    I use it because it’s faster.

    I’m not waiting in line for someone else to scan my 5 items.

      Exactly. With with self checkout, customer throughput is increased because if you have 2 cashiers and 20 customers, you’re being limited by the 2 people doing all the work while everyone else waits. If you have 6 self checkout instead, average wait time is 1/3.

      I use it even if it’s slower because I don’t have to pause my podcast to make smalltalk or answer questions like “do you need a bag?”
