the discount for me is time saved not waiting in line to have someone else do a job I can do myself
Do you also want the restaurant to pull out a seat and push you in? do you want the petrol station to pump your own petrol for you? do you want to go to the bank so they can transfer money for you? I cannot for the life of me understand why some people are so hung up on self checkouts
Self checkouts are great. When they work. When something goes wrong, I get to wait 10 minutes for a clerk who’s busy checking out items for other customers. They’re mostly fine for checkout with few items, though.
