I work for a supermarket that's recently rolled out AI chatbots to "help" customers find items in store instead of asking staff. (self.fuck_ai)

The idea being it reduces the number of staff needed to run the store because now we can restock shelves uninterrupted.

Of course, that's not what's happening. Instead of being asked where our canned mushrooms are, we're now being asked where aisle 31 is, and we're having to take extra time to find out what their actual question is.

Because there are only 14 aisles in the store.

Oh, and I actually like being asked where stuff is, because it breaks up the monotony of bringing out rollcomp, rotating, stocking, facing up, putting back rollcomp, repeat until lunch.

I own a toaster oven slash air fryer that makes cooking such a breeze. So so much so. I no longer own a microwave.

Oven has a reheat button that I set for 5, 10, 15 minutes. A little bit slower, but so much better

homemade pizza 12 minutes homemade burritos, 6 minutes homemade cookies, 8 minutes.

This includes prep time.
