i found this Ziosk Aurizon Z500 POS on the ground a while ago. who knows what's in there. it does boot but I don't have a charger and it's out of power. do you want it?
this is one of those things that sits on tables in Olive Garden and Chili's and scams children into buying tablet games that are automatically added to your bill. lmfao
i listed it on Mercari. make an offer, I have absolutely no idea what it's worth. there are other POS units on Mercari and eBay but no one has ever sold a Z500 as far as I can find. it's heavy (almost four pounds) so keep the shipping price in mind

Behind you is a family with a baby. The child is not fussing, yet the parents blast the room with Baby Shark on repeat a minimum of three times. The A/C is blasting, so your fingers are numb. The device that let's you pay at the table is broken. You are at the mercy of the server. Where is she? Is she dead?
In 2014 restaurants like Chili’s and Applebee’s begin using small tablets at each table called Ziosk. These devices not only have the menu, but one can play interactive games, conduct surveys, and pay your ticket. The games are a fun way to take you mind off of how long it take for you food and beverages to come. It is also a great way for management to get feedback from the customers.
Workers say they have a couple of issues with the tech designed to make their lives easier.
Look, I’m not going to mince words: If you’re not nice to your servers, you’re just proving that you have very small genitalia, and no one respects you, case closed.
Ziosk and Presto sit at the nexus of two major consumer trends: the idea that every product, service, piece of content, and interaction, whether encountered online or in real life, should be rated on a scale of one to five, and that these ratings in aggregate become an invaluable dataset, helping managers achieve growth and make money.
“It makes very literal the idea that the customer is always right, to the complete disregard of the worker,” Ifeoma Ajunwa, an assistant professor at Cornell's Industrial and Labor Relations School, told BuzzFeed News.
Technologies like Ziosk are attractive to the restaurant industry, which faces a rising minimum wage, because the tablets promise to make workers more efficient, and in turn, lower labor costs. But in interviews with BuzzFeed News, more than two dozen current and former servers described Ziosk as a source of financial and emotional anxiety, a vector of discrimination and harassment in the workplace, and an added layer to the economic and psychological precariousness that already defines restaurant work.
“When they introduced them, it seemed like a good deal for the customer. But as a server, it's just the worst thing ever,” said Sam Ellis, who worked as a server at a Chili’s in Texas. “That's all your job depends on, is those survey scores.”
And how many customers are flat out power freak terrorists? As a customer, I have observed them. The customer is not always right. The public is clueless, and far too often, something worse than that: malicious.

In data-hungry, tech-happy chain restaurants, customers are rating their servers using tabletop tablets, not realizing those ratings can put jobs at risk.
In data-hungry, tech-happy chain restaurants, customers are rating their servers using tabletop tablets, not realizing those ratings can put jobs at risk.
Ziosk tablets sit atop dining tables at more than 4,500 restaurants across the United States — including most Chili’s and Olive Gardens, and many TGI Friday’s and Red Robins. Competitor E La Carte’s PrestoPrime tablets are in more than 1,800 restaurants, including most Applebee’s. Tens of thousands of servers are being evaluated based on a tech-driven, data-oriented customer feedback system many say is both inaccurate and unfair. And few of the customers holding the reins are even aware their responses have any impact on how much servers earn.

The customer is not always right. The customer is frequently a whining dipshit who thinks eating at a restaurant because of its low prices should mean they’re treated like royalty. One good thing about New York is, a lot of store clerks and waiters/waitresses can be pretty rude to some customers, and good for them. They usually deserve it.
