This comment is not the slam dunk you think it is… Lemmy isn’t owned by corp interests, it’s not algorithm driven and it isn’t 92% bots from fascists, oligarchs and foreign influence agencies. You can as much control as you want here. You can talk to actual people here.

I got fired from my job as a pediatric brain surgeon…

I tested positive for coke

The raise ask is valid, the photo is not. Douche

Just pick up that trash and YOU’LL BE SHOT IN THE FACE BY A MASKED GROUP OF PARDONED JAN 6 TRAITORS IN ALL DIFFERENT HOMEMADE ARMY MAN COSTUMES, CHARGED WITH “ULTRA LEFT WING” TERRORISM AND DEPORTED, AS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN, WITHOUT A TRIAL, FOR WOKE MARXIST CANCEL CULTURE AND DOUBLE TRANS!!!

The movie is called “the pod generation”. Makes sure you read those terms of service…

Lazy girls… They should read their own books?

STOP to Quit

GO to Hit

Cars are full of sensors as well

The trouble is that of the few remaining mom and pop places, they are typically run by folks that started working early and had limited education. They are fodder for manipulation. POS systems get in or cheap/free at times, charge for the service and “surface insights”.

“You could be charging most for X”

“this is your best seller on weekday afternoons”

And these decent folks, like many of us, can have some imposter syndrome. We don’t want to look like rubes so we press the button to test higher prices on X.

Man, you all really want Cher to die, huh? Messed up…

You fool, I can now access your hub!!!

Not having diarrhea that hospitalizes you is a Marxism!

We all merely exist in the shadow of your cultured point of view.

No deal!

What are you talking about never calling it out? As if that is our problem… And “it’s on the democratic party” - again what are you talking about? What do your extremely broad statements mean to you? Schumer/Jefferies style governing are definitely not the answer, but “it’s all on…” Is a ridiculously odd, shallow take

The weirdest thing here is them calling the Costco cashier a “line cook”

A note, they demand their own SUBJECTIVE PERCEPTION of productivity, not objectively measured productivity itself.

Damn FAM!!! Get 'em doggie!

See my other response, it’s very much not random. Every processed product in the modern world is hyper optimized for profit. At the least , they know the average weight of shell with nut and without in grams or something smaller. Also likely a hopper with high speed cameras to count yield per bag to maintain exact profit margins. There could be, and likely is, a scale at the end of line that weighs and would five a fairly faithful estimate of empty percentage per bag. And all that is automated.

Problem is that infrastructure likely exists more or less and they have just turned up the acceptable percentage of empties probably. Like anything else, VC pushes those lines quarter after quarter until people might revolt (or in another time, an administration regulates an acceptable amount of “defective” product).

You are seriously underestimating the industrial factory technology at scale to do quality control when processing food. If they wanted, they could literally remove individual ants from the flow of 5 ton sacks of coffee beans, in a sustainable way. They literally have lasers and sensors to find undesirable product and knock it out of high speed belt flows of fruits and vegetables with micro targeted jets of air and things like that.

You’re mistake is is that you are thinking of how YOU would sort these yourself, that’s part of our problem as humans, we have a bit of a narcissistic bias. Similar to trump people that think, " he’s doing well enough… I’d do a but better probably, but he’s doing okay" they are comparing to themselves as baseline, when they aren’t even near qualified either.
