I don’t use self check out because every one is a horrid user experience.
I always like to ask the fervently anti-self-checkout crowd around here whether or not they pump their own gas, and then why self pumping is okay, but self checkout is not okay. (Note, my community is hopelessly car dependent so most everyone around here drives).
I don’t think anyone pumps their own gas. I think you put the tube in the hole and a pump does it for you, and a computer counts how much you got. I would hate getting gas if I had to pump it like an old timey water spout.
Old timey gas/oil pumps were manual, too. I can still remember a few stores that used to have those. Especially if they had a pier with no electricity near by. Some farms still have them today.
