This is a good subject and is why self checking and bagging irritates me. The cost of having a clerk checking out at registers is rolled into the price of the purchases. And with that in mind the cost of having a bagger place items into your bags was also rolled into the same purchase prices. It started with the self bagging and now with the self check-out, yet I have never received a discount on any service that I have performed while still paying a business for that service.

A proponent of slavery are you?

Who would determine skill level? Your ‘employer’?

I wonder how often they would determine your skill level would be high enough to be paid.

Oh wait, this must be ironic....nevermind

Oops sorry, I forgot that creating a business is strictly done for creating jobs and hiring people...Pardon me, I didn't mean to offend your obvious grasp of economics....Cheers

Huh?

Does this respond to my comment in any way?

I don’t get the connection.

As an employee of K Rogers for 18 years the last ten years as the late shift office personnel
, I am totally aware of lack of a work ethic with the current crop of young people.
The supermarket job was my night job, During the day I worked as a building contractor. It was not unusual for me to get to work and find myself short handed. I was constantly confiscating cell phones and listening to excuses for not showing up for work. I do believe the worst excuse came from a young cashier who claimed he had locked himself in the bathroom and had to wait until his mother came home and let him out.
I still don't use self checkout but that's just me, on the other hand if a customer chooses to that is fine with me. As you say it is for customer convenience. Sadly I have seen the lone clerk assigned to the self checkout become overwhelmed by customers not understanding how to use it. It gets worse during the holidays.

With all due respect, Liberals draw attention TO our constitutional heritage. Perhaps you could cite some evidence to the contrary? As for scan-your-own checkout registers, I'm fine with them.

The reason I avoid those checkouts is because when I have used them there is often an error in the pricing of the product or something else is wrong and it is impossible to find a solution. If on sale they sales price is often not found, or the price is to high. Seems like the ones who called in sick are missing in the other departments as well.

Yes, they do but it seems that is not what they are trying to do. Socialism and the Constitution do not mix.

But straight from the horses mouth it's been explained that these are a reaction to the existing issue of folks not showing up for work...they didn't cause it...they exist because it's already a problem.





No idea what you mean.d



Awesome! Good for them, good for the shareholders...glad they are making a profit....that's the goal of all business.



Bummer.

Please enlighten me as to how you can presume motivation of liberals to pull away from the constitution. Are you in their heads as they write and speak? I’m sorry, but you are not at all convincing.

My conception is that applies more to the politicians than any other group. They give themselves their own healthcare, not to be saddled with what they gave to us, continue to give themselves pay raises while the Seniors have not had pay raise in years, have a retirement program that most people would die for. Their fate is in their own hands and not in the hands of anyone else. You cannot impeach Senator while you can impeach the President.

Name one of the top liberals that promotes, in any way, the Constitution. Do they know something that the lesser liberals to not know? Me thinks we are getting off subject here. The Constitution does not promote business or interfere with people right to own or run a business, well let me take that back because in recent years we have seen where they want to make it so some baker has to bake a cake. Baking a cake is not listed in the Constitution while a person's right to practice religion in the way they feel is. Some think that the Constitution should cover everything but it does not. And not only that businesses think they own their employee body and soul, even off work. I read today where a black model was fired because she went to meeting with Trump. Keep them on the plantation.
Acceptance is not progress.
Our Constitution does not support Socialism or a One World Government. The Constitution promotes Capitalism. Capitalism is the root of our country and its main benefit is creativity. That is the main difference between Capitalism and Socialism. Socialism promotes the basic idea that we already know everything and there is nothing else to be learned. While with Capitalism, it's very basics are creativity. The Constitution does not restrict or limit but protects us from an over bloated government.
The top liberals want the government to control everything. They may tell you different but look at the actions, the final results of what they are trying to do.
