I started using grocery self-checkouts during COVID, but I've kept using them because there's rarely a line (and I'm a misanthrope). I'd probably go back to using regular human checkouts if I had to dig through all my crap to prove what I bought.

Having said that, I've noticed myself making mistakes. I've accidentally failed to scan an item, and I've accidentally entered incorrect codes for produce. When I notice, I fix them, but I've probably missed a few.

I guess the easiest answer is for grocery chains to reinvest some of those windfall profits and hire more cashiers.

My buddy was chased into the parking lot when he said No Thanks. It was an exciting experience where cops were called on a ginger kid for ...

Well, that's what the cop wanted to know.

BestBuy Stalin was given a quick lesson on when you don't call the cops, and my buddy got to reassure the cop enthusiastically that he and his friends wouldn't be seen in the store ever again because this was hitting social media So Fast.
