It could take a century

Maybe we should chip in and buy a second robot.

Hear me out: three robots.

With more than one, a union can be formed. So, no.

The union would be extremely powerful with just one robot though. There would be no competition or different opinions. If the single robot strikes to get better working conditions or better pay, the entire workforce is on strike.

yes yes, but the robot cannot strike, you see, because one robot must make the strike motion, another robot must second the strike motion, and then all the robots must vote. if there is no robot to second the strike motion, then no robots may vote, meaning the strike cannot pass.

I would like to add to this conversation, "I've talked it over with myself and I've decided I'm going on strike," is an extremely powerful thing to say.

...I didn't promise my addition would be valuable.

Also that roebuck could probably lift three tons.
