I don’t like to interact with people, but I also don’t like to work for free for the owner of the chain, so I take one for the comrades and interact with the cashier.
Grocery stores used to have you bring in a list of what you needed and the grocer picked it all out for you from behind the counter and packed it up. If you walk through a store and put your own groceries in a cart, you’re already doing free work for the owner of the store.
I wouldn’t change that, and I wouldn’t change self checkout. I prefer both. It’s not work if I’d rather do it.
(The first paragraph is a true story, but also a joke. Doing “work” is all relative.)

If you work for free, you’re bound to make mistakes. Sometimes a pound of fish might get rung up as a pound of oranges.
I bought a potato yesterday that should have cost 79p but it only rang me up for 30p as the scale was broken. I’m a proper little criminal me.
Nothing tastes better than ever so slightly erroneously discounted potatoes.

I don’t see a problem with that
