Wonders why Jill quitted when there were some opportunities to keep working (though in a different position? Maybe she figured that it pretty much not worth staying there and now have time AND money to look for better opportunities elsewhere?

I think the irony of this plot line is that, with a few years more wisdom post-self-checkout-apocalypse, it turns out most people just refuse to use them. Regardless of quality.

And on top of that stores aren’t interested in making truly autonomous self checkouts. The only times I’ve ever managed to use one at any store without it erroring out requiring an employee card to work again (too many items in bagging area, unknown weight, item removed from bagging area, coupon not found, approval needed) are when I bought three or less items with no discounts.

Of course that doesn’t stop most stores from going out of business entirely and everyone just getting all their stuff delivered instead.
