I'm the opposite. I use self-checkout as often as possible, because it means I have to interact with as few people as possible. I loathe people being forced to ask me how I'm doing, because we both know they don't care. Or when they ask "Did you find everything?"- does it fucking matter? Either I did, which is why I'm checking out, or I didn't, in which case it doesn't fucking matter because thanks to their shitty implementation of JIT their stock has been converted from on-prem inventory to rolling warehouse deliveries every single day. Just let me get what I want and get out.

    I have never seen cashiers ask such things. At most they'd ask whether I have the discount card or if I want one of the featured discounted items. Usually I don't miss anything when wearing headphones.

    Same. Perhaps once upon of time, but I haven't met a cashier with that energy in years.

    Which is great because I also don't like the interaction. My experience lately has been nodding and card flashing - maybe a "Credit" / "Debit".
