One of the things we saw with increases of Minimum Wage in the US was a dramatic increase in the number of 'self Checkouts at stores, and kiosk self order placements at fast food resturants.

Arguably the self checkouts have been a mixed blessing, stores in high crime rate areas see many more "missed" items in self checkouts than otherwise.

A advantage for FF places with self orders is a significant reduction in the number of 'That's not what I ordered" issues.
