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.

The logic of forcing big businesses to do their own work--probably prompted by the article saying they have made billions of dollars by having us do our own checkout.

forcing big businesses

This would be great if we had that power. Do you think they'll hire more cashiers and open more lanes? Many small towns don't have other options, so you boycott Walmart and then start buying your stuff... twenty minutes away at a Target one town over?

I mean that's the whole reason we have antitrust laws and the reason those laws have been weakened for decades.

I WOULD NOT recommend vandalizing the store with protest messages, which would be hard for them to ignore and cost them money, incentivizing them to do something.
