That is obviously a hot-garbage way to view your fellow citizens providing you with valuable services you need or want. But it's connected to this issue: companies often want to sell anti-egalitarianism. We ought to shame them for doing so, it's contrary to the American creed.
I prefer my cashiers to have chairs, baristas to play music. I try in my own stilted, I-am-bad-at-people way to smile and read name-tags and acknowledge service workers as people because we are all just fellow citizens because that's how America is supposed to work (but doesn't)
