Ridiculous supermarket vent....

OMFG- if you are not proficient at using the self checkout feature- then WAIT ON A REGULAR LINE.

Or better yet- do your self-checkout *training* during off-peak hours.

The 2 ladies in front of me BOTH had the same issue. What's ironic is the lady right in front of me TOTALLY rolled her eyes at the first lady when she (lady#1) was having difficulty!!!!

Whew..... I feel much better. Carry on

I hate people that don't know how to work them. The worst is at Home Depot people try to check out their own lumber.

I completely agree. If you do not know how to use it or having a million items wait on a regular full service line!

No no.... you're FINE. THAT happens to the pros ALL the time. It's the ones who do stupid shite like, take their bag (just ROTATE to another empty bag) when its full, or have no idea where the credit swiper/coupon slot/cash slot are, or (and todays winners) the people who just can't follow the SPOKEN directions from the machine.

Heaven forbid they have produceChat Icon (no bar codeChat Icon )

sooo many times i see a self checkout with 15 item minimum and the shopping cart is filled to brim and they are taking foreeeeeeeeever....

also one time was at the self checkout- the lady with her two kids stood inches next to me waiting to finish.....

Re: Ridiculous supermarket vent....

I will not use a self checkout - I think they are taking jobs away from people.

That's my little vent about them!!
