$3000 a month isn't a lot if it can replace half a dozen staff :(

Yes DR
they [Miso robotics] are now making many more Robot Arm Cookers

It is saving big cash
on the Cooking former staff workers.


Well Done Paris to try it
out in France Since July 2021

[The new pizzeria Pazzi is staffed entirely

Good, its replacing vacant jobs.
When in america every single fast food joint has a sign outside saying "NOW HIRING"

How many jobs is it replacing for $3k a month? I'm not sure it's entirely worth it?

Up to 8 Shift Workers per day

It has saved many of those USA restaurants
alot of money.
