Yes, voice systems have been around for quite a while. But there was almost always an easy way to bypass all that and talk to a human. It was just as simple as dialing 0, and there wasn’t hardly much wait time, they tended to have more actual people operating the phones back then.
And you don’t go to the Dollar Store to socialize with people, you go to save money when buying toilet paper and cat food or whatever the hell. But hey, you do you, if you got enough money to piss away just to avoid low income people, then by all means piss away and live in your little bubble. The rest of us tend to look for ways to save money when we can.
You sound like the sort of person that would tell a poor person to go get a job rather than offer them a job cutting your grass or washing your car or something.
That sort of thing is part of the problem too, many would rather avoid poor people than to offer them an opportunity to earn money.
Voice systems have been around since the 80’s.
I have never been in a dollar store. I avoid being around low income people. That just sounds miserable.

You can still bypass. Say speak to agent. I have never had an issue talking to a person. Dollar stores tend to cost more than regular stores.

Hell I would pay double to avoid poor people.
