Tempest in a teapot.

Did they call someone over when they saw the discrepancy? Because, you know, mistakes happen.

I frequently have something not scan, or not come up right. There's a button for help, there's always someone right there anyway, hell, had a clerk walk up and help when he noticed I hit the wrong button. They pay attention.

"I was annoyed"... That a system misreported something? If I was annoyed every time that happened I'd never not be annoyed.

What's with this sudden "self checkout rage bait" this week? Who's pushing what agenda?
