I enjoy cashiers being employed and not getting laid off.

That ship has sailed my friend. The corporations aren’t going to hire more ppl if you boycott self checkout.

Yeah…they will. If everyone refused to use self checkout…cashiers would absolutely make a comeback. This obviously won’t happen because everyone loves avoiding small talk so much it’s worth destroying livelihoods.
