Samesies! My partner isn’t vegan, so whenever I’m buying food for him, I just so happen to pull it a bit too quick over the self-checkout scanner so I guess it doesn’t scan, oops 🥺
in the UK they weigh the baggage area and if you don’t scan something it’ll shout “UNEXPECTED ITEM IN THE BAGGAGE AREA” as loud as the mf beep and you get publicly shamed by all the whiter than white old people.
anyone who puts bags outside the weighing area gets looked at too, there’s no real way round without going for the old pockets
Interesting. Where are the weighs? Do you HAVE to out your bag on a special place?
I wonder we don’t have that yet too.
But then again, overworked and understaffed. Noone cares if anything beeps or not. Even if the door-alarms go off, nothing happens. In no store, ever. It’s just that the vast majority of Germans are so obedient, they instantly stop, go to the next employee and explain themselves.
They beep so fucking loud here, this would not fly well with a cashier (or can) that watches well 😁
But we came up with different ways to do it over time. And yes, self checkout mostly, but we also do it at register if we have to.
The most brazen one was a whole fucking door we drove by the cashier while my wife distracted him with questions and her charme 😁
We should not be proud of that, but we are. We probably wouldn’t even have noticed the price hikes. But I absolutely despise that they force you to pay more for things you can’t boycott. I can just not buy a car, but I can’t not buy food to protest.
Fucking greed.
might work, but that’s a bit of overkill. I prefer sleigh-of-hand or simply not scanning many things. People are already overworked and understaffed, noone’s gonna check anyway. The cameras are just scare-tactics too.
Yeah, we still laugh about that. “How the fuck did we manage to loose a fucking door? Noone just goes out here with a door for fucks sake. Count again!” 😊
…while we paid for the hinges 😁
Sometime it’s really simple: if you just do it as if you’re allowed to do it, noone questions it.
Like going right into spaces you’re not supposed to go, if you’re wearing something orange, a screwdriver or whatever else and just fucking go there as if you own the place.
The places I’ve been to without ever been questioned, including ceos offices or treasuries or…just because suit and laptop in hand. I was actually allowed but I was never ever questioned or stopped. Might be my nasty resting bitch face, I dunno 😁

Bluetooth speaker in your pocket and a beep sound on your partner’s phone.

Sorry, a door?! That’s impressive.
Accountant: “How the fuck do we have shrinkage on a door!?”
Yeah, we still laugh about that. “How the fuck did we manage to loose a fucking door? Noone just goes out here with a door for fucks sake. Count again!” 😊
