I've been in retail since I was 16 (19 now). As bad as most of the customers are, it's taught me a lot of life skills like picking my battles and how to spend my paycheck. But I see your point. Teenagers shouldn't have to deal with people treating them like shit. Nobody should, really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody should, really. i was really thinking of people coming in and robbing the place and killing the innocent cashier but y0u made a good point. i was on my own and working fast food when i was 18 and people would come in and treat my co-workers and myself like complete crap. but i never stooped to spitting in their food ( although my one boss made us pick up the chicken we'd drop onto the greasy, filthy floor then throw it in the french fry vat to "sterilize" it ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you can quit or deal with it. I was thinking more in bad areas where it gets robbed. Like certain ATMs you get robbed. So they shut them. Staffless shops do look open to stealing but what if theres one security guard. They still save money. Or they take the hit on a few packs of chips. Plus with all the cctv cameras and fingerprinting, facial recog ststems you might not get far be the Minority Report Team find you holding your diet soda and chips. 20 years for soda.

Yeah I think it said open 24 hours. I remember there was a video VHS. ATM on my road. It never really took off. But yeah what kind of work will there be left. I used to wash dishes. There was a machine but it was broken. Now though machines must kick ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as far as big data, I heard about a gadget that a guy can were during sex and it gathers data on his performance which is posted on a website for men to compare results. And all this is even kept and utilized by big data. Just to me, it really feels like we took a wrong turn somewhere along the way!

Wasn't I ranting about that here? Or was that in someone else's thread. I see all restaurants being either convenience stores or fast casual. Reducing the actual quality but increasing the illusion. Whem you order a taco by phone you know it won't be the best quality but it probably will be less than a dollar. 1 minute ago, AxlsFavoriteRose said: OMG that is so twisted!

That's true, i always feel raped in restaurants. That's why I go. And since going low carb theres no options. All I need is a griddle and some meat. I could roll homeless no trouble. I was drinking wine in the 7-11 the other day, eating sushi. Do I really need an apartment? I could live in hostels and eat at 7-11. Steal wi-fi from Starbucks. There's even kiosks that cook rib eyes. That will be a vending machine soon. You could watch the steak being grilled in the machine.

Well you stand next to the window and log in without buying coffee. But that's how I see it going, everything getting cheaper because of alien technology. So you can now rent almost coffin sized places to sleep in the city, like a draw you pull out. This is how they will make more money without actually providing as much as before. The slogan should be Make America Accept Less. Like you see homeless people with iphones. Who's to say they aren't happy?

Like temperature controlled water tanks with oxygen. Like minority report, the precogs sleep in water and have wires attached to their brains. Once they work out how to allow our braina to live without a body that dies it's all over. That's the real game changer. Our brains lost in hyperspace for eternity. Playing pacman forever.
