I disagree. I generally see one employee per 4-6 self checkout stands. I only go to self checkout regardless of how much I’m buying. I really enjoy the process.
Some of these things seemed like such a good idea to the autistic bean-counters. Hospital spent at least several hundred thousand dollars for robot to deliver meds from pharmacy and stuff to lab, replacing kid making min wage. Was a good idea until robot knocked over old lady breaking her hip. I wonder if settlement was more than cost of robot.
