atheists: what do you think of self checkouts?

Posted at: 2015-07-28 
i used to be against them but after working in a shop that sees 20 deep queues at morning rush hour and lunchtime i am acutally in favor of them as there is no time for interaction between clerk and customer, i feel like a machine. it is a different story when the shop is less busy however.

I am a fan of anything that would get me out of a supermarket quicker

I am curious why anyone would think a business decision to make checkouts in a store more efficient would think that has anything to do with religion.

What do self-checkouts have to do with atheism...?

self checkouts make it easier for moral Atheists to steal or cheat

Since I don't see a price advantage when I go to stores with self checkout, I go to stores that hire people to check me out.

It's a machine that reads bar codes! What more proof do you need of the book of Revelation and that the end times are upon us! We are all now the thralls of Satan and his infernal self-checkout machines.

It is definitely going to take away jobs from sales clerks. I prefer them to actual humans because the machine knows everything and doesn't start up a long conversation with every person who has a baby. Fast and efficient like machines are meant to be. However humans clerks are helpful to old people, technophobes and the disabled. There will always be people who struggle with technology so human clerks are still needed.

You are aware that on the average atheists are more moral than religious people, right? Lower crime rate as a percentage of their segment of the population.

The time stance is that it's easier. The moral stance is that it gives the less honest religious people easy chances to cheat.

I'll use them when they provide a discount. Part of the price I pay is for staff.

They do help the lines move a lot faster; but they tend to have a lot of technical problems with them

ill use them from time to time but I hate them. I dislike personal interaction but those machines suck and take away jobs. yet that's the future. id rather they didn't exist, but its the future
