Here there are like 10 self-checkouts per 1 employee and they’re just there if the machine gets confused about a weight. It’s much better, and faster than waiting in the queue for a manned checkout. I can’t imagine wanting to go backward, where’s the benefit?

Self checkouts don’t work where you are? Odd.

You mean demanding special attention rather than using the self-checkout like everyone else? Not sure I understand.

You may be surprised.

Unfortunately it’s zoning that caused most of this issue. Not size. Dense residential was disallowed for not entirely un-racist reasons, so it spread out enormously instead. On top of car companies lobbying in various ways to make cars essential.

And the crumple zone is your legs, twice the use for the same space!

Jokes aside this whole thread could be summarised as ‘safety’ for the most part.

Because helping others out from under the influence of things that are making them stupid is good for the world in general.

Your previous comment was basically a massive industry wide conspiracy theory though, so their response of a more sensible answer to give you something a bit more concrete to go on was pretty reasonable to me.
