Earlier this evening, my wife and I ran in to a local Walmart to grab a couple of things before the impending bad weather. The store was super busy but we got our stuff and got out in record time. While waiting in line at the self-checkouts, I observed this individual who had a cart full of stuff, slowly and systematically take everything out of the cart, placing it on the space next to the scanning gimmick. If you are wondering why I found this behavior baffling, it’s because the individual did not remove the items, scan them, and place them in bags. No, they added an extra, unneeded step that probably doubled the amount of time they were using the self-checkout. Seriously, what the hell?!?
