    I’m just a person who likes to sit at a table and order like a person that paid to eat at a full service restaurant.

    Neither you nor I should expect there to be “troubleshooting” in a full service restaurant. We’re not setting up a new iPad; we’re paying to be served.

    Self-checkout is rife with not only anti-social vibes, but also involves possible legal trouble…and all so that the store didn’t have to hire a few extra checkout personnel.

    Both of these “innovations” are largely for the benefit of the owners and largely at the cost of the people patronizing these establishments.

    I don’t have a choice of stores, but I’m spoiled for choice in restaurants living in the city. I’ll vote with my feet.
