Regarding John Ewoldt's column "Is self-service checking out?" (Oct. 5): Well, I certainly hope so. I never use self-service.
All I can think of is, "There's another job gone." I would (and have) waited in line for a real person who gets a real paycheck and hopefully health benefits to check me out.
When asked, I have politely refused to move to the do-it-yourself machines. I have also given my reasons. Every person I've talked to has agreed with me.
I am happy that the message is getting to management. A completely lame idea anytime, but especially now with this tough job market.

When is it antisemitism? Jewish people are in the best position to know.
It is not the place of non-Jews to explain it to one of the most persecuted ethnic groups in human history.
