    Prefer self checkout because no talking and I’m typically faster than most cashiers. Nothing sucks more than waiting 3 mins while a new cashier tries to figure out if you handed then a turnip or a rutabaga lmao.

      You really think the average person knows how to ring up produce better than the cashier? I’d much rather interact with a real person anyway, it makes it feel like you’re supporting an actual business and employees instead of a computer with food behind it.

        Which cashier? I’ve seen some that are worse than me (i’ve only cashiered fast food which is different enough that I wouldn’t expect to be good), and some that are great.

      1st world problems. Totally agree though, there are too many cashiers that need to go back to preschool
