Question
Read the excerpt from Sora and Yuma’s debate.
Sora: When shopping, using the self-checkout essentially qualifies customers as employees. The customer must scan items, bag products, and enter codes. These are the same basic tasks required of a cashier. So, why does a store need both of them?
Yuma: The duties of a cashier are far more involved than self-checkout. Self-checkout is a luxury offered to busy customers in a hurry. However, this does not qualify a customer as an employee.
What is the most likely reason that Sora lists the activities of customers going through self-checkout?
A: to prove the claim that customers are trained enough to get paid for self-checkout
B: to prove the claim that self-checkout is difficult
C: to prove the claim that cashiers’ duties are as simple as self-checkout routines
D: to prove the claim that self-checkout is eliminating jobs
