    Some people fucking love self checkout. If you ban it, you’ll have disability advocacy groups up your arse on behalf of autistic people and others with social anxiety.

      ADA compliance will kill the entire thing. You can’t charge someone for accommodation of a disability that prevents them from using the self checkout. All the human-staffed registers will be posted as handicap accessible, and they will default to the “discounted” self-checkout price.

      when I recently went back to using a staffed lane, I told the folks I had anxiety about being in the lane, and the cashiers comforted me.

      I have social anxiety, practicing in the staff lane, has helped me with this. At least, in this small area of life.

      I get the point, but if a person doesnt ever push themselves, they wont grow.
