Comment

It's another method of reducing the workforce and wages bill. Just like offshoring jobs to India.

So these people who won't be able to get jobs even as a checkout operator where are they going to shop and how are they going to earn the money to pay for the goods they buy ?

I'm beginning to sound like a luddite I know, but people need employment and the number of jobs available in this country is reducing while the number of job seekers keeps increasing, no matter how the government fudges the figures.

Something has to give somewhere.
