Why does it matter if cashier jobs evaporate. It's a shit job and automation is getting rid of it. That's a good thing. Also, what if I don't mind taking 5 minutes to scan my items FOR FREE just so that I don't have to talk to anyone or wait in line.

The only negative I see is that corporations are making even more money. We should take it from them and implement UBI to pay these cashier's after their jobs evaporate.
