why does modern life hate me ? (join in)
a rework of an old thread but I was reminded of the challenges of modern life tonight at Tesco.
Self scan is an art / challenge in its self by why oy why to stores insist on printing bar codes on the corner of a product (Tesco crumpets is a case in point) so even the seasoned scanners dont even have a chance of getting the scan to work ? Go on - join in !

Agree with you on the barcodes. Particularly when it goes over the edge or when the reduced barcodes has a gap so that it doesn't read!
Tpday my work photocopier decided to play up, not good for a Friday afternoon, grrrrr! |

Self check out I can cope with but our Tesco has the scan as you shop gadgets. Well it takes twice as long to shop and then clearly I don’t look trust worthy because on the few times I’ve used them I have had to get them checked by the store assistant to make sure I haven’t stolen anything. I don’t see the appeal. The only time I use them is because DS likes to play shop keeper!

I always try to avoid the self send machines in Post Offices unless there's a long counter queue and someone to guide me.

Approaches self check out
Brought own bags? Yes- *presses button* Place bags in bagging area *puts bags down and presses done* Flicks back to scan screen for 0.001 second.. There is something in your bagging area, are you using your own bags? Yes I thought we’d clarified this when I said I’D BROUGHT MY OWN BAGS 😂 |

"Please place item in the bagging area"
-Puts item in the bag. "Item not detected, please place item in bagging area" -Lifts item up and then puts it back in the bag. "Item removed from the bagging area, please replace item in bagging area" -Lifts item back out of the bag and puts it back in. "Weight verification required - a staff member is on the way" -Sales Assistants lifts item out and then returns it to the bag. "Item removed from the bagging area please return" -Sales Assistant "Let me just enter my code"... Enters code which says item will remain unbagged despite it sitting in the bag. I mean, what's the point. |
