OT-ish B&Q automated checkout
I daren't go into B&Q if I am feeling at all out of sorts.
I know I will end up in trouble. They don't person the row of tills any more, just have one attendant on the four station automated checkout. So you have to use the damn thing. It is voiced by some kind of neurotic harpy with the vindictive timing so that just as you are lifting the next item out of your trolley, she whines about you putting the next item through the till. After a few items I fell like continually shouting "Shut the **** up!!!!!!!!" One day.......... "Please swipe the next article" "14 pound sledge hammer" "No" "Ouch!" "Stop that!!" "Grrrrkkkkkk" On a related note, if they can't get enough footfall through a massive store/warehouse/hanger to keep the tills busy then the can't be making a profit on the stock they hold. As with HomeBase, their days must surely be numbered. Cheers Dave R |
