Tkseah Turbocharged October 22, 2018 Share October 22, 2018 I thought tech was supposed to make things easier and faster not more complicated and slow use tech and robotics is more to replace the human.. not necessarily will be faster.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beregond Supersonic October 22, 2018 Share October 22, 2018 (edited) use tech and robotics is more to replace the human.. not necessarily will be faster.. faster or slow is 1 issue. but every thing also robot. buy veg use robot, buy drinks robot. buy food from foot court also want use robot. make us feel like robot like that , i dun kown how to say lol Edited October 22, 2018 by Beregond Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lala81 Hypersonic October 22, 2018 Share October 22, 2018 This thread is informative. For old school guy like myself, who hasn't been keeping updated about current affairs, it's very useful to learn that there are such business going on now. Whether it lasts or not, is another matter. But it's sure innovative. yeah it's good to keep abreast of what is happening. So u don't appear suaku I still do my grocery shopping the old school way, unless it's rice, PET bottles then I maybe interested in online grocery discount. Don't say about Honestbee Megastore .... NTUC self check out counter, I already have some problem doing it myself and needs the staff assistance.... NTUC checkout counter, i find the counters too small, bigger shelf/packing area would be very helpful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galantspeedz Turbocharged October 22, 2018 Share October 22, 2018 from company point of view, i don't have to plan shift duty, various religion holidays, last min MCs and urgent leave, people suddenly quitting, employees throwing temper or complaining to MOM, less human error, etc the only thing missing will be a human touch 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icedbs Turbocharged October 22, 2018 Share October 22, 2018 Looking at the videos alone, I find the process became longer and more complicated. Surely have to wait for some people to figure out where to scan, how to use, etc. Then have to wait for robot to pack...... Can't they just use the normal cashier style, ...just pay, pack and go? Innovation should cut down processes, not adding into them. Innovation should save time, not add more time. Seems like have to wait to push trolley into machine, then wait for robot to pack before can collect. Is there an express checkout? If I just buy a packet of prawn crackers, I don't need a trolley to push into the machine and wait for robot to pack 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bro..we can talk about lifestyle only if the labour law here change the max working hours per week from 44 to 35 like in Europe. Otherwise, rushing is part of the rat race here. Anyway, even if I got time, I wouldn't want to chill at Boot Leat Terrace. It is all old warehouses there. Edited October 22, 2018 by Icedbs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vratenza Supersonic October 22, 2018 Share October 22, 2018 (edited) From what I know about how US/Europe working style.....they may be spending that time in the the office but they have own internal speed/load limit on how fast they process stuff in the inbox/in tray. The working hours looks nice on paper but efficiency is in the gutter. no europe country work 35 hour liao, mostly above 40 hour. many office here work 5 day week from 9-5 or 9-6 also close to 40 hour, some office lesser than 40 hour.

Kopites Supersonic October 22, 2018 Share October 22, 2018 it's not about kankor..... it's about moving with tech.. already a norm in china... and the good thing is no cash involved... so less dispute, less fake currency and less robbery.... Agreed and disagreed. Safe for not carrying cash. But this latest honest bee their minimum top up into their app is $10. I need to get at least 2 packs of salted egg potato chip to come anywhere near $10. Don't say about Honestbee Megastore .... NTUC self check out counter, I already have some problem doing it myself and needs the staff assistance.... No need..no need...you smartest than me. it took me one month of "nagging from wifey" to master the ntuc self check out. Always choose cash mode as payment. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
