You don't need to talk to them at all. A cashier does not need to "evaluate your mental and emotional state." If you don't want to, don't do it.
🤣🤣🤣 yeah ok, lololol. If you can't see the benefit in the person in charge of all the money knowing who they're dealing with, you'll never grasp the benefit of small talk. Have a good day!
If you think a cashier is going to scam you because you don't talk to them then I think you have some serious trust issues.
If you think I think a cashier is going to scam me because I didn't talk to them then you completely misunderstood what I was talking about, just like I predicted.
