Self checkouts can just appear to be closed for no reason because of things like it's rejecting coins, or keeps getting coins stuck, or the weighing scale isn't correct. Faults with over complicated machines rather than a personel problem

Sure, problems with individual machines happen. But in my experience, it's almost always banks of machines that are closed due to staff limitations.
