same. The local self checkouts are a sensory nightmare for me. There’s blinking lights I can’t avoid, a camera+screen I can’t ignore… I just can’t deal with it.
local home depot only has self checkout. I don’t go there any more.
I guess I’m the opposite. The sensory nightmare for me involves having to interact with strangers, and self checkout offers the utopian promise of avoiding all that. But it fails only too often, as the slightest problem brings the clerk over. It’s a bait and switch for my introverted ass.
But that’s the thing, different people feel better in different methods, so why can’t we keep both and let each one choose? Some would even use both methods in different moments Why does things be always forced into others because “it’s the future”?
