Make the minimum wage something people can live on and then we can talk about them making poor decisions.

Why would anyone making that level of income put any effort or thought into the work? Their labor is almost always worth more than what they’re being paid in places that adhere to the US Federal Minimum Wage of $7.25. You know why the service is better at Disney than a local carnival? Cause they get paid a hell of a lot better to do the job.

I thought this way but have been told numerous times by retail workers that they like the machines, that they were overworked before they came in and now the workload is manageable.

Now as someone who has worked retail, usually (not always) it's because there is a line (some arbitrary number between 3-6) that is too many people in line. So we take you to the next one. But you only need one person to run so many self checkout machines. Typically 4-6. As for the coupon. That is probably the one time she's really allowed to tell a customer no, when typically she has to honor more or less whatever a customer tells her to do, no matter how stupid.

Comfortably-off customers casting aspersions on "minimum wage workers" are the absolute pits.

There is lots to say here but you are too clueless to say any of it. FFS

Aren't you just mad the lady at the Petrol station cancel your transaction? By the way, how does using a voucher work with this fine posting of you?

I pretty much just read:

“Tell me, I haven’t worked as a cashier without telling me it”

in that vein, I find it odd that some businesses that could really use self checkout aisles dont have them - like Target - they're always understaffed and there's always long lines. like, just install some self checkout machines already, jeez.
