The cashier at the self checkout is to

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.
