    I had someone at target try to direct me to the self checkout… I politely declined with “I don’t work here”

    If I’m doing the work, I should damn well get the employee discount.

      I literally don’t see the point of the employee. Just scan your stuff, pay, leave. You only have to scan what you choose to buy and take, not other people’s stuff.

          My question is: Why have the employee there?

          Why is them scanning my few items and pushing a button better than me doing it? We’re doing the exact same thing and it takes very little work from me. It seems to me like them being there is just adding work for the sake of a job. Pointless. It’s quicker and easier without them in my experience.

          Why not add an additional person to the check-outs to hand me my bags so I don’t have to pick them up from the counter? We can keep adding work for the sake of jobs.

      Right? If they’re not paying someone to scan and bag my stuff, I should be getting that savings.
