millions of low-wage service workers. by Callitaloss

It's like charlie's dad in willy wonka getting replaced by a robot and then getting a job repairing the robot. After the robot is repaired there isn't much more to do.

I was thinking of that exact thing. I can't remember if it showed him having other workers around him when he was working before the robots, but I'm sure it showed just him fixing things or maybe a much smaller team.

Anyone who says robots will make more jobs is saying screw all the other people.
