Make people feel safer... right.
Self check outs basically transferred the labour from an employee supplied by the grocer to the consumer, resulting in lower employment costs for the grocer and greater time and effort expenditure for the consumer.
The deliberate programming choices of the self check outs at loblaws are especially annoying :do you want to donate to charity on our behalf? Accidentally scan an item twice? Gotta wait for someone to come cancel it for you. It takes like 5 clicks to get to paying these fuckers.
Then they want to surveill everyone on the way out like they don't trust you, after they transferred all the labour to you?
Ya fuck that, no wonder people get pissed. Like seriously fuck off. And on top of all that you get absolutely gouged.
Went from shopping there weekly to never stepping foot in that god awful store, spend your money elsewhere.
