So I’ve been noticing most of the cashiers at big supermarket keep asking customers to use self checkout but little do they know that these numbers are being recorded and once executive of that big supermarket see customers have learnt to use self checkout then they will get rid of cashiers and replace with the self checkout. Same goes for cashiers at Petrol station, today I went to fuel up and had an expired voucher. She gave me a discount and then immediately canceled the transaction and said the voucher is expired. At that time I was thinking she’s trying to save $2 for a trillion dollar company who’s paying her minimum wage. People should use common sense.
I worked as a cashier in a supermarket.
Some stores are very strict about coupons and do monitor what a cashier has in their drawer. I doubt most cashiers would even care if you stole from the store as long as it wasn’t their problem.
These people are just trying to keep their jobs and the corporation that has its boot on their neck might be the only place that will hire them. Do you really expect them all to stop working and protest when they see their jobs being replaced? Come on, they have rent to pay and kids to feed. Have more empathy towards those suffering from capitalism.
I pretty much just read:
“Tell me, I haven’t worked as a cashier without telling me it”
I thought this way but have been told numerous times by retail workers that they like the machines, that they were overworked before they came in and now the workload is manageable.
