Qantas forcing everyone to use self-service check-in kiosks in AKL

[jastel]

There are people to help you at McDonald’s (see: your comment where someone helped you). They are also more than happy to take your order and take your cash at the till. There’s also people to help at Woolies too - you can hit the button on screen to call for assistance, or you can go to a manned checkout. Some of the self checkout machines can also accept cash. I agree airports should have options to assist people who have trouble with machines, and they should be trained and enabled to do so.

On the generational generalisations, you’re attempting to conflate earlier technological uptake by younger generations with a sneering take on perceived antisocial behaviour because we rather not talk to people. I’m not having your spurious slur. I can talk with the best of them, but I’d rather the maccas employee makes my Big Mac faster instead. One further observation from me - I believe you’re wary of change and want things to stay how you are used to.

Yes there are some helpers but never enough.

Hardly a sneering slur to say younger people are better at new tech...first its a well known fact, and second if anything its a compliment to them.
Older people are better at doing things manually or the old way. Put most 18 year olds alone on a farm and they would starve to death...not knowing how to grow stuff or kill an animal.
Different generations have different skillsets.

I dont know your age, and you dont know mine, so it was not a personal attack on you or anybody...unlike the guy who said my response was "rubbish and entitled".

It was my opinion...you have yours...he has his.

And we are really getting off the topic of the AKL Check in improvements....
