When they are that rude and stupid they have it coming

[-] neonred@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

You mean "rude" in asking for a cashier? Not sure I understand

[-] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 6 days ago

asking for a cashier?

That would be normal

"I don't work here"

Is a rude response to the question whether they would like to use the self-checkout.

[-] Johnny5@lemm.ee 4 points 6 days ago

Ehhhhh very mildly rude if at all. Like it’s not the most polite response but people are allowed to express themselves too

[-] filcuk@lemmy.zip 1 points 6 days ago

I agree, but the argument is that this should go both ways.
Ok boomer is hardly offensive, unless the target is found to be rather fragile

service is not something the client has to ask for but something the vendor provides. Just like you hold a door open for someone entering behind you, you provide that service, unasked. Having to ask for service is a failure in itself, it's just "no service".

Can't you read or do you just want to be right?

[-] NuanceDemon@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

You mean demanding special attention rather than using the self-checkout like everyone else? Not sure I understand.

[-] eleitl@lemm.ee 5 points 6 days ago

I expect that the management is responsible for adequate staffing. Self-checkout typically doesn't even work. Not a boomer, not USian, YMMV.

[-] NuanceDemon@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Self checkouts don't work where you are? Odd.

[-] eleitl@lemm.ee 4 points 6 days ago

Typically they need attendant attention, to be reset to be usable. Which makes it rather pointless. My expectation that checkout lines are to be adequately staffed with cashiers. This is, however, increasingly not a safe assumption, in Germany. I expect the situation to further deteriorate. As does everything else.

[-] NuanceDemon@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Here there are like 10 self-checkouts per 1 employee and they're just there if the machine gets confused about a weight. It's much better, and faster than waiting in the queue for a manned checkout. I can't imagine wanting to go backward, where's the benefit?

[-] neonred@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

"service" is no "special attention" but I get to the conclusion our misunderstanding might be a socio-cultural thing
