Engineering entrepreneur could end bane of restaurant workers: Rolling silverware into napkins

Patent design of device to fold utensils into napkins

From Foley's patent application. He is working on a more user-friendly design.

Northeastern Global News introduces us to Mike Foley, who is in the process of perfecting a device that, when fed silverware in one tray, and napkins in another, folds the former into the latter. He got the idea talking to his brother, who works in the restaurant business and who told him one of the things waitstaff hate the most is the monotony of silverware/napkin folding.

bartender or busboy, and I still have dreams about doing this kind of sidework.

Especially at sub-minimum wage.
