I recently saw an ask Reddit question, asking people why they use self-checkout. My answer would have been because that's all that is available anymore. Because Target Walmart the grocery store.. no matter where you're at, there's like one checker in 15 self checkout stands. With the exception of Aldi's. Oddly, the most common answer was from introverts who didn't want to talk to people saying that's why they use the self checkout. Does nobody realize that self-checkout is eventually going to take out all the workforce. It's already happened. Target is staffed at its bare minimum. If you happen to live in one of those neighborhoods where they lock everything inside of a glass cabinet, try waiting around on a Saturday to get something out of that cabinet and see how long it takes for one of the employees to show up. But meanwhile.. I did see about 10 different employees pushing shopping carts around for online orders

And Aldi is looking to implement self checkout, which will fucking suck. The lines move fast as Aldi because they checkers are good. Imagine mee-maw trying to scan her shit and fucking it up. I dread the day.
