I have mixed opinions on self checkout… but the best is when I go to buy beer, and only beer. Someone that works there has to ID me and plug my birthday into the computer anyway so it’s like shrodingers self check out.
On a more serious note, I enjoy not having to make small talk with the cashier but also would rather not be watched like I’m a thief when I ring out my stuff.
Also, it’s kinda nice to eat all organic fruits and vegetables and only pay the prices for the GMO versions.
They make you let them scan your ID half the time anyways, why not just let you scan your own ID?
In case it's someone who looks plausibly old enough but who "borrowed" Mom's ID. I doubt they have facial recognition to match ID to face on those cheap POSs.
