Don:
I don't like self-checkouts unless I get a discount for doing someone else's job. And I don't like taking away someone's job -- especially now that I'm retired.
I had a fun problem at one shop. I took in my own bag and put it on the stacker. Serious objections from the machinery because I had the hardcover book I was reading in the bottom of the bag.
It's finally warmed up here; temperature sitting a couple of degrees above freezing and the sheets of ice have mostly melted from the trees. My sister visited. She lives on White Ash Drive and guess what the trees are? Not only were they covered with ice, they are riddled with ash borer. She had a big limb come down when she was walking the dog, just 50 feet ahead of her.
