“As with all things automated, the robot handles grunt work
like a champ. The downside was that it required the owner / bartender to take
on additional ‘mindwork’ duties. He was the robot maintenance guy. He said it
wasn’t much; three hours a week or so. I mentally compared three hours charging
batteries and cleaning wheels versus the hassle of hiring waitstaff that might
flake out, screw up, or not exist at any price. Sounded like a good balance but
it requires a secret ingredient. It depends on an owner / bartender clever
enough to manage robot software AND do all of the other jobs.”
