I love self-checkout. But it's the same thing as the garden center... if you have 900 items, you shouldn't ******* be using one.
Or if you are over 55. I swear I just want to punch these people that scan the item, have this blank look until it says to place the item in the bag. Like they need the machine to affirm that yes, you put the item you have purchased in a bag. Then they press the touch screen like it has actual buttons with a huge amout of force. AGgg! It is supposed to be faster.
I think these were designed with people that have "scanning/register" experience in mind. Intuitively, if you have done it, you know where the UPC is for an item. I hate when someone has to look at every side of the box to find it, then scan it. I love the self checkouts but I sometimes find its more of a headache than the regular lines.
In the normal checkout lines, I hate when a cashier takes items that are not hitting the belt sensor before items that are, preventing the belt from advancing, thereby holding up the progression of items on belt-over scanner-in bag.
