Good to know you think people taking food are scum

Yes because if people steal food then everyone else has to pay higher prices because the cost of the food is borne by the business who simply adds it to a balance sheet and works out the minimum profit margin needed to stay in business

You don’t pump fuel entirely yourself though.

Yeah I do, I take the hose out and put it in the car myself, I don’t need someone to do it for me, nor clean my car windshield or tires

I’m aware there is a human who approves to start the fuel pump, this is a separate job

In response to a comment about replacing employees with self service, in a mocking derogatory manner.

lets go over this again:

With the right thing being “not replacing 3 members of staff with self-service shelves or tills”?

i prefer self checkout because it’s far faster and easier and I’m a big boy who can pay for the items I purchase

replacing 3 members of staff does not imply replacing all members of staff

You’re arguing against a strawman you have made
