Getting us prepared to have our living wage bestowed upon us by Bezos. At that point we'll just go into his stores and they'll deduct from our weekly credits. 4951

I am not sure how much I like it but I do think it's the way the world is going. Same thing for banks, grocery stores, etc etc etc.
 
I am a little concerned about the loss of jobs. 4951

I'm a technology guy, and most of the time I love automation, but for some reason I hate self checkouts. I think its because its feels like the store is making it easier for them at my expense by making me do more work. 4951

@ZMAN How do you feel about curbside pickup/clicklist? I see things going this way as well. 4951

@CPAmanda
 
I actually like that, its so easy you just pull up and they put the stuff in your car, its nothing extra for me.
What I don't like is scrolling through 5 pages of produce to figure out what the code for green onions is.
 
Edit: And I almost forgot about the stupid scale that always tells you to remove item from the bagging area. 4951

The curbside pickup is great. Esp if you have sick kids or are sick yourself. Or if the weather is bad. And it is employing another person
 
@Fallon I love curbside, too. I tried it once and have goals to never step inside a grocery store again! 4951

Just think, there goes the rest of the mom & pop shops. If they have anyone besides mom &pop, won't be able to afford them, nor the new tech.
Besides, it won't be long before a couple of things happen;
Mob thieves rush the place and clear it out
Someone figures out they can wrap foil around an object or something silly like that, and get out without paying. 4951

Everytime I see curbside pickup and drive throughs, I think of the movie Wall-E 4951

I don't think this has much to do with minimum wage, as automation and technology get cheaper and more advanced, it's going to automate jobs no matter what the wage. This is going to eventually be a big problem for the economy. 4951

@barsinister I don't think they could get computers to run that slow. 4951
