I avoid them if I can. If the store wants me to work for them, they can pay me. If they don't have any available human checkers, I will pay myself by accidentally not charging some of the items. I have left stores and attempt to tell store managers why.
If we had a sane economic system where jobless folks still got their needs met, I'd be all for automation. But we don't. So every time we allow the corporations to profit with less human workers, we are fucking over our fellow humans.
