Please consider that saving someone's job is worth the 2 minutes more that you spend waiting in line at the cashier.
I have never saved time at a self checkout unless I had 1 item. I am absolutely not interested in looking up the code for a poblano fucking pepper using their shitty menu.
Same, I've never even thought to try it at the grocery store. I always have produce and alcohol and I'm not about to try to fuck with all that on self-service. Cashiers can do it faster. I sometimes use it at big box stores if I only have a couple things but for the most part I wait until I'm in dire need before I go out to the store so I usually end up getting a bunch of stuff at once.
The cashier job is obsolete. By using self checkout I give them the opportunity to work somewhere fulfilling
Just a pick a new job from the magical job tree, where jobs are free and plentiful and ripe for the taking
Almost every time I've been given the choice, the cashiers were faster. People using the self-checkouts are slow as fuck.
It only is faster if few people with few items use it. It is not feasible to be used by every customer with a shopping cart.
Please consider that people suck.
