My Costco has self-checkout, and it’s usually faster than the normal lines and works fine. But I rarely run into issues with self-checkout and prefer it.

I have also been to a self check out Costco but they seem to always have one employee helping at every self check stand so I don’t really get the point.

self-checkout should be an express lane

Costco has said express lanes are against the point of what Costco is.

I was at a gas station that recently moved to self checkout, and you no longer scan things. You just drop it all on a table and some ai camera thing guesses the products with like 70% accuracy.

Holy poo poo, this blew my mind. How does this deter any theft? I guess someone thought "hey they could wave the can around near the scanner and say "beep" and this stops that. drat that's so stupid. Drunk Nerds fucked around with this message at 02:59 on Jul 30, 2023 |

Is there a re-guess button that you can keep on pressing until it guess some expensive thing as a cheap one, as that sounds like fun!

There is absolutely no way the automated scanning checkout AI is programmed to err on the user's side, like, ever.

Dollar General stores. We've had tons of them built in our area over the last few decades and no matter how nice or new they are, the moment they've been open a few years the interiors looks like completely wrecks and overpacked with stuff. I can't quite figure it out as other discount stores tend to do a bit here and there with looking nice (Big Lots, Dollar Tree, Five Below, etc.) in their own ways.

Went to go see Oppenheimer and wow people have just unlearned how to be in a loving theater. I’ve seen a few in the past year or so and like half, have been dogshit experiences. What I’ve noticed most are: - people on their phones in the middle of the film like, loving LEAVE. Why pay to see a film if you’re doing this. gently caress you. - people taking off their shoes, and occasionally, their socks as well. They sat next to me during a three hour movie. I wanted to jump out of my skin. gently caress you SF Bio, this screening had like five people why the gently caress did you only have a few seats open to book?? What am I being punished for?? Like the cost of the ticket alone wasn’t great, why are people paying to be on their phone during a film? and take their shoes off and behave like a loving child?? You can just stay the gently caress home for free.

Why not move seats once it started? At least movies aren't like concerts yet where everyone has to have their phone in the air recording it.

I haven't been to a movie theater since like 2016 and I feel like I've made the right decision

But the last few months, the people working the checkout can't even muster a single word while I'm in their line. No "hello," "did you find everything okay?" etc. etc. Just nothing. I mean I get it. You work for Kroger and they're rear end, but I try to sort my poo poo out a logical way for bagging and will do my own bagging if enough baggers aren't available. Lol I'm sorry but deliberately inconveniencing yourself because the cashiers aren't smiling enough for you is kinda beyond just yelling at clouds, that's firmly into Boomer territory.

"I would normally be satisfied with the job a machine does, but I have to go to a normal line because I buy more at once now. What, why doesn't my temporarily assigned servant smile more and say things to please me that I know are meaningless?!"

Please tell me where to find the grocery store where the cashiers aren't required to pretend they care how my day is going, so that I can shop there.

Meijer used to have self checkout lanes with a conveyer belt, but they ripped them all out for regular lovely self checkouts where you're crammed right against the person trying to check out right next to you. Why couldn't they remove a couple of regular check out lines instead of the cool self checkout lanes to put the lovely ones in?

I used to do a lot of night grocery shopping in grad school, only self-checkouts available. I made rear end for money and relied on the specials/discounts/etc but half of them weren’t programmed into the self checkouts. I just shoplifted to make up the difference and I don’t feel even a little bit bad about it.
