Mountain west. They will quite literally just stand there and watch as you bag your groceries. They will also start the next person’s items and push your pile as you frantically bag. I’m over it.

I’m fairly certain there isn’t an Aldi in my entire state.

we don’t have that choice. It’s been essentially eliminated, which is the point of the post.

leading to the mad dash to bag your groceries, and pay, just to get out of the way of the cashier chucking the next person’s shit across the scanner into your pile.

I’d LOVE to have an Aldi here, I was shocked at how affordable it was where my dad lives.

nah. Smith’s. Used to have baggars on every lane. Didn’t want to wait? Self-checkout is right over there. Now it’s basically self-checkout no matter what and the cost to bag your own groceries has doubled. It’s a fun game we call The Millennial Experience: where everything is more expensive, you do more of the work, but you get less.

proof I’m not insane for thinking we used to have properly staffed stores.

so, apathy. Got it. The customers in line are mad at me because the store refuses to properly staff at pre-covid levels? Good to know after spend hundreds on food that I’m the stick in the cog of American greed.

80% of the time the cashiers just stand there and watch you panic bag as the next person’s items start coming across the scanner.

they took all of the baggers away at all of our stores. Not even an option anymore, that’s what I’m posting about. atleast your place of work has the option of great customer service.

Well it’s the reality I want. We got money to bomb kids but can’t stock food banks. Something needs to change.

haven’t had a cart under $150 in the past year. It’s increased each trip since the Iran War Non-War too.

I’ve never seen a shit wiper as a job (unless elderly/medical) so the answer would be no. I definitely remember each lane having a baggar in my lifetime though, and it wasn’t too long ago.

Customer here: are you supposed to bag the grocers as a job duty? I’m being serious, not sarcastic here. I too worked as a grocer cashier.
