I do not require people to come and inspect bridge pilings, boilers, piping at chemical plants, etc. before they use such, that is what I am paid for. I do not get paid or a discount for self-checkout and as long as I have to pay a baggage fee, the airlines need to check me in.

Flying United cross continent and back. I will be paying $35 for a check-in bag. Will I be charged again on the return flight ?
Yes, you will. This is why I keep the Chase Explorer visa card. At $95 annually for the card, I will save on one RT with hubby $140 in checked bags. So they get you either way; the credit card annual fee or the baggage charge. You wind up paying one or the other.
