the ramen place in the foodcourt at one of the malls near me has an tablet that you can tap your order into so that when there's a long line you only have to pay when you get to the counter, it owns ramen is pretty tasty too

That's the future of the American labor market (not making that up btw, get some Organic Locally Sourced Eco Sustainable Tilapia at Whole Foods that was grown on a prison fish farm if u don't believe me)

MORE CURLY FRIES posted:plus therely be fees which the state can skim from and use to fund other things because prisons are a business here's my idea decriminalise marijuana, start licensing growers and distributors, either quietly keep tabs on consumers or require the distributors to do the same. one way or another, build an extensive list of known people then recriminalise marijuana and immediately go around knocking on each of those doors with a sniffer dog, because no way more than 40% of them actually quit instantly double the prison population

in canada they are slowly phasing out home delivery in favour of putting in those big community mailboxes bitch all you want about usps but if they ever start losing money have fun fighting them when they put one of those communal mailboxes on your front lawn and you come home to piles of junk mail all around it (luckily for me i'm next to an apartment building so they'll probably put the mailbox beside that but other people in older, densely packed neighbourhoods are pretty hosed)

we'll still get parcels delivered to our door though because they sure as poo poo can't risk losing business to ups and fedex

computer parts posted:that's because they've been constrained anytime they branch out we sorta did the opposite in canada, companies can email bills securely via this thing called epost run by canada post lots of companies don't use it and since it costs money a lot of the companies that do are trying to get their customers to switch to logging into company site directly for bills instead

although the best argument against the usps is if you've ever lived in a building without package delivery and have to go to a branch to pick poo poo up, an hour minimum each time
