I once asked a cashier in Germany if she thought self-checkouts would take away her job. She said she liked them because there’s enough to do anyway and they take away the boring task of cashier-ing.
I like them because it makes my bagging more efficient. At the lanes, if I’m getting a decent amount of groceries, I usually end up bagging for a while after I’ve paid and feel like a dick because I’m in the way of the people getting rung up behind me.
At self checkouts, I take it out of the cart, scan, then stick it right in the bag. Even better if they don’t have the stupid weighing thing that assumes I’m trying to steal shit if they don’t micromanage every item going into my bag.
Also, in this case, management is telling workers to not make fun of people who don’t want to use self checkouts.
Management can fuck right the hell off. Self checkout is taking jobs away from people and getting us to work for free.
Do you feel the same about self serve gas?
