I don't hate self checkouts, I hate the people who use self-checkouts. The mom with a cart filled with food to feed 4 people for a week, holding a baby in one hand and trying to scan and bag with the other. The guy apparently shopping for his whole apartment complex, scanning 4 items, paying for them, then scanning 6 different items, slowly working his way through an overloaded cart. The Gen-Z narrating each item into their phone for some reason, also struggling to bag items single-handed.
One of them isn't bad, but two of them will strangle the entire kiosk farm, and make it seem like everyone is a self-absorbed idiot. Never go grocery shopping on a weekend morning.
Exactly. Get in line behind me, I'll show you how it's done! I don't get visibly annoyed that other people exist and also need food. I'll be watching and immediately start scanning my items when a self-checkout opens up. I know to scan the produce barcodes, or how to quickly look up the code. I keep my cart close by, but out of everyone's way. If I have to get an age-verification or other cashier intervention, I let them know as soon as they're available. I put my reusable bag in the bagging area, and efficiently load it as I go. I don't stand in anyone's way... I may even leave you cashback from my debit card sticking out of the machine, because I'm a forgetful dumbass!
