I am currently hating a supermarket worker (against my principles)
I am sure he has his reasons and I’m sure if the reasons are what I suspect they are..I am a very bad person
He speaks very loudly and clearly in a strong westcountry accent. Sort of like a town crier-worzel gummidge-AI .
He always wants to pack your bags and will grab your bag like a pickpocket and the proceed to completely mash up your shopping. He folded a pizza in its box on Saturday. He can crush a near frozen block of butter with his pawsSo even if the scales are fucked, I’m not going to the till if Peter is on shift

In my nearest Saino's Local I rarely buy more stuff than fits in a single bag. It's all about whether there is someone by the tills when I'm about to start scanning:
- If there is then I get them to do their magic to allow my bag to be used on the scales = no delay
- If not I just scan it all onto the packing area and then, when paying, pack it all into my bag with no interaction required.
There's also a way you can scan a bunch of items (5 or 6) onto the packing area and then move them all in one go to your bag which is on the floor. The scales think you've been packing into a bag and lifting it off when full.
In the bigger Saino's then scanning with the app and packing as you go is the answer. Very little nonsense and interaction required.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, self-checkouts that don't work with your own bag. A special shout-out to Sainsbury's who have removed the "Add own bag" button from their checkouts so they fail every single fucking time.
Added to that, supermarkets who are saving on shitloads of checkout staff and still only have one person running all the self-checkouts.
