I refuse to use those stupid things ever. Heck, if a place even has those at all, it makes me want to shop there less.

Me too. They should give me a discount, 1%, or something to save them the money of an employee plus benefits.

You, and people like you, are the reason why customer service won't go fully automated. Not that it's bad, but it's natural. I imagine even at these restaurants they will have one person at counter and 2 machines that you can order at too.

In this case at fast food restaurants I'd rather have the machine as it's just as easy for me to enter in what I want and any mistake made would be my fault. The cashiers don't like dealing with the customers because the customer is always right and any complaint made legitimate or not is the cashiers fault. At grocery stores it's much faster to have someone working there scanning the items than it is to use the self-checkout.
