You should ask Wal*Mart employees to bag your groceries at self-checkout. Here’s why.

1. You're not getting paid to do it

2. Keeps workers employed

3. Germs live much longer on screens than they do conveyor belts

4. People stealing things from self-checkout is why Wal*Mart is no longer going to be open 24/7. Some aren't even open until Midnight!

5. Wal*Mart tracks your face and purchases you make at self-check out. They have a record of EVERYTHING you've ever bought / stolen / accidentally didn't pay for. Once it reaches $1000, then they will come after you! Facial tracking and AI information is very precise. Ever move to another city and they didn't have Perogies or Ranch Chicken Biscuits but it's suddenly being stocked after a few visits? Makes you wonder… Ever accidentally missed an item or done it on purpose and thought nobody noticed? They are keeping a tab! But if an employee rings you up, you're no longer culpable for any mistakes. You've broken the algorithm.

6. Because they will. A Wal*Mart employee will scan and bag all your items if you simply tell them you'd prefer not to do it. Even at 15 minutes after closing time, they'll still do everything up to the point where you pay.

Make a stand! Change the statistics! Change the system!
