What is so bloody difficult about opening additional checkout lanes? Why would a store bother to build 40 of the damn things if they are never going to staff more than two of them? I swear, everytime I go to the mega-super-wal-target-mart, I end up waiting for ages to get through the checkout. It's my "sheep of the day" issue-we all stand around blah-ing at each other, wondering how long it's going to take before the manager gets out of his coffee-donut-bathroom break and notices there are about sixty people all with cartloads of stuff awaiting to make his bottom line look better for this fiscal quarter. The people who staff this place and don't notice deserve to be slammed down on the checkout (there are 38 open for the act!) and have a cart full of groceries dropped on their heads.
