Reminds me of when we had a free and paid snack area when I was at Lowe’s. No camera in the break/locker room, a nice private place to put your stuff in your locker and eat in peace.

Then they ‘upgraded’ so instead of tap pay you had to go up to a facial recognition camera, sign into an app, buy shop cash, and buy your snack through their app via the ‘aided smart teller’ where you scan your items and do a self checkout situation that took 4x longer than before and kept your change since you have to buy their cash.

Snacks started rotting in place, the once busy room was almost always dead save the few seats outside the camera field of view.

Most folks went in the door harder to be seen from but there were only two slim corners and three seats where you weren’t watched the whole time.

That's... Disgusting. I'm so sorry.

It was vandalized a bit after I left, and associates used to cut people discounts all the time. They paid in others ways, the staff in general started quitting around then too.
