I had a very large woman roll her packed cart up to the self checkout stand next to mine not long ago. She immediately called the attendant over and told her to ring the items up for her and bag them, which the attendant did without question. I couldn't believe it. I'm just standing there wondering...What do you not understand about how this is supposed to work?? And of course everyone else at self checkout had to wait if they had a problem because the attendant was scanning and bagging for that fool. This is our society now.
As I read this I could not help but wonder what the woman's size had to do with this situation. I am sensing a micro-aggression against people who are weight challenged or handicapped by fear of technology.I had a very large woman roll her packed cart up to the self checkout stand next to mine not long ago.

That is rightly in Daily Chuckle if true: a person named “Ton” with micro-aggression toward large people.As I read this I could not help but wonder what the woman's size had to do with this situation.

Does the grocery store pay you to check out items for them? No? I refuse to use self checkout because you take away paying jobs from people who need them. This is a big business cash grab, no thanks.I had a very large woman roll her packed cart up to the self checkout stand next to mine not long ago.

Since the "companies" pay the CC company each time they do a transaction, it seems fair to me. The cash customer has been paying full price for all these years, so they were getting screwed.Companies here in Canada recently won the right to charge credit card users up to 2.5% transaction fees for using CC's on their purchases. Another cash grab. I say FU to these businesses you won't be getting my business.
