GUYS WHAT THE FUCK

My brother works at Wal-mart and he told me yesterday our local store just brought in a SHIT TON of new self checkout machines.

wtf /pol/ told me that the automation meme was still like 10 years away. Universal basic income soon right? the jews will take care of their cattle right? pic is from jewgle but the story is true

We have that in Australia and New Zealand.

>>128913231
is the heat in australia frying your brain? they're are bringing in WAY more. The norm so far has been 6 machines and like 15 human lanes (of which many remain closed because the jews won't hire people to man them). They are removing HUMAN lanes and bringing in more machines. The plan is for the machines to replace the human lanes all together soon.

At my local Chase bank they are trying to get rid of human tellers as well both inside and outside the bank. Other major banks are doing the same

But /pol/ told me self check out machines will only come when the cashiers at Walmart demand that minimum wage be raised be raised by two dollars an hour!

Why did /pol/ lie to me?

>self checkout machines
God I cant wait. Dunno how it is in other countries but 90% of the time when I go grocery shopping there's only 2 people operating the checkout machines when theres like 10 total, which in turn means that he queues are insufferably long
>>
>>128913037

Good. I hate going to grocery stores that don't have these. Line is always longer and moves slower when there is a human cashier. There are always fewer cashiers working than necessary to avoid lines because the store understaffs. Cashiers always required to give you some spiel about some promotion the store is doing or sell you on their loyalty card.

the self check out machines are fucking worthless bro, if anything goes wrong in the transaction they lock down and you have to wait for a human to come and enter their employee idea. this happens OFTEN. machine detects more or less items than planned in the bagging area? PLEASE CALL A MANAGER. machine fucks up taking your cash or miscounts? PLEASE CALL A MANAGER. machine fucks up and charges your debit card twice? PLEASE CALL A MANAGER

>inb4 1 post by these IDs
>>
>>128913943

Yes, it's same here. Usually there is a sign saying "15 items or less". If you have a full cart you're supposed to go to the human checkout.

this is how it is already here. there are maybe 20 machine lanes depending on how big the place is, and maybe 3 humans sometimes just for people who are lonely. the human's main job is to stand by the machine lanes and point our which ones are free and help with their admin card when the machine spazzes out

>>128914139
So what you mean to say is that one person can now do the job of 6,8, or 10 cashiers?

Yes, and that's a good thing, because that raises productivity, which allows those 9 other cashiers to get other jobs, or be the assistant to other stores, allowing for 10 times as many stores to be built.

At my Walmart grocery store, there are only two actual cashier lines. The rest (about 10 of them) are self checkout. It's a lot easier tbqh.

We have a ton of these at my local walmart. As far as i know there hasn't been any reduction in cashiers, they just help keep things running more smoothly and reduce lines.
>>
>>128914988
even 10 less than competent cashiers is better than 10 machines. 2 people watching the 10 machines (lets say 4 of which will break) will not be as efficient to the customer as 10 humans. but it will be better for the bottom line which is all companies care about. but don't pretend it's better for "shorter queues" and other crap like that.

I will say that back when I first started seeing the self checkout machines they sucked. They sucked big time. The scale under the bagging area was very sensitive. I felt like if it thought there was as little as one ounce out of place it would spasm. But I haven't had that issue in a long time. I've noticed that they've become way more reliable. What takes me the longest is looking up the stupid codes for fruit and veggies. I not brain dead cashier has the codes memorized after one week on the job, so they're way faster at ringing them up. I don't know why they don't put barcodes on most fruits and vegetables. Better yet put cameras on the machines that can recognize what produce you're trying to buy. And then place the produce on the scale and get charged accordingly.

Also, I don't know why you should even have to go through a checkout... Put a card reader on the shopping carts, and have things get auto rang up as you toss it into the basket. And when you walk out of the store have it charge you. Seems more simple and not very complicated.

>>128915700
>he thinks automation should be stopped for muh jobs
I don't speak out because this is how things should be. You're seriously misusing that poem
>>
>>128913581
that's not gonna happen because people still cart fulls of stuff, you can't bag your groceries and put them in the same cart you're taking stuff out to scan from. Or maybe you should that would be a really good way to start stealing items.

Newsflash, if your productivity is $8 an hour, nobody's going to pay you $10 for the privilege of having you around.

But it's futile to even argue the point, because only low-IQ underclass have such a low productivity, that the minimum wage prices them out of the job market and they don't get economic calculation, even on this retard level.

Of course your first reaction is a fancy word for "gibsmedat", i.e. UBI.

I've never used the auto check out at Walmart, until last night.

Check out was going smooth until I tried to scan my ExtenZe extra strength, but it failed to scan. Had to ask the little Hispaniola lady to help me scan my dick pills. The lady proceeds to hold the product in the air to view it for all to see.
Simply turns it and it scans no problem.

Twenty of these machines do the work of two cashiers. And they still take one human to watch over every ten or so.

And there's no checking out with a cart full of groceries. You have to put everything on the scale and cannot put it in your cart. If you have more than a couple bags of stuff, these are not for you.

Here's an idea: Open a couple more lanes with human cashiers.

When's the last time you went food shopping?

Theyre always adding more self check out lanes. There may be 20 "human" lanes but at most they'll have 5 staffed at any one time (perhaps Christmas season is different).

There are more open self check out lanes in Meijer stores than there are lanes manned by store employees.

And they are setting up self checkout that includes a conveyor belt and bagging station (basically a regular lane with a front facing scanner).

Good. Being a cashier is a shit tier job and people can't out Jew a machine. You have no many idea how often Muslim families come into stores and try to exploit every fucking discount there is.
They can read the discount without a problem, until they reach the part that says "Max 2 purchases per household". Then they try to play dumb and don't understand anything. Or "Max 1 kg/2,2 lbs". Then you see local restaurants coming in to stock up with like 22 lbs of vegetables in total.

Often the shitty cashiers aren't paid enough to even care so they just let it go. A machine doesn't care.

Walmart fag here. My store just got new self checkout machines. They have a smaller footprint so you can fit roughly three where two of the old ones were, and they aren't as touchy about item weights so no more constant robotic screams of "unexpected item in self checkout area". We still have the same number of lanes, and no cashiers were fired.

Yeah, because they changed how they measure the statistics. The US economy is fucked and 20% of the people aren't working. But people that give up and don't search for jobs are not in the work force so they aren't counted.

You have millions on food stamps, you don't even see the bread lines anymore because the poor people stand in line just like you and they pay with a little plastic card just like you. If they where required to get food the same way people did during the great depression it would look pretty much the same way.

this. it's just shifting the work load onto the consumer.
people get paid to operate machines which blah blah blah goods and services, and general economic shit.

now, someone lets you work the check-out machine by yourself along with every other customer who comes in, using an easy-to-use setup that walks you through each step.

but the critical question:
did you get paid for checking out your own groceries in this case?
you're basically your own cashier, so you should be paid for helping yourself, right?

You say this as if it hasn't already been this way for almost a century here in "The West".

UBI saves money because it eliminates the vast bureaucratic costs associated with assessing need and distributing resources.

12 U-Scan lanes,3 fast lanes and 15 regular check out is the Kroger standard. Kroger is one of the largest grocers in America for those who don't know (If you don't have a Kroger you have a company owned by them in your state).
More customers use regular check outs then U-scans because of differing reasons human interaction, better service ( people bag your groceries) or they just don't like tech.
That being said if too many regular check lanes are removed customers get pissed we had a double bank of them and had some removed because of all the complaints.
If you have any fears of automation be sure you let the stores you shop at that you prefer a real person, and if there are real people let management know how much you appreciate that. We spend million to know what people want and do make changes to keep customers.

We have had automated scanners for now about 12 months on our local supermarket
they're little devices you take with you during shopping, you scan the thing you put in your trolley and then you just pay at the checkout, unless they do a random control
It's not common, but it's not rare either, I would guess about 1 in 10 times you'll get asked to get a rescan of everything, if it's all OK they give you some fidelity points, else they fix the error, and you get marked, so you'll have to do more frequent rescans until you're cleared after 3 or 4 months. unless you fuck up big time and they revoke your card.

My brother works at Mobile and he told me yesterday our local gas station just brought in a SHIT TON of new self serve machines.

Then start your own business and get robo workers. Checkmate plebians.

Best technique for accidentally not paying for items at self c/o?
Shouldnt we get a discount for doing it ourselves?

How is this a problem? Low wage labor attracts low quality immigrants like spics and mudslimes.

Fucking hell it pains me to see a spic behind that flag. What is social services that you people have been leeching off of?

theres never any casheirs at walmart only one or two with giant lines

where the fuck do you live? We have had this robo-clerks for like 7 years now.
>>
>>128913037
Being a cashier sucks, why would you not want robots?
>>
>>128920673
There is a problem, adding RFID to low cost products is still not worth it.
Also, scanning them from a cart at once is an unsolved problem due to noise

Checkout assistant is now an obsolete job, just like mill workers pre-industrial revolution. Stop trying to keep us in the 20th century forever and find a new poorfag student job.

There is a couple ways, you can take expensive items and put them in those brown paper mushroom bags and ring them through as mushrooms. Also when you buy vegetables lets say you have 6 onions, tell the machine you only have 3. Lol, I do it everytime.
>>
>>128929332
If you want to buy coffee whitener, ring it through as pancake mix.

LMAO take that jews.
>>
>>128913037
we have loads of self service checkouts here.
of course its always the foreigners who scan expensive items through with barcodes from cheaper items.
niggers surprisingly not as much, they just tend to do good old fashioned shop lifting.
>>
>>128929454
>buy coffee whitener
buying "coffee whitener" kek
>>
>>128913037
Time to loot the place, before they are tied into inventoty

>>128913940
>If you are useless to society, why would others pay you to live? And how do you force them to? They have all the robots
Well that's when you get into it being justified to murder you if you have money.
>>
Fuck Wal Mart. Everyone I know steals hella from there and all self checkers will make it even easier. Fuck you Sam.
>>
>>128929644
Stores with those bulk bins are the best to do this at. Just compare the prices and tell the machine it's the cheapest item. Make sure the item atleast someone resembles what you are buying incase you get caught. But I have never been caught and I have been doing this shit for almost a decade. Fuck machines, they are retarded.
>>
>>128913037
god damn do I hate using those things

also fuck bagging your own groceries, I'm not fucking poor
>>
>>128915700
You are absolutely correct, but I despise standing in the checkout line. Especially when the person in front of me has their cart filled to the brim with shit, and isn't bothering to prepare for putting their planned purchases on the conveyor belt, thus causing more needless delays. That kind of fucking nigger mentality that all trashy people display is what drives people like me to "Nope" over to the self-check out kiosks where I know that since I'm the one doing it it will be done correctly and quickly.
>>
>>128914139
Never had a problem , even produce that needs to be coded in and weighed
> git gud
>>
>>128913037
I fucking hate these pieces of shit, the only reason I even use it is because the lines are always short.

It seems like everytime I place my damn item in the bag it will say "please, place item in the bag." Yes, the item is in the bag. "Please wait for attendant to come help." Then I get stuck waiting for 10 minutes for someone to come swipe their card and walk away so I can continue checking out.

Fuck this shit, give me an actual person behind the check out counter.

Had them for years. They're good in the way that people who know what they want, and/or only buy a small number of items can check out fast. This removes burden from the cashiers.

In their infancy they were awesome because people were afraid of the computers; meaning I could walk straight up to a terminal as the pen was empty. Nowadays lunch rushes involves a line through half the supermarket to the self-service terminals. There's also a semi-arbitrary selection on what items need an ID check, I can buy coffee and caffeine pills and caffeinated teas, but not energy drinks (retailers set an age limit on 15 to avoid government regulation) or beer.

This is very true. I'll totally agree with you on almost every point if this were 3 years ago. Right now there is a culture war of "give me give me".
The reason why your stores will use the robots is because the $15 an hour wage is the start and you know it. You know that that as a business; you will be fucked over and over again. Every new thing these people demand is going to cause you to have increase prices somehow to simply break even.

People right now are mad this "give me" culture. They are mad at people who worked at your stores for 25 years. They are not going to want to keep paying extra for xir,grandma wendy and tammy the felon to live comfortably when the store down the street is cheaper, has robots, and does not just give in to crying kids.

Went to Lowes yesterday, decided to use self checkout. ALL 4 FUCKING MACHINES were reading "unexpected item in bagging area", and were unusable.

Can't wait until the typical walmart creature us forced to use one of these.

Targetfag here. Those self-checkout machines suck. They're too sensitive in detecting weight of items, customers always get errors that need assistance from employees, most of the time they won't take cash. They just suck.
I still have to physically FIFO things around, check expiration dates, tie cardboard bales, mop, sweep, QMOS, clean spills, do research on products in stock, etc.
I mean, they could have little greeter robots like in Japan, but for some town in bumfuck nowhere America, it will take a while.

Self checkout is the greatest shit ever

I hate grocery shopping and dealing with cashiers, I don't want someone going through everything in front of me.

Just let me buy my magnum condoms for my monster dong, lube, cheetohs, and oreos in peace for fuck's sake.

It's really invasive.

New Robot-Powered Korean BBQ Restaurant Might Mean LA

You will become obsolete. Resistance is futile.
>>
>>128913037
People won't use them, I see them around often and people are cared to go near them. They would prefer to wait 10 minutes for the single cashier.
>>
>>128913037
Kinda makes room for more wages I guess. I saw a mcdonalds here advertising $13.50 as a starting wage, when I worked there many years ago I was only getting 9 dollars which was the min wage at the time.


Now instead of 3 cashiers, they have 1 cashier and 2 TV-touch screen machines that you order from.
Personally I prefer ordering from a person instead of a screen but thats the way things go.

Peapod costs me $119/year for unlimited deliveries. I get one each week. 119/52 = about $2.29 per delivery. My time is worth much more than that, not to mention gas, hassle, etc. They take coupons and prices are the same as the store, with plenty of deals. They deliver when it's convenient for me.

As for Amazon, same day delivery is included in Prime. Well worth it for that alone.

All I can say is, I can't wait.

I'm a "Machine Learning" developer, currently have 20 hamburger vending machines in service, all run out of fresh meat on a daily basis.

Everything is fresh as fuck, cooked perfect each time, never touched by a teenager or a shit skin.

This mass shit-skin importation of Mexicans and Pakis aka ((( Muslims ))) is going to end with them getting mowed down by Tesla machine armies.

My chase bank did this about a year ago, i don't really care since i didn't want to wait in line and fill out a deposit slip all the time.

Situations like these are the reason why I am getting a CDL. Delivery is the future of retail most prices on Amazon goes to shipping and handling

What happens when everything is so automated that there is nobody with money to pay for products?

Do we all bury our heads in the sand as the island sinks into the ocean, or will there be a new enlightenment?

I looked at the ground, mumbled "t-thanks...", paid as fast as I could, then shambled awkwardly out of the store.

At my local CVS pharmacy, the machine reads aloud every product you scan. It's quite embarrassing, especially when you want to buy dick lube or antifungal cream or some shit.

Self check out makes it easy to steal.
Instead of ringing the box of 10 protein bars just have a single one in your hand while holding the 10 pack and ring the single one up and put both in or instead of ringing up apricots put in bananas for 6 times less the cost.

I even sometimes stuffed expensive cured ham or London broil beef into lettuce and rang it out as just lettuce for 1.99 at publix.

our checkers have been making over 18 dollars an hour for the past two decades they don't even start at minimum wage. They found that the best number of machines is around 12 you get the quickest check out speed that way with the shortest lines. That's the money saver there quicker customer turn over with a balance of convenience for small orders in U-scans and larger ones thru regular check stands.
