Honest mistake

Not only do I not work here, I wish to spend as little time here as possible.
So I’ll hand the scanning and bagging task to someone who has been doing it every day for years and can get that done quickly, in the lane where they provide enough table space to actually work, two people to do the two jobs of scanning and bagging… and all that without the extra steps of weighing every individual item, stopping for assistance if you look at it funny, and stopping to upsell you on the fucking loyalty program.
Grocery pickup > normal checkout > self checkout.
- They aren't nearly as motivated to go as fast as I am, and they can only bag one person at a time and have lines, while usually there are 4-6 machines wide open for me to jump onto immediately.
  I fucking hate going to the grocery store though.
  EDIT: also lonely old people will stop and chit chat sometimes slowing shit even more.
  
  Probably just different grocery stores with different patterns and workflows.
  My experience is a normal checkout line is usually a reasonable wait so unless someone bought three carts of groceries they’ll get through before too long.
  In contrast the self checkout is a clusterfuck of idiots who don’t know how to use it, people not sure where to stand while they wait because there aren’t really lines, and 1 frazzled attendant trying to cover 6-8 people simultaneously screwing up their self-checkout.
  I fucking hate going to the grocery store though.
  On this we agree!
  
  Ugh, yeah, i hate customers that take their damn time. if there's no line, i may go to a traditional register, but i highly prefer waitig for self check out rather than waiting for a cashier
  
  I didn’t realize this was such a contentious subject.
  When this first became a big thing like 15 years ago, I feel like most people hated them. Then it becomes normalized, society shifts.
  
  I'm introverted, I liked them immediately.
  
  My experience has been the opposite, I feel like they were treated as marvelous futuristic wonders at first, and now the more time passes the more I see people opposed to them. I suppose it just depends who you spend your time with.
