I used to work in a warehouse as a “picker”. I’d drive around on a little electric vehicle picking up boxes from shelving units in long isles, assembling them into neat little cubes (yay for spatial training!) and delivering them to waiting semi’s. We used to compete on who could be the fastest, or just have yogurt fights. I was likely in the best shape of my life; who wants yogurt all over them? And I made some money to put me through university….and worked with some great people, some great memories.

And now, it appears we wouldn’t have as much fun:

Autonomous Robots Invade Retail Warehouses

but wow, how awesome is that? Another notch in Skynet’s belt.
