I’ve never understood the people who seem to not get that some people actually don’t mind scanning their stuff and putting it in bags, and insist that that’s the line between what the customer does and the employee. They also used to carry your groceries to the car for you, and you can also get them to pick everything up, bag it and bring it to your car or house. It’s not like the checkout process is the special part that can’t change.

Yeah, they want to save money by having fewer people get more customers checked out faster. I don’t really care since the part I like, getting finished at the store, happens faster.

I don’t have a problem with self-check. I use it most the time because I usually have < 10 items.

I DO have a problem with only self-check lanes being open or only ONE regular clerk check lane open. both of which happen at walfart.

I know this because I used to work there and policy was to hire floor associates that can run a register so the store won’t need to pay for cashiers just standing around.

so the store won’t need to pay for cashiers just standing around.

Aren’t walmart employees also required to stand all day? Kinda insane to me that they’re not allowed to just sit down
