    I have to scan an item, then wait 10 seconds for the weight sensor to register that I actually put it in the bag. If I have a cart full of shit it’s going to take me 5 minutes just to scan everything. A cashier can blow through that in a minute or two. I wouldn’t be opposed to self checkouts if they didn’t suck ass.

      That is fair, it’s what cashiers are there for.
      I was referring to people who retort with rudeness to a simple offer of self-checkout.

      I usually go for the self-scanning guns with larger buys - I get to bag my stuff as I go and skip the queues and self-checkout bothers, so for me that’s a win win.
