Makes me glad I never - ever - use self-checkout.

I'm not interested in helping replace human jobs with robots just so a bean counter in a boardroom somewhere can buy a second boat.

Occasionally, the self-checkout "team member" will come over to me while I'm standing in line and offer to help me use the self-checkout. I tell her, "I'd rather not help {$company} replace your job with a robot."

I expect a lot of times they think I'm a kook. But every once in a while they pause and I can see the realization washing over their faces. Then I feel like I've accomplished a small thing that day.
