Self Checkout Lanes. I hate them with a passion. They are rarely faster (some idiot slows them down, because "the machine isn't working.").

6 Self Checkouts just relieved 6 cashiers a shift of their job. They hire one monkey to sit at a kiosk to "fix" it if something goes wrong.

We effectively become employees of the store.

If they were to offer, say, a 3% discount for using them, I might consider. Reducing their costs, while putting more burden on me....No thanks.
