[Electronics-Talk] Self-service kiosks

[Tom Evans]

Tracy, I will provide, not much of an answer. I frequent CVS and one day they simply said, that they wanted everyone to use the kiosk. I think, codeword laziness as I found a worker and ask if any blind features and how to use. I have enough Vision, to know I got a dirty look as they simply ring me up all the time. I will also say that the self service kiosk is basically always blinking out of order. I don’t know what the problem is. The person behind the cashier with the people standing in line, go back-and-forth to the self-service kiosk to straighten out whatever problem there is. So the cashier has about two customers standing in line and two people using the kiosk, as they go back-and-forth the whole shift. Tom
