      FYI wages are really high in Australia.

      I make almost double down there.

      Cost of living used to be high, but has not risen nearly as much as it has here in Canada.

      Life is pretty easy down under comparatively.

    Was in the local Woolies a couple of days ago, and there was a queue for the register with an employee serving, and there were vacant self serve spots. And it was working because I walked straight up and used one of those self serve spots.

    Still can’t work it out… Is there some sort of protest ? And should I join it?

      I’ll wait a little bit for a manned register, particularly if I’ve got a lot of stuff or items that will give me grief at the self checkout (e.g. really light things). I’m not going to hang around for ages but I’ll take the inconvenience of losing a couple of minutes over the inconvenience of dealing with a self serve checkout.
