It doesn't bother me at all. If they want to small talk then I'll talk with them but if there's a self checkout I will go there instead.

I think people at gas stations who hold up the line to buy a whole bunch of items like they're in a grocery store are more annoying,
but I'm not human, I'm anyall ninjas been on the internet so long that human interaction annoys you
You have 30,000 posts on an internet forum, its not like you have somewhere important to be
I do this everyday
I mainly talk about sports though. It gets me through the day
Self check-out
yea, the many customer service/retail jobs ive held also make me notice bad customer service...And that's the main reason why i'll engage in it, that person is just trying to make the day go by smoother, and having done customer service jobs, you have to know how to talk to people. I can't stand poor customer service, so a smiling small talker is actually kinda appreciated in the grand scheme of things.
But the topic is about when they are asking you about your life story and thus holding the transaction up, b. When they are reading labels, yelling across to other cashiers ""Sharon Look!! When we start selling these? What aisle did you get these from," on every thing they ring up, shun and yes that is an annoyance because obviously it slows me down and furthermore makes themselves less efficient, but I digress. My NT approval rating is at an all time low.
small talk to you about your purchases. Couldn't be more clear than that. You just either or-ed 2 things that are not mutually exclusive. And btw, 30k posts over a period of more than 11 yrs doesn't even amount to 8 per day. OMG, OMG, I'm always on the NT!....but the stuff you just said when you made the thread that it was about small talk.
....and your examples were questions about the purchases. so which one is it buddy?
I still work retail...
I only greet you if I see you...
If you need help, you better ask because I'm not asking for you..
Changing lives, one cashier at a time.I went to the Supermarket today just to pick up some water and I was going to hit the self checkout but this thread made me do other wise. Went to this line with this girl running it. This is the supermarket by my house so I go there pretty often and shes never one to make small talk. She seems like she doesnt like working there. So I took it upon myself to make small talk with her. She was wearing some other guys nametag so I just make jokes about that. Put a smile on her face and hopefully made her day easier.
looks like you need to buy your groceries on amazon. tough life when a cashier trying to be nice is the most annoying thing in your day.
If it were possible, it would actually save me a significant amount of time and money since I have to drive into town to get my groceries or pay Yeezy resale prices at the neighborhood grocery store. But buying produce sight unseen, no bueno. They have that in London though, and OKC has a drive through market, but I don't live there so I've never been. You're right though, firstworldproblems.looks like you need to buy your groceries on amazon. tough life when a cashier trying to be nice is the most annoying thing in your day.
Rhetorical question, no there is not.
"Oh, I've never seen these before, are they good? I have to try them."
"Vegetables, huh? Eating healthy are we?"
"Oh wow I didn't know we sold these, you gotta come back and tell me how they are."
And no, I don't want to sign up for a new credit card and incur potentially up to 1000's in new debt, to save 10% on my purchase.
