Today is your day Boomer! Want some fast food Boomers? Robbie the Robot may be in the kitchen prepping your food in the near future! Yup, experts are predicting as many as 82% of all jobs in restaurants could be automated in the next few years....that's a whole lot of machines doing the work of humans. Here are a few examples: "Domino's is running trials with a pizza-making machine at one of its locations in Berlin. White Castle has implemented giant mechanical arms to flip burgers (nicknamed Flippy) and cook french fries (Chippy) at locations across the U.S. At a pilot restaurant in Fort Worth, Texas, it's nearly all robots serving McDonald's customers." (CTV News) Assembly-line food production is apparently perfect for robots. So, does this mean we will get our fast food even faster and will it be cheaper? Afterall, fewer wages will be paid out in places like Dominos. Boomers, it's a new world out there....are you ready to adjust, again?! Cheers.
