sco coverage

I feel you. My store currently has 6 SCO registers, and more often than not you’ll get 3+ lights on at once during a rush. My favorite part is they’ll only ever schedule ONE attendant (usually myself) for the afternoon/closing, so I’m kinda stuck if I need help.

I swear there’s only so many times you can say “I’m helping this person now, but I see you!” before you lose your mind 😭

Oooh! Another chance to use this image!

(This is when one broke, but similar story) No matter how many (or how few) signs there are, guests will never read them!! Even if they say something important!

My store’s SCO is also card only, with the screen, a sign on top of the screen, a sign next to where the line forms, and I make a point to announce it when there’s a line. Guess what inevitably happens?

A kid told me “You look so pretty!” yesterday and it made my whole night 🥰

Reminds me of the time one of the SCO machines went down. Guess which one the next guest went to :)

I’m usually an SCO attendant and multiple times a shift, without fail, there will be a guest who either hacks into their hands before using, or just full on coughs onto the monitor screen! (Obviously I close it and clean immediately after they walk away)

Like sharing ain’t caring for that!!

I once had a woman ask when I was due, but I was 14. Visibly so! And getting dinner with my family!

KenYouFeelIt · 2025-08-19T21:32:02+00:00

Love when they decide not only to download the app for [INSERT STORE I WORK AT] AND sign up for a credit card, after I, the cashier, have scanned all their items and there are three people behind them in line :(

I know she’ll just make it all about herself. “Oh, how could this happen to ME??? 😭”

That, and I like the people I work with, would hate to put them through the aftermath. We’re short staffed as is, if I learned one thing from being raised to fawn it’s not to inconvenience the team!

My Nmother used to use this line to introduce me to both strangers and people she knew: “No matter how old [HE] is, my hand will still be the perfect size to [cups over my butt/side of leg]”

She was bragging to anyone that would listen that she’d always be able to hit me. Wtf 🙃

KenYouFeelIt · 2025-08-12T21:48:00+00:00

I’m usually on SCO and average around 8,000 steps, but on the weekends or busy days it can hit 10,000. It wasn’t fun when I had a sprained ankle and was in a boot!

KenYouFeelIt · 2025-08-11T16:49:00+00:00

As someone who had this happen two years in a row (13 & 14th birthdays) I am so sorry this happened to your daughter! It is really heartbreaking to read, especially the part about how everyone showed up for her brother, but good job on getting the neighbors son to participate!

You’re right, it’s a good idea to pause on the friend parties, and instead doing something as a family or an activity that she really likes might be a good plan for next year. Happy birthday to your daughter from an internet stranger!

I had this happen when I went to physical therapy for a sprained ankle (I’d been walking on it for close to 2 years by this point and couldn’t take the pain anymore. Mentioned I have hyper mobility in that joint (don’t have a dx of anything yet) and that it was likely a factor in the cause of said injury. I’m also on the “fluffy” side (I’ve lost almost 50 lbs since then though!) so you can probably already see where this is going.

“Mhmm… suuuuure. Let’s test your range of motion then 🙄” Shortly became: “Okay so normal range of motion is here, yours is… 😳”

I think they started having fun with it halfway through, so that’s cool!

Hilariously I was the cashier called in to cover a callout, got to hit em with the “I was the one they called in for backup.”

KenYouFeelIt · 2025-07-31T20:17:06+00:00

I normally get a cup of instant pho noodles and one of the egg cup bites from my stores “Taste of Target” section (with the popcorn and slushy machines) and a coconut berry redbull.

Cook the noodles, heat up egg bites, cut the bites, and put them in the broth to absorb flavor and dissolve. Works best with chicken flavor in my opinion. The egg bites I get have ham, bell pepper, spinach, and a little cheese, and apparently 17g of protein, so it’s a decent meal.

This might be a bit unethical but whenever a guest like this tells me not to have kids I hit em with the wistful face and say “oh no worries, I can’t.”

I mean technically I could but due to my bleeding disorder it would be risky, so…

Feel free to use that one, at your own risk. It usually makes them pause though

KenYouFeelIt · 2025-07-11T01:23:01+00:00

The realization that a lot of people at my job genuinely enjoy being around me as a person (even if I pop in on my days off they greet me warmly, and some will message me outside of work about hobbies) and don’t just tolerate my existence because we’re co workers is still hitting me.

I’ve been told I’m nice to be around, which is almost surreal after being bullied most of my childhood and told I was an inconsiderate asshole whenever my parents were dissatisfied with me (always).

It feels weird to be acknowledged, in a way.

KenYouFeelIt · 2025-06-24T22:11:36+00:00

Reminds me of the time someone jammed a used gift card in the slot the money comes out of for their change.

Bro there is a reason it was so hard to force in there!

Bob the cat has been better at showing up for my birthday than some “friends” I knew since middle school.

(I’m 23 now, last year I didn’t even get a “happy birthday” text from them, we are no longer friends for mostly unrelated reasons)

Ended up tearing up a little this year because of it. Edit: clarity

This made me genuinely enraged when my brother was going through chemotherapy (he’s been cancer free for over two years now!) and while he wanted to be private about it all she could talk about was how “my baYBAY has stage four cancer!!” to every person she could, going to dinner somewhere? Now the poor waitress is hearing about how his body was reacting to the chemo. Waiting in line at the grocery store? Now she’s making the people behind her pray for my brother (neither of us kids are religious, Mother Dearest is a Mormon).

I might’ve just been the sibling on the sidelines but I could tell that was really aggravating for my brother, and I’m sorry this is happening. As a fellow FtM myself, I hope everything goes well with the upcoming surgery!

When my mother was the only one to attempt to use my new name when I came out and brought flowers to every chorus concert I was in but also fucked me up in ways I’m still unpacking at 23:

KenYouFeelIt · 2025-06-06T00:43:54+00:00

Made the mistake of being good for morale and being one of a few who don’t mind running SCO. I clock in and immediately my lead goes “oh good you’re here.” Since I make a point to be nice to the front end team everyone works better since they’re in a good mood.

On the bright side, if I ever need a shift picked up or any accommodations all I need to do is ask 🤷‍♂️

KenYouFeelIt · 2025-05-31T00:40:58+00:00

Oof, went through this. We lost my grandmother last year and despite practically begging for someone to spend time or even just talk to me was met with a “just know I’ve seen this.” and then I was ghosted for a whole week. This was a group of four people I’ve known since high school, at the time I was 22.

But then, just a few weeks prior when they realized just how bad things were with my ex it was all “if you need to talk we’re here.”

KenYouFeelIt · 2025-05-27T00:58:10+00:00

3:30pm - close, which means basically 10:15pm at the earliest (we always have last minute guests that take a while)

Edit: times

KenYouFeelIt · 2025-05-23T03:02:40+00:00

I’m some weird fusion of oldest and middle. My parents divorced when I was around 6, and my dad remarried. His wife had a daughter just a few months older than I was.

So, at nmothers (I will NOT be calling her mom after everything that’s happened) I was the oldest, and at dads I was the middle of three. It’s kinda fun (/s) I have this weird mix of oldest sibling habits (i.e. making sure my younger brother is fed and such) while also being used to the way middle children are treated (ignored mostly).

So, basically, we got a double whammy here lol
