      Is it not the standard? Every store with self-checkout I’ve been to has a single line for all machines. I’ve even seen some stores with a single line for regular checkout.

        Not standard here, but it’s a mix. Same applies to other checkouts: so many people are doing the devil may know what, I’m terrible at picking the fastest queue.

    Not only the self checkout. I usually end up behind someone who’s new to the concept of exchanging goods for legal tender and needs an introduction to it.

    This is of course after they have told the story about why they’re in the store, starting with the new testament and moving on from there…

    I spend a lot of time thinking about how it’s not my place to judge these people, but I think very few of them would manage to sit the right way on the toilet without outside assistance.

      People on their cell phone who act surprised and annoyed that the act of checking out requires a brief moment of their attention.

    This is the kind of person that complains about people only going 55Mph in a 40-50 zone. Like wtf mate. What’s wrong with you people? Everybody’s gotta go through the same thing, so mind your business. You ain’t special.

            Wow. That is the most entitled thing you could’ve responded with and you still said it. Sounds like projection to me. So let me get this straight. When you’re old of age (yes, you) and they decide to change something routine for you and you’re minding your own business trying to get something done, you would rather someone push you aside because they feel their time is more important than yours? Are you serious?

    Have you seen the couple that both get out of the car at the gas station and have to collaborate way too much to work the pumps?
