Not My Grocery Store

I wish I could find this grocery store. Β I hate self-check out, particularly when I have produce. Β I don’t want to key in codes or weigh apples. Β I don’t want to bag my own. Β Recently, the checker in the only full-service lane closed as I approached, leaving two express lanes free. Β Of course, self-check was wide open. I wheeled right in, remarking there was no full-service check line open. Β She suggested self- check or waiting for a full-service lane.

I told her, β€œI’m not doing that.” Β The supervisor walked over and I voiced my complaint.

She explained express lane was not set up for full-service. Β I explained that I had no intention of using self-check. Β They did check me out. Β I have a real problem with stores expecting shoppers cutting labor costs and expecting me to assume responsibility.
