Why I Don't Self Checkout at Stores
I was at a Jewel Food Store today buying groceries. The lines at the regular checkout lanes were a bit backed up and since I only had a few things a helpful clerk suggested I might try the self serve checkout. I politely said, "No no, only if you are going to pay me to do your work for you. I'm not going to pay you and then do all the work too." That was the end of that.

To me, self checkout lanes sends the message that the retailer does not care enough about the customer to even bother assigning a real human being to take his money.
