    Couldn't they have taken 10 seconds and asked the bagger just to take a quick look at the cart?

    "Yep, that's what I bagged"

    Would be wild if this was entirely due to the manager thinking it was completely the bagger that fucked up and was checking for that reason.

    Edit: nvm - missed the go to the room and give ID part first time

    I think she went to self checkout so there is no bagger. They thought she didn't scan all of her items.

    self checkout is such a scam. You're doing all the fucking labor for billion dollar companies, but if you fuck up and miss something, they accuse you of theft. Whatever motherfuckers, do I look like a professional scanning machine?

    Kroger used to have a scan and go set up where you’d scan stuff as you shop and then you just turn it in at self checkout. Made checkout take seconds. They just stopped it and it fucking sucks

    It's been years, but when I worked the self checkout counter at a grocery store I basically gave no shits if people tried to sneak something into their bags without paying. The scale for each of the registers constantly would alarm even when you'd use it correctly so I constantly hit the button to reset it, guessing I left lots of theft go.

    DC is a nightmare sometimes. Particularly if you're buying beer and/or wine. Typically one person in the store that's walking around checking IDs and entering the code in your machine. So you gotta stand there with the flashing light above your head for 10 minutes -- "yes, I am buying a 12 pack on a Tuesday night. Don't judge me, it's been a hard week already"

    In college I worked at the dining commons, and occasionally they'd put my stoner ass checking bags, guarding the side door, or the cashier job. That was a big mistake on their part.

    I think Kroger is the only one around us that has them, guessing companies started removing them after they realized how much people stole.

    But it’s more efficient and you don’t have to interact with people. It’s so dummy proof it’s near impossible to mess up. Need more of them.

    Places that let you scan and pay through your phone, allowing you to bypass the registers entirely, are the real MVPs

    No, that's my exact point. I mean, I do scan my own shit because I don't have a choice, but I don't really like it. Particularly when the scale is fucked up or there's not enough room to put all the shit you're buying and you keep having to call people over to clear the code. Also, I'm pretty old.
