Ai and self check out actually increase groceries store prices. Slave labor is cheaper then technology,  but young Harvard business majors are told it's new therefore better. Store managers enjoy having to not deal with people as much as possible, because taking the easiest way out is human.

Once a month on the first Sunday of that month I pick a local grocery store, take there carts and a bolt cutter. I cut all the children support in the cart.

I do this so when a soccer mom puts her 2 year old in a cart, it falls backs and hits its head. New generation workers can't replace me if I make them mentally retard. Stand with your fellow workers like ballsalsa and I do.

Self checkouts are all but gone in my city and the only place I know that has AI checkout is Sam’s Club and you still scan your own stuff and they still have a person at the door checking carts on the way out. I bet on a year or so they go back to the old method because it’s not really any different. They just don’t need all the technology to do it.

But you’re wrong about retard labor. The grocery stores in my area hire all sorts of disabled people to do bagging, cleanup, carts. So you’re doing a lot of work ensuring you can’t get even the crappiest of jobs.
