A Traditional Job Soon to Be History
Cashiers are a traditional job that may soon disappear from supermarkets and shops.
Their main work is to scan products and collect money from customers. However, with the development of self-service payment machines, cashiers are no longer necessary. These machines are used by more and more people because they save time. Although I feel a little sad about the change, I know it’s a sign of technological progress. Every job has its value, and this change helps life become more convenient.
