Depends on how much you have to buy , with a few items I like self service if its busy at checkouts (as it is nice to be able to say hello to someone as long as they are friendly,), with a full trolley its easier with the service , saw a woman go thru self service with a full trolley & it looked like a major hassle + annoying for us with 1-2 items.
I quite like self-checkouts, perhaps I'm used to it anyway because I worked in a shop years ago for quite a while. But they are useful for getting a few items and being on your way again fairly quickly. But if I have a fair few items I'm more likely to go to a normal checkout.
The only annoying thing about self checkouts is the stupid recorded voice, especially when they've been turned up ridiculously loud! =).
I find the self checkouts a lot quicker, although they do tend to have the odd glitch now and again.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
