Sorflakne:
That was my first thought. Could they afford to take on May even at minimum wage?
Gnabberwocky:
Previous comics have stated that they're making just enough to cover the workspace's rent, but not enough for utilities or the apartment rent. I think hiring an employee for menial tasks would sink them for good.
Gyrre:

Seems like that was the whole idea behind the idea of the Panopticon.

FaceBook replaced DARPA's scrapped LifeLog project.

If I remember correctly, Sam is bringing in the lion's share of the money that's coming into the business.
I'm going to be frank. I never thought that Faye and Bubbles would really succeed with the shop. It just seemed too niche for the time. Lets just say that a chassis gets damaged, unless its (relatively) ridiculously old or the warranty is incredibly short (unlikely given their cost), it just seems more likely that a store that sold chassis would have their own on-site repair team (as proven when Roko took May in to get assessed). So, why go to Union Robotics when you can just go to the shop you got the chassis from and ask them to fix it. Or possibly replace it. There's just no real market for a repair shop that specialises in after market repair. Its like creating a workshop to restore classic cars, but the only cars available are all last year's registrations.
Unless some miracle, or more appropriately, some deus ex machina happens, I just can't see Faye and Bubbles making a living from the business.
Mordhaus:
I always figured May was working as a condition of her parole. One of the reasons I figured she was working at a simple gas station, since other more desirable jobs see her as a felon.
