1. The Walmart you're complaining about isn't exclusively self check-out.
2. The self check-out banks have at least one employee, in some cases more than one, to assist shoppers with those very self check-outs.
3. The self check-out banks also have a front end manager to handle anything that the associates can't handle.
4. You're not "entitled" to shop there at all. They can ask you to leave, or prevent you from entering, any time they want for any reason EXCEPT any that violate discrimination law - "protected classes." Saying "I'm a customer and pay your salary" does not make you a member of a protected class.
5. Walmart, Target, BJ's, Sam's, and Costco all have folks at the exits to check receipts. They always have. They're instructed to check randomly AND to check baskets of things that aren't in bags, or baskets that have things on the bottom shelf, where a cashier (or customer) might have missed (or intentionally tried to steal).
6. Enjoy your boycott, and get out of my line. I prefer the self check-out and you're in my way.
Best post of the day. Hands down.
