Wing Yip (Chinese Supermarket) in Croydon (well, more Waddon) have the
correct idea. You potter round and fill your trolley.

You queue up behind at most one person, choosing from the dozen or so
staffed tills.

Then you stand back while one bloke unloads everything, the girl rings it up
and another girl packs it for you. By the time you've typed you PIN on the
card machine, your trolley is reloaded with bagged goods ready to push to
the car.

Given tehy are subject to the same minimum wage laws Tescos etc are, why
can't they all do that?


Tescodroids don't breed as fast.
