They also underestimated how lazy people are. Personally I will never use a self checkout if a have a bunch of produce (which is most trips to the grocery store). I can't be bothered to slowly look up each item in their database.

Yep. When I was a cashier in a grocery store, I had every code memorized except some of the less popular bulk nuts. A human cashier is way faster than a self checkout.

Wait, you guys don't have scanners to scan your items?

Never had to look anything up in a database while shopping.

Your produce has barcodes printed on it?
