“Most people can’t figure out the self-checkout”
People can’t figure out how to scan bar codes? Seriously?
People still vote Dem. Enough said.
Normally I see half the stations in some wonky state because the previous shopper failed one of these steps and gave up.
It is not that simple. What would you do when after you have dutifully put every item in bags on the right hand side of the machine where the scale is checking weight to make sure what you are taking more or less corresponds to what you scanned the machine puts up an error dialog saying there is too much merchandise?
Do you know the code that has to be entered to override the error dialog? I don't, but the store employee did.
It isn't the simple cases that cause problems. It is the edge cases where the bar code scanner can't read the code, or the machine has a malfunction, or any one of 100 other problems occur.
Not everything has a bar code. Produce for one.
Half of all students are below average. That's why we need to pay teachers even more.
