CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 I was in M&S recently and they somehow managed to cordon off the normal checkouts to create a line which led directly to a wall of self-service machines. This resulted in a queue of people who otherwise wouldn't use these bastard machines, and each approached this new technology with obvious trepidation. Most **** around, scanned the same item numerous times, made various errors and pawed away at the screens like apes. It took about ten minutes longer for me to get my smoked ham and cheese baguette than it would if I used a normal checkout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted May 20, 2013 Moderator Share Posted May 20, 2013 People who cant use self-service checkouts. Its not a case of can't For me it's.... (1) bottle of wine - pause, wait for an assistant (2) won't scan - then you even have to physically go get an assistant yourself (happened today too, she couldn't get item to scan either) (3) tube of glue - see wine (4) Painkillers - see wine again (5) item removed from bagging area - no it's still there - pause... (6) if you were human and gave me 99p in copper and 5p's as my change I'd I'd I'd.... happened last week to me, then had to go to customer service desk to explain that over 23p in copper isn't legal tender (well I had time to kill that day) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(1) bottle of wine - pause, wait for an assistant But this one always has the added bonus of the assistant making a purposeful stare at your face just in case you are under 18 and the store manager is hanging around. I like to purposefully stare back or wink and i'm not fussed on the sex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 absolutely refuse to use self service, it's a reduction in staff, it's a loss of a job my extra 45 seconds waiting for Doris to realise that she'd have to pay and so only now is delving for her purse is worth it if it means somebody got a job 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
