The store has chosen to save money by pushing work onto customers via a buggy robot overlord.
Employees are the only person you can complain to.
Just more billionaires making things shitty for everyone.
Yeah I do agree that complaining to employees is useless, but it's also a really frustrating situation and it's not like you can get the CEO on the phone to complain. I wouldn't personally complain at an employee, but I do get how someone might in the midst of such frustration.
As a consumer, what’s your other option?
Pretty much nothing, hence why I said I get it 🤷🏼♂️
