In 1961 I had 2 jobs paying $.65 hr. State raised hr. wadge to $.75 hr. both jobs cut my hrs. in half.Made less. Minimum wadge raise = inflation and less jobs for starters.

Opps: One job payed minime $.50 hr.

Awesome, I love this.

Force the return of the trades. Let's start making things again instead of being a nation of burger flippers.

Pwnzor: I agree wholeheartedly!

A local woodworking company has been trying to find apprentices for years now. Hell I even thought about it, but I could not survive on apprentice pay. The owner has been desperate to find people for years and is working with the local community college to create a school/job training program.

One thing I like about Amazon's concept is that it would force people to put things back where they found them. I see it all the time where someone changes their mind about frozen fish sticks then leaves them on a random shelf, and because they may have defrosted they have to get tossed.

Plus, I no longer would have to deal with "unexpected item in the bagging area" because the checkout machines are programmed to be very slow.

Mark of the Beast!

Joking.

Mostly.

I'd miss the cute check-out girls.

I like people.

I think they might still have people stocking the shelves. Robots might have a harder time than a human to verify packaging integrity and potential spoilage.

I vote for the formation of the Four S Brigade!

Supermodel Supermarket Shelf Stockers!

Those fish sticks don't necessarily get thrown out. It's up to the dedicated, happy employee that finds them dripping on the peanut isle.
