We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.
Why does the prospect of some low-wage mook pawing through my fresh produce seem unappealing?

Oh, hell no. Too busy to shop? This sounds like the lower middle class people I know who always eat fast food or highly processed packaged food junk because they are "too busy" to select and prepare real food that isn't trying to kill them. Then I see what sloppy chaos in their lives that constitutes being "too busy", mostly waste of time.
Nope, I will only trust myself to select and handle what I am going to be eating. That small investment in time pays huge dividends in our family's health and well being. What else in our lives should take higher priority?
