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.

It has been decades since I was a server,
bartender or busboy, and I still have dreams about doing this kind of sidework.
Untipped wage
Especially at sub-minimum wage.
I made it one day sorting silverware
Back in 1999 at the Lakeview pavilion I hated sorting silverware so much I quit after one day...how has it taken so long to perfect this device?
Oh, please ...
What's next, ceasing the practice pouring Hunt's ketchup into Heinz bottles? Or simply adding a $4.00 fee for silverware wrapping?
