How is stocking shelves more fulfilling than being a cashier? Cashiers at least interact and talk with people.

I have nothing against people using self-checkout, but making it sound like you're doing something good for people seems absurd and is only there to make oneself feel better when, in reality, jobs WILL be lost because of it. No need to sugarcoat it.




The people stocking shelves can sit down in the US, cashiers can't because of some fucked up reason.

I haven't heard anyone being "fulfilled" by being a cashier in a large supermarket, the kind that usually has self-checkout.

It's not like the mom&pop corner bodega is installing them.
