Wait, is this a thing? What's wrong with you people?

I love my self-checkout, so much better than waiting in line for a slow cashier to make chitchat.

Cashiers are fast. I don't want to search for the catalog number for all my produce. The cashiers have it memorized

[–] LemmyThinkAboutIt@lemmy.zip 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Most produce has a sticker with the code on it and most stores have now made it to where you can just scan the little sticker barcode anyways.

Yeah... Or if not, just ring it up as the cheaper version of the same (or similar) vegetable. Pro-tip.

Cashiers are fast.

Not always

I mean, I don't much care about the chitchat, but self-checkout is almost always faster. I only avoid it when I have alcohol or pharmacy items.

[–] NewNewAugustEast@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

We were talking about this the other day. Is it faster, or does it appear faster since they have removed so many cashiers? Like 20 lanes and 1 cashier, with 4 self checkouts.

[–] stevedice@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

Well, most stores over here have around 10-16 self checkouts in the space that would be occupied by 4-6 regular lanes. So I'd say it is faster even accounting for people taking longer.
