Who else reading this story absolutely hates using the ‘self-checkout’ machines that stores across the nation suddenly brought in to ‘replace’ human beings and ‘eliminate’ jobs (and salaries and benefits so they thought) for ‘real’ people several years ago, unwisely thinking it would help them to ‘save a buck‘?
With me myself promising years ago that I’d never again use such a ‘machine checkout’ counter after I had used one at a ‘Dollar Store’ to buy just a couple of items only for the machine to go absolutely haywire, attempting to charge me a boatload more for the items I had carefully scanned in and then having the machine attempting to ‘steal’ my money, we can now report that this kind of ‘experience’ must be happening all across the country to increasingly enraged Americans, people who are often forced to stand in line for 20 minutes or more to buy a single package of gum or a soda.
TRUTH LIVES on at https://sgtreport.tv/
With my local dollar store manager quickly learning that once my cheerful face came in to buy a bunch of new treats for our loving Lab Hootie that she BETTER have a ‘real human being’ at the front of the store to check me out because I’d never again use their ‘machines’ to make a purchase ever again, she also told me months ago that the Dollar Stores across the country would be phasing those machines out before too long because, apparently, there were a whole lot of other ‘real‘ people like me who’d never be using those machines.
And as this new story over at the Daily Mail points out, this kind of thing is not only happening in stores nationwide but one state after another are beginning to create laws to ban self-checkout machines from their stores, though not always because of angry customers, but often because the machines create ‘security concerns’.
And as Susan Duclos and I experienced just this past weekend in an attempt to change our internet service because of threats that our service would soon be ‘out of date’ and they would be raising our rates to an absolutely ridiculous $500+ a month, it’s not just these corporations using ‘non-humans’ in stores that is infuriating to ‘real Americans,’ but them using ‘non-human robots’ on phone lines which are also enraging, particularly when these ‘robots’ keep us on the phone for OVER a half an hour as happened to us, with the ‘machine’ on the other end of the phone NEVER getting us an answer to our questions nor concerns.
And with all of this happening at a time when stores in ‘liberal strongholds’ all across the country are finally learning their lessons on why it definitely DOESN’T PAY to operate their stores in their pro-crime states, with the state of California even putting out new laws to shift the blame for shoplifting and crimes that happen in, or even nearby, their stores to the ‘store owners,’ giving the criminals the freedom to continue robbing the stores blind, costs which are eventually shifted to you and I, isn’t it way past time that the actual GOVERNMENTS that allow that kind of madness are held accountable?
As we had reported on ANP on April 24th in this story titled “The Chickens Are Coming Home To Roost In Democrat-Run Cities From Coast To Coast: Democrats’ Anti-Business, Pro-Crime Policies Create ‘Food Deserts’ They Decry As America Goes Insane,” this kind of thing is absolutely DESTROYING what once were ‘communities,’ with law-abiding citizens actually AFRAID to go shopping for fear of not knowing what they MIGHT run into.
And all of these ‘robotic checkouts’ are feeding the criminals who intend to rob the stores blind, knowing that in California, shoplifting now is ‘de facto’ legal with crooks knowing they can steal up to $949 worth of goods a day and only be charged with a misdemeanor, allowing those committing crimes to make quite a living in California, reselling the stolen goods for 25 cents on the dollar, allowing them to make a whopping $86,000 every year, and tax free!
And with not only stores in liberal cities in California experiencing this total madness but all across the country, from San Francisco to Seattle to New York to Boston, stores closing because of ‘crime made legal’ by the politicians in their state capitols or cities, how long will it be until the feds make this ‘legal crime’ the law of the land? Tick…tock…the clock is clearly ticking and the country moving that way.
