Walmart Doing Away With Cashiers

[Synthaholic]

were did he mention covid?....

He didnt.

 

[Synthaholic]

Neither the OP or anything at his link mentions Covid.

I didn't say it did.

 

[Synthaholic]

The walmart I go to transitioned over the past 4 years and went to all self checkout in 2020

Correct. Which was my point. It started happening years ago, before Covid hit, before $15 minimum wage. People want to blame post-Covid employment scene or the minimum wage for these hikes. No, just greed.

Masters....that's about the equivalent of a two year college degree now isn't it?

To be honest, I prefer self-checkout over a live cashier. The few times I’ve only had cash on me and had to use a real cashier cause the automated ones were “card only”, it was a hassle. Human cashiers are slow and inconvenient.

I’ve noticed most the people who prefer real cashiers tend to be the much older crowd.

Guilty as charged--old and I enjoy human interaction.

Don't Know your exact status. Are You top 10%? Top 25%? Middle Class, Poverty Level?

I'm highly educated.
Go ahead and deny that FACT. Do it. I have a Masters Degree.
I'm 60 and retiring this June, with a Pension ( + IRA, + Roth + Additional Savings)

Concerned American Thoughts? (next step for you, call me a Liar). LOOOLOOLLLL

Uhm it's economics 101

 

[Synthaholic]

So. Lose of more jobs from your BS agenda .......That is why I call you fuckers LOCUSTS.

Lay off the crack pipe loser.

You better believe they can detain you. I told you why, look it up.

Additionally, due to the “Shopkeeper’s Privilege” laws, Walmart associates can force you to show your receipt and even detain you in the store if they suspect you of shoplifting.

What's your problem with showing your receipt? You a special snowflake or something?

All liberals on the internet are Harvard grads, billionaire business owners who pay their burger flipper employees $45 bucks an hour with 24 weeks vacations, you didn't know that?

The reason I like the real cashiers is that I like to see people gainfully employed.
When I see the kiosks, I always think to myself that someone either lost a job, or
lost an opportunity to a job.
I guess that would come from being older.

 

[Synthaholic]

Strange...it started here like 3 years ago...and the minimum wage isn't anywhere close to $15 an hour.

It's another fake outrage, false narrative.

 

[braalian]

You can be asked to show your receipt, and if you refuse, you can be detained if they have so much as a tiny inkling that you might be shoplifting. It's called "shopkeepers privilege." Look it up.

Maybe technically. But in practice you really can usually just walk out the door.

There’s been a few times I’ve walked out of my Walmart and the rent-a-guard at the door asked to see my receipt and I said “nope” cause I didn’t feel like stopping. I wasn’t shoplifting, I just didn’t want to take the time to stop.

It’s not like they’d dare try to physically stop you or anything.

Lay off the crack pipe loser.

You fuckers stole them all leftist whore.......Oh..........you like killing jobs.........I ALREADY KNEW THAT ABOUT YOU.

So why is it so expensive to get U HAULS in Mexifornication.........seems like they can't find enough moving companies to RUN FROM YOUR GLORY.

I get the sentiment. But let’s be honest, anyone who wants a job at Walmart can walk in the door and get hired in minutes.

This hasn’t changed with the self-checkouts. There’s still more job openings at Walmart then there are applicants to fill them.

 

[Synthaholic]

Cool...........I don't give a fuck.....No one has ever done it..............but if they grab me and call me a thief and try to rough house me I'M GOING TO KNOCK THEM THE FUCK OUT.

I don't give a shit about your PYSCHO BS from what I just said.

I'll give them a good reason to send me to jail............Now Fuck off

Internet tough guy.

A sure sign of maturity is when you don't brag what you have, how rich you are, or how smart you are.
You're not there yet.

Internet tough guy.

YOU ARE........Well good for you...........trolling is a tough businesses for you......Do you get paid vacations and sick time?

 

[Synthaholic]

I cut up my Costco card after they went full Asshole on masks.........I will NEVER SHOP THERE AGAIN.......I avoid Walmart......Target...I never go there......Dollar Store I go there a lot.

After a long day at work it's quick for essentials.

Good. We don't want your type in our warehouse. Costco is not for low lifes.
