Not all checkouts
just 30% in most cases

I didn't say all checkouts but I can see the day that may happen,the ASDA store I use where I am at present, has 32 checkouts,it always had well over half operating up to last year, now they have 24 self serve checkouts and rarely more than 10 of the normal ones operating.

30% however is nearly a third, and that over the Country is a fair number of people not seen to be needed now as only 1 and at best 2 people stand with the self service ones to assist..... eventually.
