Recently I went to my favorite local grocery (which is a union shop) very early in the morning and the only available check outs were the "self checkouts"; as there is always an attendant standing at the end of the self checkout area, I addressed her by saying, "I will never use this; if someone doesn't come to wait on me, I shall go to the horrible WalMart which I try to boycott!"
The attendant came to the checkout and performed the work. I asked to see the Manager, but the Manager was not available that early. I asked to see the Union Steward and she revealed that she was the Steward. She agreed with me that she didn't like the self checkouts, but she had no say-so in the decision. I said for her to relay my great displeasure to the Manager.
I did get in contact with the corporate office but I also realize that it was an exercise in futility.
