Please consider that saving someone's job is worth the 2 minutes more that you spend waiting in line at the cashier.

The cashier job is obsolete.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

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.

Almost every time I've been given the choice, the cashiers were faster. People using the self-checkouts are slow as fuck.

Please consider that people suck.
