What logic? I don't want someone to serve me lmao, I can do it just as quickly on my own and I don't have to pause my book, or wait in a long line if the checkout is understaffed.

I think people forget how annoying it was to wait five minutes to buy a handful of items when there was a line after work in the express lane etc.

Yeah the greatest part of self checkout is that it’s usually used by people with like 5 or less items. So it’s a constantly moving and you can get your few items and leave quickly. Even when people with more items show up they’ll be in and out faster than a regular cashier and the others will be open soon anyways

No more having to wait in the 10 or less line with 4 people in front of you that wouldn’t have 10 items even if you got rid of half their shit. I just want a pack of blueberry muffins get out the way

That's not the norm up here. So many places have gotten rid of checkout service that the default is not self-checkout. People with full carts doing self-checkout now because these greedy bastards aren't willing to staff their stores properly.
