Just want to add, I absolutely hate, HATE, loathe the 'self-checkouts' Wal Mart has put in. I'm in East Central Missouri and our local WM put them in about 1.5 years ago. I refuse, REFUSE to use them. Labor costs are factored into prices and I'll be damn if I'm going to do the work that I'm paying for to have done. Where's the incentive? They want people to use them? Then offer 5-10% off of the total bill.
Sorry...get carried away about crap like that. You should get me started on the MODOT situation here. ... anyway, like I said I enjoy your Sunday posts.
Agree!
Well thank you Miss Woman of Liberty.
Hey....self-checkouts. I think we are tied in our hatred.
America ain’t buying it.
I went into the Royal Farms other day. One cashier, two self-checkouts. Cashier busy with a line as the real checkers usually are. But I go stand in her line cause I will not use those self-checkouts.
So the manager or some boss or something comes up to me and says “Ma’am, you can use this checkout,” he said pointing to the empty line.
I was very sick that day and no way, no way, no way. My eyes even filled with tears. “Come on, I’ll help you.”
Bursting into tears, I sobbed “Please don’t make me use that thing.” I was about to put my goods down and leave the store but the cashier was ready for me.
He came over later and whispered that any time I wanted to try the self-checkout he would be glad to help me.
WELL WHY THEY JUST HIRE A DAMN CASHIER IF THEY NEED TO GET THE MANAGER TO DO THE JOB???
Seriously.
Not gonna happen.
Your suggestion of the discount....that might work.
