I refuse to do the unpaid labor of fixing their shitty robot.
If bad business decisions cause accidental shrinkage, oh well.
Lot of mental hoops your jumping through to justify stealing.
Why are u defending a corporation that's making you do a job for free that people used to get paid to do.
Because we live in a society where stealing is wrong. Sorry you don't like self checkouts, but that doesn't give you the right to steal. I don't like speed limits, but I still follow them.
Here's an idea; if you don't like self checkouts, don't use them.
Lol no we don't, we abandoned our dedication to rights 20+ years ago largely thanks to conservatives like yourself.
Now we live in a dystopian hellhole where the working class are herded like cattle and you complain when they demonstrate a modicum of their humanity by rebelling against the regime that cages them.
Fucking 🤡👞
I'll go there. Robot fucks up, I'm stealing.
I tried to pay. Fuck em.
The store is stealing labor from you.
