If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

In Europe cashiers don't pack your groceries, they just scan the stuff and handle the payment, and you pack the groceries yourself, and you better be quick because they are gonna start scanning the next customer's stuff immediately. I think this would solve many such cases.
I do like how Aldi handles checkouts.
Same thing in Canada. It sucks.
I would much rather pack my shit and get out than have to wait for the elderly/drunk/high school cashier to do everyone's groceries and then do mine too. What a fucking waste that is. Plus I always had my own bags even before they stopped giving away the plastic ones, and I don't want to have to explain to a cashier that yes everything will fit in that bag you just have to do it right.
I found the grocery packers would pack as fast as the items were scanned. I don't like packing, and I'm usually slower than the cashier, so I don't go to cashiers anymore.
Since I have to pack my own shit, I go to the self checkouts where I can pick at whatever rate I feel like.
