You do the work for the company and pay them! Fuck self-checkout!!

The value added by a cashier is not worth the amount of time I expend waiting for them to become available. Self checkout is a win for me and for the retailer.

You are free to wait for a full-service cashier if you like. I'd rather be on my way.
