I hate self checkout.
After I'm shopping, no, I don't want to self checkout.
I just want to stand there while the cashier does it for me and bags my stuff.
Really? They used to be so nice & sweet! I guess the pandemic is making everyone crabby. I know I'm done with it. There has to be a better way to handle this. The virus is not going away. It's the new normal and we all have to deal. C'est la vie!
Security staff are stationed right in front of the self checkouts at Flushing, Target to make sure no one is cheating.
Security staff are stationed right in front of both Target stores on UES, right next to those giant detectors. Yet both places get jacked routinely....
Real deterrent is something many NYC retail won't do; hire off duty NYPD through the paid detail program.
Duane Reade used to hire PD, but not sure if any stores still. Target has them at some stores.
Back when Commerce then TD Bank branches were being robbed nearly every day they hired PD officers. That was why when you went into those banks there was a NYPD officer stationed.
To be fair when city made some changes to PDU, many places didn't renew their contracts with city because they didn't like new terms.
No, in the main checkout area. The registers along the outside windows were removed and replaced with self checks. The line for all the registers starts together (a mistake) out in the main area, then when it turns into the long narrow hall going to the registers, the line splits into separate human cashier or self checkout lines.

Where did they install the self checkout? Downstairs where they had the express checkout by the sushi area? I stopped shopping there ions ago because of the rude surly cashiers and the insanely long lines. I would resume shopping there again if they have self checkout open at all times.
