HOLY CRAP! They're coming to take me away?

So, running UScan today, take a stack of coupons from one customer and start scanning, when the customer standing at the UScan directly behind me walks up behind me and says, "One of my flowers didn't ring up the right price."
J: "I'll be over as soon as I finish up these coupons, sir." and go back to scanning, ignoring guy as he walks back to his register, and suddenly, I get pinged from that register, "Customer needs assistance" No shit? I mean, I only got like two more coupons scanned in the time it took him to walk back over there, so, I let it keep 'alerting' me and kept scanning, then walked over after I finished, look at his screen, "Put in your rewards card...?" he does, it drops to the right price.

For the benefit of all of us, I avoid U scan, I refuse to do the job of a cashier of a place I don't work at, because I'm the guy that kicks them when they don't work. And from what I see here, those things are nothing but a headache if you have to do anything more than by exactly what your arms of capable of carrying without a cart

What a whiner. It's not like you're magically not busy!
I usually enjoy the self-scanners, 'cuz where I'm at the lines are heinous or no one's on register. It's also usually quicker for me when buying a candy bar and string cheese fix.
