I prefer to go to the bank and withdraw cash, now that my bank is ATM only I want lower card fees or something. The bank saves money on this deal at my expense.

Same thing with self checkout at the groceries stores, they save a lot of money while I do the work. I could only accept it if I got like a 5-10% discount.

Why would you want to wait in line and only be able to access your money during 9-5 M-F

I don't want to pay the same amount of money for less product or service. Also, I think it's nice that a secondary effect is a sort of solidarity with those who lose their jobs to a machine.

Machines still cost money to purchase and operate lol. So fucking entitled.

Why do everyone - from factories to grocery - stores want to automate if not to save money through laying off people?

I'm entitled enough to take my business elsewhere.

If the bank can pay for a teller and not charge you extra, an unmanned machine which is at most a high upfront cost with low service fees should be even easier for the bank.
