I look to that here I Seattle with McDonalds and others with the wage gone up to $15.00.

They could close down to get rid of the...stuff...clogging up the plumbing, and then reopen in a month or two.

With computerized ordering kiosks and self-checkouts in place of that half of the former staff who won't be returning. I wouldn't be surprised if these Wal*Marts reopened with some kind of streamlined checkout procedure.

Our local Walmart’s ditched the self checkout...too much “thievage”.

I could envision a system where you put it on a conveyor belt and there are SKU readers that will automatically scan it no mater what it’s position and then you just have a sacker. The rest of the transaction is just like the self check outs.
