Why are the shortest check-out lines always the ones held up by an SC?

...WHY DO YOU TEMPT WHAT LITTLE FAITH IN HUMANITY I HAVE!?! -- Kalga
And I want a pony for Christmas but neither of us is getting what we want OK! What you are asking is impossible. -- Wicked Lexi

I've had times where I haven't been sure if something has rung up right but it's only a few dollars and there are people behind me in the line I usually don't bother getting it checked. A few bucks is not worth holding up a stack of people and causing hold ups for the staff. But then again, I worked retail so I have sympathy for the staff.

You do occasionally get stuck behind some idiot who doesn't know how to use it, though. I found it pretty self-explanatory, me. Go figure.
And katie kaboom, there was indeed a talking Coke machine at my local Fred Meyer's (part of Kroger's) about ten years ago (shee-it, has it been that long?!) - it'd shill the product (REALLY LOUDLY) and when you bought something it'd thank you (AGAIN REALLY LOUDLY) at about three or four times the volume used by the self-checkouts. I think it made very little money - most of us don't like being yelled at by piles of metal and plastic - and it was removed after a few weeks.Civilized men tend to be ruder than savages because they know they can be impolite without getting their skulls split, as a rule.
