What do you think of self serve cashier?

I went to a store couple of days ago and there weren't any cashiers! Everything was self serve! People need jobs, hurray for technology but employment is essential for the nation?

I don't mind them if I just have a few items; however, I agree that people need jobs. Often there will be two self-serve lines open and only one cashier, with 20 people in the line. This happens a lot at my local grocer. They have 12 cashier lines, but often there's no more than two open, with way too many people in line. If it's right before a snowstorm or holiday, they may have at least half of the cashier lines open, but I've never seen ALL of the cashier lines staffed.
@DreamyCrush: I never understood self checkouts at grocery stores. I'd get organic everything and use the plu for the cheap version lol
