    If you think I think a cashier is going to scam me because I didn’t talk to them then you completely misunderstood what I was talking about, just like I predicted.

      What “benefit” does “someone in charge of all the money” being able to “evaluate your mental and emotional state” give you? And how would you expect me to take such a line of reasoning other than you having a paranoia about someone scamming you?

        It puts them at ease so they can do their job accurately and efficiently. Maybe there’s a bag fee and I don’t have my reusable bags and they say don’t worry about it. Maybe they make sure to bag my groceries without putting a gallon of milk on top of a loaf of bread. Maybe it’s a restaurant I get food at periodically and they remember me being nice to them and they throw me a coupon or a free dessert. Maybe they were having a shitty day and just needed someone to look them in the eyes and see that they existed and making them feel better makes me feel better. Maybe they’re really Morgan Freeman God in disguise and they’re going to make me a deity for a day. I don’t know man, it’s just fucking nice. I don’t need another reason.

        Do you really ignore blue collar workers who are doing a job for you and just refuse to speak to them for no reason?
