[QUOTE="bluehdmc, post: 1040435, member: 18471"] I refuse to use the self checker, if they were to discount my groceries I might, since I'm doing their work for them. One grocery store by me has more self checkers than regular ones. I don't shop there. Unfortunately semi-skilled labor like picking and packing is going to go the way of assembly line manufacturing. Robots don't take sick days, are consistent, unlike people that have a bad day, no benefits, all you need is one person to fix them. I work at a place that had automatic milling machines, one machine in 20 min could do the work 5 different machinists would take all day. All you needed was 1 person to program the machine and a semi skilled operator to mount the raw piece press start and remove it and start over when it was finished. Just think of how many receptionists have lost their jobs with automated phone systems. [/QUOTE]
