Re: Automation I've worked with one.
It was much slower than humans and jammed/broke/stopped for no reason/just didn't send the stuff approx 3 times an hour, more if busy (natch).
ONLY saving grace is that it was able to pack a lot more stock into the (fairly small) dispensary than human-accessable shelves ever could.
"I'm sorry, we haven't got any Yasmin in stock."
"Yes you have."
"Uh?"
"There they are, I can see them." (points through glass front of robot)
"Oh yes. Sorry. *******susser-fracker-macker-....."
