Then when you do move fast (I always do because I’m impatient af) a crowd of employees will gather behind you because they think you’re stealing. No, I’m just stressed that I had to watch all these slow fucks take their sweet ass time scanning their shit.
If you’re at a Walmart a good trick if you’ve only got a handful of items is checking out in electronics, apparel or HBA/cosmetics.
But in huge cities those cashiers are oftentimes missing or bombarded with key duty (where they lock up items that cost like $2) so it’s hit or miss.
(Regarding locking up simple items like deodorant: if it takes 45 minutes for someone to come unlock it and the only way to get someone to come over with a key is by shouting “help” very loudly I’m ordering it on Amazon.)
So how many of these “experiments” do we need to have until we make some policies based on the results? I see this all the time, but it’s always just that: an “experiment”
Saw a news story people about people getting arrested for at Wal-Mart for forgeting to scan one item (midwest.social)

Denver experimented with giving people $1,000 a month. It reduced homelessness and increased full-time employment, a study found. (www.businessinsider.com)
