Avoid the delivery fee, and go pick it up.

Delivery drivers aren't there for you to fill a social need

And people find it odd that I refuse to do their job and order my own food/ring up my groceries.

[-] Brkdncr@lemmy.world 18 points 8 months ago

Do you leave the cart in the lot too?

[-] Fiivemacs@lemmy.ca 3 points 8 months ago

Parking lot? Only if there's a cart corral thing. Typically I just use a hand basket though.

Look at this clown carrying their groceries around for free. I demand the shop do it, like they used to!

I've always found this to be such a strange hill to die on. I remember standing in line for 10-20 minutes at cash registers and having to guess at which line would be the fastest. Self check out lines might extend in to the produce section but I've never stood in one for longer than 5 minutes.

It's not a hill, I'd just rather talk to humans. My daily life does not have much interaction with people. Have minimal friends. It's my only source of society other then whatever the heck this is rn. I haven't even felt physical human contact until yesterday when someone touched my shoulder.

I also have so much Free time, time is literally meaningless to me.

I know this is not the real thing, but feel hugged

You might look into getting a social hobby

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago

Boomers being afraid of self-checkout is such a blessing

[-] MrJameGumb@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

Wow you must really love standing in lines. I'm glad you found a hobby you enjoy!

[-] OpenStars@discuss.online 3 points 8 months ago

I encourage you to do what you want - dare to hold onto what you enjoy! Plus, give it a decade and it will even become "cool" again, like people will do it purely as volunteers, and brag about how "vintage" their lifestyle is.
