Self checkouts
1
I live in Sudbury, Ontario. I do not use self-checkouts at any store because I believe they are job killers. Maybe not today... But certainly tomorrow. Automation and intelligent technology does not create more jobs for the average minimum wageworker... Never have, never will. They do not speed up checkout as advertised as it takes as long or longer for a shopper to check themselves out. I do not want to use them. The Sudbury downtown store I was rudely handled by a cashier when I said I did not want to use one. So much so, I may not shop there anymore. Self checkouts do not make my shopping experience more convenient or more pleasant.
