Official store information confirms that helpers can be hired and equipment can be upgraded and automated. The current sources name Waiter, Busser, Porter, Pizza Chef, and Fry Cook as roles worth covering in future guides.
What changed in v1.007
Build 24887476 says staff now communicate why they are stuck or cannot complete a task. It also records pathfinding improvements for Waiters and Bussers, workflow fixes involving Pizza Chefs, Porters, and Waiters, a fix for permanently frozen staff, and a fix for a Waiter repeatedly picking up and putting down a tray without delivering it.
Confirmed for v1.007: these are patch-note changes, not a promise that every staff issue is gone.
Current guide
