As a general rule I avoid any and all self checkout lanes. You want me to come into your building, find what I'm looking for, cart it around, check myself out, bring it to the car, and in some cases being the cart back inside.

Should I be unloading the delivery trucks and putting it on the shelves for you too? How many fewer employees can you go for?

Same here, why would I do it myself when they have staff to do it for me? Should I cook my own steak at the restaurant as well?

Also, it would decrease staff and still won’t lower the prices so fuck em

Since when did Tesco's - or any supermarket for that matter - bring stuff out to your car?

Err they do if you order online for collection - their staff pick your order and bring it out to you. You just park in a bay, check in and someone brings your shit.

Granted they, generally, don't carry your shit from the checkout to your car if you do the shopping...
