Local restaurant using robot waiter

The robot named pearl, is delivering food at a local restaurant.

[@toniaparker3543]

😂😂😂 I'm taking the day off. Pearl can cover my shift frfr!

[@Dem0nized]

Haha the real waiter still apparently has to hand you the food off the stupid thing. So u can't take a day off 🤣 you need to still be there.

[@superkd7030]

They are just getting people used to it. The waiter can go on permanent leave without pay pretty soon. 😂😂😂

[@Shiroi0moi]

Finally, no more dealing with rude waiters. Just a cute robot and no tipping

[@ToguroCrypto]

you don't tip for other restaurant workers, such as cooks? That doesn't sound right

[@kevinburrell3359]

That robot is going to learn how to cuss people out just wait!

[@rickwilliams8877]

@@ToguroCryptoThey get paid a higher hourly rate than wait staff categorically. Wait staff are only entitled to a little more then $2/hour and don’t get pay raises.

I like it, keep the Robot sever at the restauants

[@mztweety1374]

While true that it’s more and more like the jetsons or something… humans have had it with the service industry. Waitressing is one of the lowest paying, most dehumanizing jobs in the country. You’re treated with zero respect and in the not so old days sexually harassing waitstaff in front and back of house was pretty common. No support from bosses who value the bottom line over having happy staff..and HR? Please…I did two years as a waitress in Detroit. The owner was later shot during a robbery(I was long gone by then). It’s dystopian but so are smartphones, smartwatches, internet ,self driving cars. You want better service from humans? Pay them and treat them as if you do. If not, Pearl will be happy to take care of your dining needs…because she’s been programmed to.

[@kristiyanivanov7414]

Yeah, thing is with robots taking the roles of waitresses, servers, maybe even taxi drivers we humans can focus on more productive/mind challenging work, which is not easily done by robots, along with the problems you mentioned. I think it's necessary in order to keep the evolution going and our civilization developing.

[@jaimemunoz5920]

Robots do not have to be perfect they just have to be better than humans so for example a doctor robot would only need to kill less people than doctors by making mistakes for it to be better. Same goes with every other robot. And I do question if a birthday candle can even catch a wig on fire.

I love these with labour shortages why not! These robots can work 7 days with just charging needed. No need to put up with rude entitled customers or hotel guests.

[@TheDorianTube]

Awesome, but I question the utility of it if the waiter has to stand next to the table lol. Just bring the food yourself instead of staying there hand in hand.

[@superkd7030]

The robot is on a testing phase. They will take the waiter away, for sure.

[@nspencer257]

We went to a restaurant (although not a nice sit down) and we had to get the food off ourselves, no one came and helped

[@redtruck3020]

The staff think twice before being rude in an entry-level job you can be replaced

Remember, Pearl the Robot can be programmed to tell the customer to F-off as well if they don't like the service-----------------------and still expect a "TIP".

[@theeverythingelectronicsst3897]

Bellabot is 100 times better than Pearl You don’t need the server with Bellabot, they can be doing other things that make customers happy.. With Bellabot, you take the food off the tray, and if you take the wrong food Bellabot warns you, and then can warn the kitchen etc.. Bellabot has a face, you can pet it, kids love Bellabot, it’s multi-lingual , it can sing Happy Birthday, more than one Bellabot can be mapped in a restaurant and work together, I could keep going lol😂

[@doords]

Probably because of discrimination that you dont see Bella in the news.

[@MeMe-fg5sr]

So the waiter has to stand around while that thing takes all day to get there? Or the customer has to grab their own food? No thanks.

It's a busser not a waitor. Also it will take more than a few "days off" when it breaks.

At least she won’t harass you for tips.

[@larrybruce4856]

Who says ??? Pearl delivered your food to the table, yet a waiter/waitress is still standing there waiting for Pearls to arrive and then places your food on the table. So what is the waitress doing while standing there, telling you the stock market trades, talking politics, forecasting the weather, reading palms, knitting a sweater ??? Seems like a waste of time.

And yet you still need a human being to take the food off of the robot and hand it to the people also, the robot is a little bit slower than your average waiter so overall, it’s probably not gonna save one bit of labor at all just a gimmick

Local restaurant using robot waiter is only to deal with them people who done something in their life to deal with them criminal record people so they less likes to NEVER get a job again ( Means $0 an Hour in return can't live in a area which they loved as a KID now going to be destroy Retail. Hospitality and catering. Construction _ list get smaller meaning the Robot waiter is to deal with people who don't want a job - to deal with catering and return less jobs means Hospitality and Construction soon to be DOA as their places get replace is made to deal with criminal so they never getting a job anywhere unless 500 miles away or Being an NO NO DEALER again as they can't do their Legal job without the criminal record with bots saying WE locked you down so we not willing to help so they need to be in JAIL as it the only home they can get a job as they only able to work there as their jobs basically killed

[@noelaguirre1141]

Now people who used to work as servers can go to school and learn code AKA programming, some education never hurts . The only problem here those lazy bums are waiters and waitresses because they either suck at learning or hate school.

[@DerUberGaijan]

Programming is experiencing the same problem lawyers have been experiencing, where years of everyone giving the advice "become a lawyer/doctor/programmer" has led to an oversaturation of these markets. Entry-level job hunting for these professions is a hell beyond imagining right now.
