I once yelled at an old lady for leaving her cart in a parking space. This was an affluent area and she was completely capable of putting it back but her excuse was "that's what the employees are for". I told her to stop being a lazy bitch before she got in her White Lexus SUV she so badly parked in the space.

Not at my local, all of the registers get closed to 1 and the EBT queens still come out because they have nothing else to do, so I end up waiting in line so fatties with their 0 produce, 0 meat, and 0 self awareness can argue with the cashier and ask to write checks.

Whatever happened to self-checkouts that were actually self-checkouts, and that actually worked?

Now they all have an employee standing at a computer where there is a list of every single thing you purchase, and half of them make it so the employee has to poke a button before it actually goes through and prints a receipt. And every single one of the ones that require the employee to poke the button, the employee constantly wanders off to help bag for the regular checkout lanes, or talk to someone, or help someone who can't figure out how to punch in a fruit/veg code or use a scale, or some other bullshit so I just stand there like an idiot and waste all the time I should have saved by not using a regular checkout.

And beyond that there is the absolute bullshit with the fucking bagging area never knowing you have put the fucking product into the fucking bag and giving you an error that the fucking employee has to come over and punch in some code before it will let you continue.

I swear there was this glorious few years in the last decade when they first started having self checkouts, they all worked fine without needing any employee intervention at all, but suddenly for some reason they all got replaced with these new ones that can't stop fucking up and needing to be constantly fucked with.

Walk down aisle with nobody in it. Just can't decide what I want to do for dinner. Just slowly looking at all the shit I've never bought, but I know I'm in the aisle that I want stuff from.
612 people come down the aisle i'm in and want to look at the food i'm currently looking at.

Its never cut girls either, its always disgusting mothers of 4 mutts, old people, or just ugly people who want to be around me.

Shopping carts. This shit is insane. There are lots of people who use a shopping cart to seriously just get a handful of small items that they could have easily carried. These things take up lots of aisle space and fuck up the entire parking lot system in general too. People leave them literally EVERYWHERE. Entire jobs are based around just fucking gathering them up and putting them back where the lazy ass shit heads got them from. I live in the U.S. but in my travels elsewhere, I encountered a great system which solves 1/2 of these problems. You must insert a coin to use a cart, and you can only get your coin back if you return the cart to where you got it from. Perfect. The coin may not be high value, but where I was, coins can be more value than a dollar, so people tend to want them back.

I know its not the cart's fault, its the people. But there should be more systems in place to keep people's apathy in check. I once spoke out to an asshole who just pushed his cart away from him in the parking lot, next to another person's car. I saw him do it and I said "that's a great place to put the cart, right!?" he didn't even speak back he just looked at me, kind of with a shameful expression and got in his car and left. When I go to my car and find someone's cart behind or next to my car, I walk it to the cart storage as if it were my own. Don't leave your fucking carts out loose, /ck/. Don't be that guy, don't fucking be that guy!

My grocery store hired a girl to work the meat counter who clearly has something wrong with her but I'm not well-versed enough in mental conditions to determine what.
She talks very loudly in a monotone voice kinda like a robot, she also won't shut up if you talk to her, like if she goes more than 5 seconds without remarking about something she'll die. She also flags down shoppers who aren't even at the meat counter to exchange pleasantries.
