Yes pay more as I don't thieve, apparntly 1 in 5 do
and it's increasing sometimes difficult,to detect
Bull****.

That was a comment about your stupid "it's increasing

Just because some ****wit journo working for one of Murdoch's

claims something...
And what matters to the supermarket is whether they
lose more with the self checkouts than they would
lose paying the wages of all the monkeyed checkouts.
Lose has nothing to do with it they are looking at profit margins..
What matters to the supermarket is whether what gets stolen
with the self checkouts is greater than the effect on profits
of paying the wages of all the monkeyed checkouts.
Someones got to refill the shelevs after the stuffs been stolen
And after it has been paid for too.
Stuff that get taken from the shelves and not paid for you mean.
Nope, stuff that has been sold and paid for as it should be.
Paid for by increasing the prices for those that do pay.
Here in the UK TFL has said less people are using the buses, but that isnlt true less people are scanning their oyster cards so they get free travel.
I see it everyday, I;d estimate 30% of bust users aren't aren't scanning in, they just walk on the bus, the driver isn't interesting in confronting them.
But you have to be observant otherwise you'll miss what is going on.
and what happens is the checkout monkeys are replaced with security
staff,
Doesnt happen here. There is just one monkey
checking all 15 self checkouts instead of far more
monkeys monkeying the monkeyed checkouts.
So they put prices up to cover the loses,
And lose sales when anyone with a clue buys from their competitors.
Yes that's what I said sometimne ago, but it takes the supermarkets some time to realise and sort it out.
https://www.news.com.au/finance/busi...afdb86be027a46
Doing the above does cost money, replacing things costs does.
SO how comes no one realsied this from day one.
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/u...-a8370621.html
why should they care you're paying for it.
Not when you buy from their competitors.
Yes that's what I said, they'll loose customers.
which cost more
Costs much less because there is only one of those.
but stuff is being stolen far more than the
cheap labour for checkout monkeys costs.
BULL****.
So why are woolworths in AUS putting cameras on self checkouts ?
Seems a waste of money unless it's for customers to take selfies of them and their shopping which seems unlikely.
One of my friends have just been trainbed uop to operate such CCTV cameras regarding the law as peolpe can be recognised you have to have safeguards in place to protect the innocent.
It takes more than one to keep supermarket stocked.
Clearly doesnt.
Even more clearly it does, otherwise they wouldn't employ them.
There were 4 in aldi restocking on monday.
