So lets talk a bit about my last ever trip to Walmart. I get in line, were fourth, but the person in front is done... except for the kissy faces she has to make to the baby in the cart ... for almost five minutes. Finally she goes to the next person who has 3 items. Somehow this takes five minutes. This should have been my first warning to move. Guy in front of me is obviously complaining to me about her, but I dont understand a word he says. Hes clearly bothered though. Person in front of me has about 10 items. She somehow makes this take 7 or 8 minutes, and messes up his last item in some way, making confused face for a good 2-3 minutes before figuring it out. Finally, my turn. I have 2 full baskets. At Kroger, Im in for a good solid 10-12 minutes of checking out, but bearable. TWENTY FIVE MINUTES LATER (No exaggeration, I timed her) shes done, but she rings up the last item 3 times. Um... you rang up my eggs 3 times. Oh, OK. So ... can you fix it? Um, I guess. She voids it once rather quickly... Im shocked. The second void takes about 6 tries but goes through. She prints my receipt and looks at it puzzled. Tells me she might have to void another one. I say I dont think so, but OK. She looks at it again, mumbles a bit, and then says its OK. I pay... and she crumples up my receipt and throws it away. So ... can I have my receipt? She hits some buttons and it asks her to load paper. She runs off, like, 8 inches of paper and tries to feed it through manually. It errors when it runs out of paper. I say, That receipt was at least this long (indicating about 2 feet). She opens it up again, puts in about 8 inches of paper again. Fail. Tries again - 8 inches... fail. Finally I say, Just give me the receipt you threw away. She says, Were not supposed to do that. By this point Ive had it, so I leave. She makes wildly gesticulated mumbly noises and a manager heads her way. As I pass her, I say, Worst checker ever... a couple of seconds later the manager is pestering me that I didnt finish paying (nevermind that my bank has already texted me that I DID pay and its come out of my account). I go back, yell that Ive already spend nearly an hour in line, Im not waiting for this moron to figure out how to reprint a receipt --- and leave anyway. Never. Going. Back.
