The screen must be in another language to them because it’s not that damn hard.

Do you have any literature to back up this bombastic claim?

If you think this is a white women thing, then you don’t shop at Walmart.

Shout out to all the bad boys that ring up their organic vegetables as conventional in the self check out

I use the Walmart College Drive Scan And Go like a frickin boss. They basically converted regular registers into self-check so you can load an entire conveyor belt and let it rip.

I mean it does help that I worked at Albertsons years ago but it's not frickin rocket science.

I get angry when stupid people stare at the screen and I can see there is nothing wrong except the user is a dumbass.

I'm perfectly fine at these but they still suck because even a 5 person line of machine experts is slower than 20 people at a regular system

Ehh, they're very popular.

Hell, I've seen people waiting at self checkout when there are open traditional lanes.

Oh God. I’ll go stand behind a line of 12 year olds before I wait behind one old fricker at Izzos because that line will be gone before grandpa figures out how to touch the screen.

self checkout made me appreciate cashiers more. it's incredible how they never have to look for the barcode. i always feel like a tard spinning my shite around like a rubiks cube to find where the barcode is.

At first I hated these but then I realized that I am smarter than 99% of Walmart denizens and employees. There are also an abundance of check out lines and I have never had to wait. I get in and out quicker than I ever did waiting in line with a cashier.

Are you frickin retarded or you just so fancy you never shop anywhere but Whole Foods?

Walmart is almost all self-checkout now. And like I mentioned, more and more locations are converting existing registers in to Scan and Goes(Self checkout on steroids) that allow you to use the conveyor and all like a normal register.
Your average adult with a brain is using the shite outta them at the College Drive Walmart in Baton Rouge. Two years ago, this location was a clusterfrick to checkout of in the afternoons. Now it's smooth as butta b/c I do it myself.

Protip: Get used to using the hand held scanner. The tech in it is 10 times better and the glass cleaner than the register scanner. Sams Club cashiers have always done it this way if you never noticed.
Once you get the hang of using one hand to scan and one to pull an item and put it directly in the bag, you'll be faster than 95% of selfcheckers.
