Robot gets fired from supermarket job
Meet Fabio, a robot who was placed as a shopping assistant in
the Scottish supermarket Margiotta. He was supposed to help
customers find their items, as well as give price price
information, and do other helpful things that supermarket employees
do.
However, it turned out that he wasn't great at his job,
according to reports. Not only could Fabio not adequately give
customers the information they asked for, his programmed
personality quirks ended up creeping people out.
He would apparently yell out "hello, gorgeous!" to customers in
greeting, and give unwanted high fives and even ... hugs.
Boundaries, Fabio — heard of 'em?!
So unfortunately, when customers started actively avoiding
Fabio, his Margiotta employers had to let the little guy go.
