I have seen this exact statement made more than a few times (copy/paste?) I have always been one to embrace change and new technologies. I know humans in general fear change and like things "the way they were". We need to get over it. If there are no more jobs checking out groceries there will be new jobs doing something else. Self check out is so easy breazy I LOVE it!! There might be a learning curve for some - and yes some are handicapped and need assistance that will ALWAYS be available on some level.
Walking past the person checking the receipt - in my opinion is selfish, childish spoiled behavior and acting priviledged.....if I saw you doing that I would not think much of you as a person. It is also disrespectful to the people working in that position. Unfortunately there are always those that are going to try to cheat the system, steal, shoplift. For some its just typical human nature....sad yes!!
BJ's I think is the one that can scan your receipt and then when it scans something in your cart it knows if its on your receipt.....that will soon be everywhere. Great idea!!

Yesterday I went shopping at one such store and the lady checking receipts at the exit was stopping everyone.
I didn't choose to participate in that nonsense, I had already filled my cart, emptied my cart and scanned the items, refilled my cart and so I just skipped the exit line and left.
I heard her saying "Umm - Excuse me “ as I kept walking and raised the receipt above my head, leaving the store.
You can either trust me to do self-checkout, or you can put your cashiers back in place like it used to be.
• I'm not interested in proving that I did your job for you.
• If you want me to be a cashier with no training then that's your problem not mine.
• Keep employing young people and give them job opportunities.
YOU DON'T PAY ME TO SCAN MY OWN SHOPPING.
YOU DON’T GIVE ME STAFF DISCOUNT FOR WORKING FOR YOU.
Signed ......All of us
People we need to share this statement its basically about PROFIT to the stores AND putting People out of a JOB....!!!
