    One worker briefly approached a reporter before noticing the robot nearby and deciding not to speak

    Hey guys! Here is our surveillance bot! He's going to make sure that even your break time is full of anxiety and disgust. Here at Amazon, shut up and fucking take it you whore! Give us a smile, kiddo, it's hotter that way.
