i hate shopping at kroger because their self-checkout stations never have scales that work and so it thinks you’re stealing and in order to scare you it plays back a video of you from above so you’ll stop stealing but i am not so i just get sad because it shows that on the top of your head you are balding and you’re self-conscious and you’re not a thief you are just 30 and you shouldn’t be balding this soon oh why oh why must it be so

@snazzyq Huh, strange. I’ve never had that happen to me, though their scales are wonky and it does set off a “please remove any unscanned items from the bagging area” alert before immediately taking it away and letting me scan. It’s annoying but I can deal with it.

@snazzyq sounds like Keeps needs to sponsor your videos.

MetalFire,

@snazzyq I had a very similar crisis, the end of the story involved me getting a subscription to keeps that im still questioning

jeffhatz,

@snazzyq Isn’t inaccurate scales a Department of Commerce issue that’s illegal and can be reported?

garyj_co,

@snazzyq lean into it. In the same 🚤. This is fine!

danielton,

One of the most ridiculous things I've seen is when Kroger bought one of our local grocery store chains, the liquor store switched to self-checkout. They have a policy of carding everybody. I think carding everybody is a great idea, but a human cashier has to check the IDs, so what's the point of self checkout in the liquor store?

@snazzyq just wear a hat 😭

gullevek,

@snazzyq Set checkout is just you doing the work. Unless you get like 10% off they can screw themselves

franksmcb,

@snazzyq that wouldn’t be an issue if you were at a Harmons 🤔

Dennis1212,

@snazzyq you made me laugh. I’m seventy eight and use a hair clippers to keep it all slick.

ObsoleteGinger,

@snazzyq i just hate self checkout. I will always go to a traditional lane if one is available

@snazzyq Targets little videos are the worst. It's like they put an old person filter on it. Wrinkles for days.

@snazzyq @siracusa I hate supermarkets with the self checkouts with scales. Fortunately not every store does it.

@snazzyq It was a picture of my bald spot that motivated me to just pave it all. No regrets.

jonathany,

@snazzyq this is why I wear a hat.

I can fit like 3 apples under there and nobody even notices.

Being 69, I like to act like ol’ Grandpa Nelson, look around like I’m lost and yell, “Martha, how many pounds of bananas did you get?”

gfitzp,

@snazzyq @siracusa A perfect time to gasp and exclaim “somebody stole my hair!”

@snazzyq in China when you Jay walk. Camera catches you. Sticks your face on huge billboards near the lights and then fines you. And reduced your social credit score. I know I don’t look at the top of my head that much either. Cheers.

@snazzyq

Many reasons I don't use self checkout. The key one is it takes a cashier's job away.

leemoknows,

@snazzyq Lol 😆 I had a similar experience when installing a video cam. I knew I was old, but dang 👴🏼

@snazzyq The scales quite literally never work. Many stores have disabled them and are moving to camera-based loss prevention tools.

If you’ve ever made it through self-checkout without having scale issues, it’s because it was off to begin with.
