They are running lean enough many places that you actually wait in line to check yourself out. I have no problem checking myself out. Waiting in line to use a machine because they don’t have enough of them on the other hand… Literally some places run like one minder for 12 machines but they will have another 12 machines disabled because they don’t want to come off another minder.
No, you are wrong. Places like Walmart will only have self checkout open, forcing you to ring up your own cart of items while their employees stare blankly at you … either that or you just make eye contact with them and walk away from the cart and leave the store (usually what I do).
A) Do things that require intervention like verify your ID to sell alcohol
B) Help people having trouble
C) Keep people from literally paying for a banana and taking home TVs
They aren’t there to check you out. If you spend usually spend 15 minutes driving to the store, 15 minutes gathering a cart, and then walk away and spend 15 minutes driving home empty handed I believe the joke is on you. The employees get paid at this point $20 an hour to put away your shit while you wasted your own time and gas.
Why waste time in a queue? It’s quicker to self checkout and get back to my own thing.
Self checkout hate is plain stupid, it’s for the customers who wanna get in an out quick.

I don’t work for them.
The cashier at the self checkout is to

B) Help people having trouble

That’s wasted effort for both the seller and buyer. Hope it’s fixed.
Why do you think that is wasted effort? You can have one person monitor 12 machines where 12 people are checking out
Sorry to hear that you live in flyover country. Too bad your state “voted” for this.
Turn in your commie card, tiny tyrant.
