Dear supermarket shoppers,
The self service checkout is a brilliant invention and can save alot of time and prevent having to interact with irritating checkout people. However if you do not have the mental capacity to use them without taking an entire week to scan your items please refrain from trying to do so. They do not require the Ian Dowie phd in rocket science but if the concept of putting a basket on one side and one by one scanning the items in that basket and putting them into a bag on the other side seems too daunting stay away. Now incase you were wondering how these clever little things know you've scanned everything and the correct items are then put into the bags it is done by weight. This means you should not place other bags onto the bagging area. Also when you have items that do not have a bar code on if you are unable to simply read a computer screen and select or weigh your items then again fuck off and do not bother using them. They are not some new and exciting toy to be played with and have a laugh over, they are there to make things easier and quicker for people who have the half a brain cell that using these things require. So in future please do not use these unless you know you have the ability to tackle the ever perplexing questions they may throw at you, like "please place your item in the bagging area", otherwise I may have to take my multi packs of redball and smash them over your head. Yes a know such a great sacrifice but that just shows you how much your ineptness at using these things and making me queue for frigging weeks annoys me.
