I prefer to go to the bank and withdraw cash, now that my bank is ATM only I want lower card fees or something. The bank saves money on this deal at my expense.
Same thing with self checkout at the groceries stores, they save a lot of money while I do the work. I could only accept it if I got like a 5-10% discount.
Why would you want to wait in line and only be able to access your money during 9-5 M-F
I don't want to pay the same amount of money for less product or service. Also, I think it's nice that a secondary effect is a sort of solidarity with those who lose their jobs to a machine.
Nobody on earth will or should give you a a discount because they found a way to save money. The ATM is actually better service because its available with no waiting 24-7 which no teller is. They found a way to give you better service for less money.
What constitutes "better service" is subjective and based on personal preferences. I consider ATM's as more convenient but not a better service than bank tellers.
Machines still cost money to purchase and operate lol. So fucking entitled.
If the bank can pay for a teller and not charge you extra, an unmanned machine which is at most a high upfront cost with low service fees should be even easier for the bank.
Why do everyone - from factories to grocery - stores want to automate if not to save money through laying off people?
I'm entitled enough to take my business elsewhere.
