Not always. I usually shop right when they open because I often work 3rd shift. Sometimes they have half of the self checkouts closed and only one person there, and one register open and they’re just not paying attention because it’s always slow early in the morning. So by the time they notice people need help they have several people who need help. And almost everyone always needs help, those machines are an abomination and don’t really work. I’ve had to get help three times in one checkout because once it hits a flag it locks up.
This problem is caused by shopping at busy times, not self-checkouts.
