Ironic?
I just realized that I am so happy to use an ATM and now my grocery store has self check out that I love and I get so geeked over not requiring any assistance from the checker, BUT if I call customer service on the phone and I don't talk to a live person--I am pissed. I hate talking to a computer and punch 0 over and over to try to force the phone to connect me to a live person, but in a bank or grocery store, I have absolutely no use for a live person and resent them.
Is ironic a synonym for odd?

I don't think it is odd or ironic. When you go to a self serve place like ATM, gas pump or grocery checkout you generally know exactly what you want and a live person only wastes time. When you call customer service it is generally to get help or information which is better done by a live person.
