I also refuse to empty my cart at the grocery store checkout counter. And I refuse to have to swipe my own credit card through the reader. And I refuse to do self-checkout. All those things are THEIR job.
It’s funny, though. When I refuse to do THEIR job for them, they don’t care. They say “take your business elsewhere.”
For a “service economy,” there sure isn’t much service provided.
Most of those supermarkets are doing self checkout to keep prices lower. Look at Aldi, they leave palleted food and bring your own bags and they are the cheapest which is why they are growing.
