For all y'all who boycott self checkout because you don't want cashiers to lose their jobs...
This is a picture of the vertical carts that store staff use to shop online orders for curbside pickup and delivery. This new role is seeing greater job growth than the decline in cashier jobs.
Each cart has four shelves where each shelf is divided into three sections. One person can gather multiple orders more efficiently than shopping each order separately. As an in-store shopper, I often see these being pushed around the store.
I'm an old. When ATMs were introduced, there was a panic about the job loss that would impact bank tellers. It turned out that banks could create smaller branches in more locations, and more new teller jobs were created than were lost.
