  1. Yet you still pick the items that you want off of the shelf.

  2. So I assume that you still use Western Union to send telegraphs instead of using email?

  3. Where does this end? Do you ALSO expect the grocers to PREPARE AND SERVE YOUR FOOD???

  4. Whoever says, “When I grow up I want to be a cashier”??!? NO ONE, and that is WHY stores can’t hire ENOUGH!!!!

  5. I don’t

  6. NO ONE WANTS THOSE JOBS!!!! And that would raise the prices EVEN MORE!!!!

  7. Most often 1:6 is insufficient, should be more like 1:4.

  8. I hate when stupid and old people try to unsuccessfully use the self-checkout isles and TAKE FOREVER TO DO SO!!!! People should be required to prove that they can use them before being allowed to do so!

  9. Hardly anyone realizes that no one used to get carts and grabs stuff off of the shelves. You used to bring in a list and hand it to an associate to get EVERY SINGLE ITEM for you!!!

  10. Then don’t use it!!!
    2
  11. No

  12. Do you expect people to also pick you up and drop you off at your home?
    2
  13. It’s not that difficult. If you can walk and breathe you should be able to self-checkout.

  46. Neither did anyone else, which is why you need to do it yourself.

  47. There was a time where the store employees actually gathered all of the items for the patrons. You don’t seem to be complaining about doing that.

  51. Everyone is getting a discount as a result. Do you expect your employer to drive you to work?

  52. They should require a license based on people showing that they ACTUALLY CAN checkout quicker!
