Socially anxious not introverts. Introvert does not mean you dont like being social it just drains more enegy than you get back. Im introverted but I love speaking to people I just need some time alone after. Im actually more anxious using self checkouts than the cashier
Day 4910 of telling people that being introverted and having social anxiety are not the same.
I don’t know in which region in Germany you live, but self checkout is quite common in my region and I love it.
Do you actually want to work as a cashier? If not, why do you want our society stuck in a state where such jobs need to be performed?
Universal basic income and automate everything.
Do you actually want to work as a cashier?
Of course not - that’s why I don’t use the self service tills. I don’t work for the supermarket and I’m not beeping my own damn shopping.
Not everyone wants a career or an interesting job. Many people just want to work some hours and earn some money and that’s fine.
introverts on July 1986:
They are ok, but the implementation in some stores is terrible. The one closest to my home has a scale that measures the weight of the products you scan. Almost every time I use it that scale decalibrates itself or doesn’t properly detect that I put the product down, and locks itself until a cashier comes and solves the issue. And it locks itself for other reasons too, like if a card payment fails, you can’t retry until the cashier comes and unlocks it. The only advantage is the smaller queue.
