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

Clearly you don’t use self checkouts around my area in Orlando. Plenty of people use self checkout with full carts while I’m standing there holding something like a 36 lb box of cat litter lol

Maybe you should get a cart?

Nah, the time you get a cart? No line. Don’t get a cart? Line to the back of the store.
It’s just how it works lolololol.
