Idea: To replace fast food workers with robots which are controlled by real people working remotely from home, and also to prepare fast food for delivery via pneumatic tubes in "ghost kitchens" in apartment complexes and dorms. This would give the workers more job flexibility and would allow the restaurants to stay open if there was a more deadly virus outbreak. Also: opinions on "gig jobs" and working from home; controlling robots that cook real food for real people as a "loot grind" task in a video game; remote-controlled robotic cats to catch the rats that eat the food dropped by the food-cooking robots Brandon Ponke (instagram.com/bponke twitter.com/BPonke) Peggy Beattie (instagram.com/peggy4859 Podcast: Go Ahead, Cancel Me https://www.buzzsprout.com/1714682) Tom Walma (https://creativitywasted.com twitter.com/thomaswalma)
