I get more dopamine shots from solving interesting problems at work than watching mind-numbing cookie-cutter fiction or games with 30 second ads and a lot of grind.

Are you 80 years old, or did you not spend most of the past 3 years stuck at home ordering Uber Eats because of COVID?
You can specify which toy you want and customize your burger. I order a double cheeseburger on UE but make it a triple burger with triple cheese and add bacon, remove lettuce, and add extra tomato.

Nobody actually orders food from a real person at a fast food restaurant, I don't even stand in line to use their panels... I just sit comfortably outside, order uber eats with the pickup option instead of delivery, and when the order is done I enter the building and grab it.
Where exactly do these people live, where they want to artificially create McJobs to keep people employed in repetitive tasks, or putting up with Karens, feeling miserable?
Cheaper food means more disposable income for people to pursue useful arts and crafts and science jobs.
