Aaahhh - you'll be old one day. I use the self service ones - so called "Express Service". Can't help talking to the machine when that woman says please remove item from bagging area - or have you swiped your card every ten seconds - threatened to smack her the other day.

My wife used to be a Checkout Chick back on the early 1980's.

She had to have a box to stand on because she is rather short.

Maybe the old bloke was being slow to give yo time to stare at his rear end.

Probably thought you needed the thrill :lol:

Those automatic checkout thingys are scary. I can never figure out which slot the money goes in or the change is going to come out, and they repeat their instructions in such a patient (but loud) voice that everyone knows I'm being an idiot ... again!
