*Looks at OP's avatar* OP, are you sure your anger isn't just misplaced technofetishist lust? Please don't hit on service workers. If you want to romance the robot, you have to do it outside the store on its time off.

yeah the stock checking robots at the grocery store here: - all have little screens on them that display unique animated faces - each have individual names - make r2d2-like beeps and sounds at you - interact with each other when in proximity with another robot it's kinda hosed up and I feel like not a single one of those features is necessary for a machine that checks inventory

I worked at Big Y for maybe 6 months in the dairy/frozen food section after Stop and Shop had got a union, and was shown videos when hired about how unions are bad.

Here's the thing though, Stop and Shop is union and they are absolute poo poo-tier. Their deli is trash and I saw them selling a bag of Hint of Lime Tostitos for loving $5.99. For corn! The 7/11 was cheaper! I guess they need big margins to fund that stupid loving robot. Market Basket is non-union and even had all the workers stand up for their fired boss and got him reinstated as president. They're the best value by a mile and I have had friends who loved working there. Don't get me wrong, I have helped friends unionize a for-profit hospital because the staff-to-patient ratio was abysmal. But my takeaway is sometimes unions are loving bad. Stop and Shop is a perfect example, laziest staff that will actively run away from you if you try and ask them where anything is. I've got another anecdote but it involves a goon S&S employee so I'll skip that one lol.

The union that was available to me around 2010 was not a real union. It took dues and did nothing, it served the interests of the company. The fact that we had two 15 minute breaks in an 8 hour shift was what they said we were paying dues for. A union in name only.

I hate that loving robot too op. Also Stop n Shops meat department lately sucks so bad. I don’t know if the one at my store got new management or what but just absolute poo poo tier garbage. Been making a separate trip to Big Y for meat.

Big Y is better than Stop and Shop p much across the board. Especially with Stop and Shops stupid new look and the stupid robot Big Y sells a strombo and a soda for like 4 bucks which is one of the best deals around for a cheap lunch

When our local Stop & Shop had their robot for a year, they held a birthday party. I know this because my kid found out and made me go. It was a very sad party.

It's clearly the idea of upper management who hates both their customers and employees. What's even worse is when they don't install a self-checkout and proceed to cut front-end staff anyway. The local Safeway here in a semi-rural area regularly has lines to the middle of the store every morning because they only want to pay for 1 or 2 people to run the checkout lanes. I have a feeling it will get even worse once the private-equity scammers who created this situation re-IPO the Safeway/Albertsons chimera they built. I'm sure they would have closed this store already if they thought they could get away without raising a stink about creating a food desert. I was in LA a few months ago, and I saw at least two of these bizarre delivery robots some startup had clogging the sidewalks around Hollywood. They each had a little screen claiming they were "On Delivery," but they were just sitting there in the middle of the sidewalk, not going anywhere. All I could think about was if it was closer to the 4th of July and I was a meaner person, I could pry the lid open, jam some fireworks in there, and sprint.

There's a Martin's in my town and it has a Marty robot but I think they don't let it talk because I've never heard it say anything or make any noise, it just scoots around the store checking prices. Little kids seem to think it's cool, everybody else just kind of ignores it.

I miss new England and I miss stop & shop. Marty still got those crazy googly eyes? He used to scan for trash on the ground and then just sit there and beep. I don't even think he did prices. Miss that guy.

The robot doesn't really bother me but that thing that screams "THANK YOU FOR SHOPPING TIDE!" when you get within 15 feet of the aisle with laundry detergent is the goddamn worst. They started having that thing because a bunch of old people believed some dumb urban legend about people stealing Tide to barter for drugs like ten years ago. No points for guessing what group of people were being accused of this.
