I remember back in the day, cashiers would actually tell you "Hey, you have too many items for this lane" when you tried to get into the express lane with too much stuff.
I admit that I sometimes use the self-checkout with a cart full of groceries even though the sign says "12 items or less". I do this when the store is not busy and there is nobody waiting to use it. I'm fast and I can scan and bag a cart full of groceries faster than a lot of people can scan/bag 10-12 items. If the store has even a hint of being busy, I don't use the lane. Usually on Friday evenings it's dead, dead, dead.
Why do I do this?
Glad you asked!
My local supermarket uses...erm..."special people" to bag groceries. I don't like the way they do it, and I don't like the way the cashiers violently manhandle my groceries in the interest of a "fast" checkout.
