We have had a minimum wage for many years.
We have had self checkouts for years.
Self checkouts are always staffed because dumb motherfuckers like using them to avoid queues.
The other non self checkout queues are always staffed too.
Man i thought you guys were meant to be some.kind of pinnacle of civilisation....

Self checkouts are always staffed
What do you mean? They are automated, they don't need to be staffed. Or is it a figure of speech?
[–] ShinyVoater ago
I think he means the tender. All self-checkouts have for things like checking ID or stopping people from walking out without paying.

Increasing minimum wage is a quick way to raise more tax revenues.
Edit: downvoat but no rebuttal? Faggots. 6.2% (employer match) FICA 1.45%(employer match) MEDFICA and SDI in California is 1%.
If minimum wage was 10 and now it’s 15 that’s a huge increase in taxable wage and taxes collected. Who knows where that money actually goes once it’s in the government pockets.

When self-checkout machines started appearing at all the local stores, I hated them. After a while, I found myself becoming rather fond of the things. You see, in human-scanned registers, I always have the problem of picking the wrong lane, with some idiot working it or a nigger who wants to bitch about the price of the goods they're buying. I stand there in line and watch all the other lanes move faster. With self-checkout, this never happens. That alone is enough for me to never let another person scan my groceries.
The last time I picked a human-scanned register over the self-checkout (because now there's a line for the self-checkout and few people want to use a cashier) the stupid nigger forgot to bag all my items. I got home and realized I had no rice, or canned goods. Then I had to drive all the way back to the store. This was when I realized that self-checkout is the future, and human cashiers are right up there with the evening newspaper and those bicycles with the big wheel on them. Their time has passed.

I go get the organic stuff and then pick the cheap item on screen. Take that Walmart.
[–] lord_nougat ago
Shopping at walmart is fucking disgusting, but at least you've found the best way of dealing with a horrible situation.

It's just a scale. Each item in the store has a specific weight. If you put everything on the scale there should be no problems. I used to say the exact same thing as you, about not working for the store. But that was damn near 20 years ago, when these things first started showing up. Now I'm grateful for the chance to interact with one less nigger in a day. Because there are a lot of niggers in my city. There's not even a nice part of town to go to where I can escape them. Just wall-to-wall nogs in every single business like this. And I guarantee I can scan shit faster than any of them.
Edit: And like the other guy said, you're retarded. I've never heard of someone with a +100 IQ having trouble with these units.

i have learned that if there are niggers in the line, then go to another one. niggers are the ones who will hold up the line and not understand whats going on. i used to avoid nigger cashiers, but thats not the case, nigger cashiers in high volume groceries are on auto pilot and do it all day. if they suck, they get fired.
better yet, just drive a few miles out of the way to go to the rich white side of town where you wont have to deal with them.

rich white side of town
There are people on voat who live with or around the negro. Still blows my mind.

Can't fire a nigger unless you replace them with a bigger nigger. "Had to fire Tyrone because he's high at work all day and spit on that old white lady...." enter Shaquishia Dayonte LaPrel.

What kind of stores do you go to? Last self-checkout I saw was maybe 7 years ago at Home Depot.
[–] Dark_Shroud 0 points 2 points 2 points (+2|-0) ago
I use those self check out and self ordering kiosks whenever I'm able to on general principal now. I still have to check food orders because apparently following the instructions is too much for people.

OMG, Get a FUCKING LIFE!! The service that those fuckers offer isn't worth Goddamn 15 dollars, they fuck shit up ALL THE FUCKING TIME, I was just at McDonalds over the weekend for breakfast and they fucked the whole fucking thing up!!! It's a fucking SANDWICH!!

Look at me. You're the nigger now.
Enjoy your NiggerChowtm

Burntdonalds also fucks up on simple automated kiosk orders. Tim Hortons was worse and I never got how they became so big. Independent places seem to suck a lot of ass as well. Only a handful of places that serve decent coffee and food. They then complain about jj beans and Starbucks. Well maybe if they didn't fuck up something as simple as coffee people wouldn't avoid your shit.

I picked up a a happy meal for my nephew. I had to go back because they didn't put the nuggets in the happy meal. Fuck them.

Find a job that isn't as replaceable.
There aren't enough of those. We ran into this problem nearly a hundred years ago when machines replaced most farm work. The end result was a collective effort to stop working so hard (the 40 hour workweek). We're due for another correction to address automation.

Minimum wage is a joke.
Not if you realize that the true minimum wage is $0.

You are paid what you negotiate.
