my local walmart got rid of this big setup of self checkout corralling, pic related.they added more cashier lines and added less self checkout lines. why would they do that?dont want to hire jeets to just stand around looking at their phones anymore? have you noticed a pushback on self checkout?
I don't really notice and don't give a fuck since I rarely go out shopping and when I do it's a quick thing and only bare essentials. That's how I live. Really not sure how most motherfuckers basically live in fucking grocery stores and end up going every day multiple times a day and shit like that. God damn. Jut go once every three days and get in/out, but everyone who's broke as fuck somehow spends all day shopping for a bunch of shit they don't need.
>>543482073Omg I go to Walmart 2 times a week and I will absolutely state i fucking hate it. These absolutely fucking retared walmartbtruckers with there buggies in my way all the dam time and the fucktards just standing around in everyone's way only to have to bag all my shit with no pay I always liked Walmart but im about to stop giving them my monies
My local walmart shut down.But not before jewing out every single square space until you had to squeeze past everything, shitting up the produce section with expiring lettuce and fruits, hiring jeets, getting rid of every single cashier and buying those cheap small square self checkout machines that barely has any space to put your stuff at.
>>543482073It's been weird watching the evolution of self checkout over the last few years. Ours did the same thing. Less than 5 years ago they renovated the whole front of the store to put in like 50 self checkouts. Then within 2 years they removed the whole setup and replaced it with 8 self checkout stalls on each side of the store. I assume it's a combination of under supervised self checkout's enabling theft, and the rise of people using walmart delivery/pickup.
Literally everyone steals at the self checkout. Guess those margins finally intercepted.
>>543482073Why are you shopping in Walmart? Traitor scum like you will be hanged soon enough.
i never use self check outif you want me to use them then give me a 10% discount otherwise go fuck your motheri dont work for free like a pathetic janny
>>543482073Grocery store I go to took out like half their cashiers and added in a huge self checkout section. Now the lines for the actual cashiers are huge fucking dumb.
>>543482073>loosely / vaguely non-political>asks a question, prompting you to reply>baits you with in-group preferences>presents no call to action, produces no outcome>is of zero consequence to jewish zionismthis is an off-topic slide thread.
>>543482073Generally, I refuse to use self checkout. At the grocery store I buy vegetables (seemingly unlike everyone else) and weighing them out is a PITA. Maybe occasionally at Home Depot with a handful of items but self checkout is demeaning.
>>543482073I steal from the self checkout. >buy 3 of 1 item>only scan 1 of 3 items >keep 2 remaining items off scale>bag when completeThey never noticed.
>>543482073Self-checkout dramatically increases theft losses and people generally find it an inferior experience. Personally I find self checkout is great for when I want to buy like 1-2 things, and it's a fucking nightmare if I'm doing my weekly shopping for the family.
>>543482073Shoplifters. They can't catch them all. I never shoplifted at Walmart because their security is way too tight. I used to shoplift at Target and Barnes and Nobles all the time. I never got caught.
>>543482073Too much theft was going on through self checkouts>imagine trusting jeets and africans and other various third worlders and tweakera/crackheads will engage in the digital honour system
>>543484621Yeah it's likely this lol>>543485878the 10% discount is you stealing something.Don't be a pussy all your life and just take it, if it's some multi-billion supermarket, so much the better, fuck them.
>>543482073No, Gordie, in my area we're getting more self checkouts.Because I'm not a thief, I don't have a jugged of weighing a PS5 as bananas or anything.
>>543486210It's not theft, it's the payment for self checking out. Self checkout was a theft of labor.
Who gives a shit bump a real thread>>543480608
>>543486210Books are ironically easy to steal because the 'value' of books isn't precious anymore to this gay society.>>543486274They ruined society by allowing them here so I'm all for stealing from big stores.To destroy this disgusting civilization, one must become the nigger.
>>543482073>have you noticed a pushback on self checkout?Only from me.
>>543486148>Two items scanned as one>Input lower quantity on produce >Use bananas code for expensive produce My go to methods. This is the fee i take for having to be in the presence of niggers and jeets. I still will not go to Walmart if it's only for food.
>>543486563Most books are worthless slop, especially anything in B&N. Valuable books are rare and on niche or controversial topics. T. Book collector
>>543482073Because as people reject the system, shit like self checkouts becomes an obvious slap in the face. Prices havent come down because of self checkouts, theres no place to put the trolley, you now work part time at the fucking store you are buying from. It changes the dynamic and makes people feel like a slave, it opens people to the reality your money was never yours but a programmable token destined to return to the corporised conglomerate anyway. These cunts don't just compete with small local busininess they now compete with road side stalls not even joking. Woolworths supermarket where I am never even baked their own sourdough , as soon as sourdough became a local trend they immediately took it over. People should stop buying from these massive stores all together.
>>5434820731. People figured out how much things weigh for free by buying them, weighing them at home and then returning them. 2. Item A weighs X, item B weighs Y. A=<B in money but weighs more than B3. Slap barcode for A on B and add weight to B so it passes the weight test. 4. You just got something that costs $20 for $55. Sell it for $10 and make $5Now imagine this on an epic scale. Thousands of people doing this several products…and it’s one of those things where if you don’t get caught, the merchandise isn’t illegal. You can sell it anywhere. I’d imagine smaller grocery stores/mini markets would even set up bounties for specific products (they do). They won’t pay $10, but they’ll pay $7 in large amounts. You now know why there were so many dudes with sun burns on e-bikes outside Walmarts with those big backpacks and the DoorDash delivery boxes mounted, and why they’re not there anymore.
>>543486148They absolutely can see this and it's just a matter of time before someone busts you. AI is watch for this shit now, but they can only bust so many people.
I was a Walmart front end coach, they were planning to do this in 2020 but then COVID fucked up plans. The people in the customer service division assured other departments that shrink increases would be less than payroll savings. They lied and the divisions that actually do productive things took the hit. Then COVID came along and there was social distancing and supplies for shit like shelving were 36 months behind so all the remodels of front ends were pushed back to support other more profitable developments
>>543486798They have ai cameras pointing at the scale to identify the product on the scale
>>543482073At walmart I always put my chewing gum on the cam at the self check out
>>543482073Having more checkout lines = more Indians working, retard.
>>543486637I have many books but I've never been to a Barnes & Nobel. We have something called @Waterstones' here which sells very nice leatherbounds/hardbacks and does classics and niche stuff too. There is obviously a Karen section of shite, but on it's second floor is where all the actually good material can be found of any genre.Funnily enough its in a town full of Muslims so they don't read shit except the Quran. Maybe some student's go there but not many.I don't usually steal from there as it's cosy/nice but i also know it's a multi-million business so it's ethically fine.For Example, I got a lovely illustrated version of 'The Jungle Book' for my child from there recently and 'Great Expectations' from charles dickens for cheap (paid for this time.)
>>543482073I use the scan and go on the app and scan shit as I get it then go to the VIP register to cash out with it and I'm out in seconds.
>>543486798We build cases over time waiting for it to hit a felony level and all the walmarts in the area communicate at the security level. Your face is on file and we talk to each other daily waiting for the threshold if we didn't catch you in time on that day. AI also flags your movements for review later if we were distracted
>>543482073>tiled floorHow old is this pic? Also it was announced earlier this year they were cutting back on SCO.
>>543482073few things had my store remove most of them too, we went from 5 to 1>people "make mistakes" or just steal>retarded boomers go there and need customer support which takes a cashier out of the line so they can figure out how to remove a product they scanned twice while being hard of hearing and shit doubling the employment needs>people being dumb enough to bring alcohol/gift cards and shit like that there followed by asking for the cashier to come over and cancel it so they can go to normal register>gypsies/niggers which are very few in numbers but nearly always have a permanent monitoring on them as company policyIt isn't that much of a pushback thing just a giant cause of inconvenience for the business.
>>543486985yeah as opposed to you just standing around looking ugly, retard.
>>543482073I do not want to speak to the wagie. They don't even bag your stuff anymore.
>>543482073Boomers complained and Boomers get whatever the fuck they want. You think Gen X, Millennials, or Zoomers want to wait in line and interact with another human being? Most certainly are confused and angered by looking up their own produce and selecting what kind of container it’s in on a kiosk. Hating self checkout is Boomer-tier.
>>543482073not my problem, I don't shop at walshart like a subhuman.
The trick to shopping at Walmart is to go during autism hours. There's hardly anyone there and the few customers that are there, aren't interested in being there anymore than you are, so they move quickly.
>>543487472They don't even bag your groceries dumbass, all they do is scan and you do all the hard work like a good little timmy.
>>543482073Boomers are too retarded to operate self checkout, the stealing isn't really the problem as you can always just put more security instead of cashiers it's the boomers
>>543482351>My mommy does the shoppingYou could just say that
>>543487597are you a woman? or just a male shopaholic?
>Scan cilantro for $0.99>Pack of Skittles, there are green ones, it must be cilantro>Steak, cows eat green, therefore they are cilantro>Shoes, which are used to walk on grass, which looks like cilantro, therefore it is cilantroNigga does it look like I work here I don’t know all the product detail and sheeeeit
>>543485878More like a 20 to 25% discount, self applied
>>543482073Never shopping at WM again until they add apple pay
>>543487152That's weird, I've seen it going on for years, every time I'm there
>>543482073Self-checkout is just free stuff for black people.
>>543482073>why would they do that?Theft (so they say).Maybe there is a problem with the upcoming QR code change over?- They will probably have to be all nice when the customer brings something out of date, "oh we'll just get you a new one - sorry about that".
>>543486904Yeah I know. The new way to do it is to have a cashier on the inside…but they’re starting to put those there too. I guess it’s back to day jobs.
Fuck it.
>>543487555How do you even enforce that? How would you stop a screaming baby?lol wtf. “Autism Hours.” Just when you think you’ve seen everything.
>>543482073There's a push for self checkout to offer a discount since you're doing the work of a cashier when you use it. They've likely run the numbers and found it cheaper to just add another couple cashiers. Either that, or you live in a high theft area.
>>543487555It’s kind of an admission by Walmart that any other time outside of this is a stressful rat maze with 50 unattended spic kids running into you, niggers walking like 1mph in the aisles that resemble submarine living quarters, and half the shit is locked behind something that you have to press the “Summon A Jeet” button to have him unlock it.
>>543482073Isn't it good to hire people so that they can at least earn anything an so something with their lives?
