in which a european is confused by yanks 

I just saw a video about how USAians are confused by Aldi

Do... do you people not know how to pack bags yourselves? The person said about a job role called a "bagger" who packs grocery bags at the end of checkouts and that's like, all they do

That's not a real thing right?

And apparently US checkout staff aren't allowed to use chairs? What shit is that? That can't be right?

@troubleMoney That's nothing.
I have read of people not only packing their own groceries, so that the store can make moar profit by not hiring bag-boys any more, but they also do the job of the cashier to help the store make even moar profit off their stupid ass. Even mcdonalds tries to get people to do this now to get rid of even the few mcjobs that are left.
Takes ppl twice as long, but the stores don't give a shit - they laugh to the bank.

@gemlog @trebach@mastodon.sdf.org I'm in favour of self-checkout because then I don't have to talk to anyone at all
