The A9000 Robots were robots owned by Mr. Burns made to be employees at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant.

After Mr. Burns got a large bill to pay for his employees health, he decided to fire every employee and hire his intelligent kangaroos instead. Waylon Smithers then informed him that they stole stationary supplies and ran away. Smithers then suggested the robots to Mr. Burns.

After the unveiling of the robots, Mr. Burns fired everyone except from Homer as they needed one human employee to sign for packages etc. Mr. Burns also replaced Smithers with a robot.

Homer disliked his job as he had no one to talk to and the robots wouldn't interact with him. After accidentally breaking a robot, Homer read the A9000 Repair and Maintenance Manual and found out he could make them interact with him. After several failed attempts at getting them to do this (resulting in the robots getting destroyed), he figured it out.
