Plus, I get to exchange pleasantries with them.  Zunardo always brightens their day.

Same with retired BRF.

I like the idea of self-checkout, and they've gotten better.

But they still seem limited for more than like, 3-4 items.  First you've gotta put everything on that little 12"x12" scale.  Then place everything into bags on the other side.  Once you start piling things up on the scale, or going to multiple bags then all bets are off as to smooth functioning.

I like the self checkout at Walmart. Scan it myself and a lane always open. Most around here hate it.

As for McDonalds my buddy owns 4 of them around here and he said he actually hired 2 servers for each store when they added the self serve.

Old site? He didn’t bother me much really and honestly was impressed at his ability to play the persona he played regardless of the situation.....but it eventually all got to him.

No. 

Oh and as for self checkout, I'm good with it when I have no more than 10-15 items. Any more and it's annoying.

They aren't passing the savings on to the consumers. 

And unfortunately, consumers, as a whole, will never wake up to this.  Ever.

This. I enjoy mobile options even more, though. Sam’s Club has an app where you scan and pay for your shit and they just scan a barcode at the door, so you even skip the self checkout line.

Yesterday I had a work trip to NJ postponed because they got a fuckload of snow today, so I had to scramble for lunch (I usually bring one). I’m not a McDonalds fan by any means but I knew they had mobile ordering. Placed the order before I left, pulled in to the curbside delivery spot, and beat about 20 cars in the drive thru.

Chick fil A app is great. Place order, pick up food when you get there, after so many orders, you get a free menu item (choose 1 of 3 option).
