People love humyn contact. I love humyn contact, and I'm not even an extrovert.

Idea Description
Unlike the U-Scan® robots at Krogo's, humyns worry about things like "is today the last day of my life", "will I make employee of the month this month", "will I get promoted to full time this year", etc. I know because I couldn't resist the temptation to touch a on the touchscreen one day when I saw one in a not-so-unusual down (or "out of order") state. The U-Scan® robots run Windows® NT®. What kinds of things they think about I can only imagine. Probably kept bizzy (during uptime anyway ) plotting demand curves or something. The skeleton crew of humyns still there haven't started treating me like I imagine they would a shoplifter. The robot is very loudly insistent that I adhere to the policy of scan, bag, weigh always in that order. And keep up the pace. What supermarket first used this technology? An army supermarket or something?
