Grocery Store Rant

[dmw16]

Ok, two things. First, you should have to pass an IQ test to use the self checkout. It isnt that hard but yet this lady finishes scanning and is just staring blankly at it. I dont understand.

And two, I went to the store and I used the self scan and I finish scanning and go to bag and this b!tch behinds me just starts sending these sodas rolling down towards my produce. I mean come on!

Take your meds.

 

[Nebor]

Weakest rant ever.

 

[zanieladie]

Did you keep the sodas?

 

[cavemanmoron]

i refuse to use the self scan crapp registers.

Keep the Humans working.

go at 2 am

I like the self scan cuz I can charge my brocolli crowns as regular brocolli and save 20cents

And I should have kept the soda.

Yes I hate the slow ppl using self-check out b/c well....they are just so damn slow!

And when they pay, oh dear god it's a nightmare, they dont' even know how to use the machine to pay. I do try to avoid those self checkouts if I can, but sometimes normal checkout and self check out are equally hellish.

I hate how the store doesn't register the fact that items can weigh less than what the stupid scanner can register for, such as kool-aid packs, so when you scan one, it keeps telling you to place the item in the bag. rediculous.

I hate the fact that people still write checks at the grocery store, even though they clearly have credit and/or check cards on them.

You do realize this is shoplifting, right? It is considered price switching.

I used to work at a grocery store and the level of stupidity, laziness, and sheer lack of disrespect that I saw simply amazed me. Most of the people who work in a grocery store, who aren't lonely or on some anti-depressant, hate every last customer. Customers would come up to the checkstand talking on their cell phones, listening to their ipods, or just put their stuff there, leave and expect us to do something. Old ladies, who were usually the nicest people, take forever to write their checks, for the wrong amount mind you, and then they would take forever to put their checkbook away and the next person in line couldn't pay until they left.

you have to take that into account

if you are purchasing self check out friendly items, then use it

but if you are buying a broom, a matress pad and 3 kool aid packs, the self check out is not for you

I was in line (a few customers back) behind some clueless old people at a self checkout who were trying to scan a bag of apples. I couldn't believe the sheer stupidity. They had to have been there for at least 2 minutes scratching their heads over it before the attendant guy woke up and did it for them. The thing reads bar codes you morons, it's not magic!

I actually prefer the self-checkout lines, as long as they aren't filled up with retards in front of me. I like to scan things quickly, flash the frequent shopper thing, swipe my cc, and GTFO without dealing with a slow cashier or a bagger who smushes my groceries.

Hey....if he gets caught, I'm sure it will be an "honest mistake"...

I hate the idiots that have more items than required to be in the express lane. Those fvckin idiots need a bullet in the back of their heads.

 

[Dirigible]

There aren't any self-checkout doohickeys in grocery stores near me. I'm living in the past.

What I do have is a bunch of dang hippies in the store, pissing me off no end. They'll stare at the organic granola display, slowly trying to figure out what all the pictures and words mean, and completely blocking the aisle. I gotta yell at them to snap them out of their trance and get them the hell out of the way. Grrrr.

Marijuana is completely harmelss and is proven to have no ill effects on habitiual users

I shop for food with those carry-around baskets sometimes.
I set it on the conveyor belt. The cashier had the nerve to ask me to empty it.
I said "Why?" and she repeated herself. I ended up complying but ... WTF did she ask me to jump through hoops for no reason?
It doesn't save her work and it makes me expend pointless effort.
IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE IF THE ITEMS ARE IN A BASKET OR NOT, THEY ARE STILL ON THE CONVEYOR BELT JUST TAKE THEM OUT AND SCAN THEM BITCH.
Yeah I'm still pissed at her and that was a couple years ago.

One time I was in the express lane.. I had a few things (cereal, yogurt, bread, beer, lunch meat and cheese) and like 5 cases of water. It may have looked like more than the "20 item limit" the jackass behind me in line had the nerve to tell me I'm in the wrong lane. He didn't even bother to ask me how many items I have or anything like that.

Of course I didn't move, mostly because I already had some stuff on the conveyer, and when the cashier rung everything up and I got my receipt it showed 19 items which I promptly pointed out to the guy behind me. All he said was ?oh.? No apology.
