Do It Yourself?

So yeah, I'm sick. It's the end of June and I have a freakin' cold. Shouldn't you get colds when it's, well, COLD? Whatever. I'm just upset that I had to call in sick to work. I'm one broke mamajama.

I was at Shopko today (buying medicine for the above stated malady), going to check out, and I realized that I had two options: standing in one of two freakishly long check-out lines, or going through the self check-out. So there I was, repeatedly trying to shove a slightly crinkly $1 bill into the cash slot when I became a little irritated at our do-it-yourself society. Why, exactly, should we do it all ourselves? What happened to specialization? Now, instead of being good at one thing you have to be good at everything. The do-it-yourself section in any bookstore is huge. It almost makes me feel guilty for wanting to pay people to do the stuff I don't know how to do or don't really want to do. But seriously, what's next? Make it yourself fast food? Sew it yourself clothing? Are we trying to complete eliminate the need for blue collar workers? Granted, getting upset at over a reluctant dollar bill is a little extreme, but I'm sick and everything is irritating.
