    WAIT. YOUR. DAMN. TURN

    I'll keep this one short and sweet.

    General SCO ettiquette is to wait until the person has left the checkout completely before you go and set up correct?

    The other day I bought some stuff and while I was paying, these two ladies thought it would be brilliant to start loading up WHILE I WAS STILL PAYING.

    I just glared at them and left. Later on when I passed the clothing shop in the same mall, one of the two ladies looked at me. I just gave her a death glare.

    Similar incidents have happened before, usually where someone else has started loading up while the other person is collecting their items.

    I've had that happen to me, too. I was able to get out quickly, which was good, because Hubs was getting ready to go off on the guy who did it (Hubs was waiting for me after checkout, as we were purchasing separately on separate SCOs). The guy unloaded his stuff on the SCO while I was still using it, then stood real close to me. It was creepy and the guy was gross and I got out of there as fast as I could.

      The only justice is when the person they're trying to hurry up goes just a little bit slower to make them wait and one or two more of the SCOs open up, but are claimed before the jumper can get to them... So he still has to wait.

        One time the smaller "belt" after the main conveyer belt wasn't working properly, so after 3-4 items the "bagging area is full" announcement trips. I leave the scanner for about two seconds to push the items down onto the bag area...and some moron starts scanning their crap before I finish. Then has the balls to act clueless when I have to call over a manager to get his stuff voided off (she was having none of his 'I didn't know' act and escorted him over to a cashier lane).

        In hindsight, I should have just started bagging everything (keeping orders separate) and let him pay for it all...but I was buying stuff for my gaming group so needed the receipt. Also I didn't feel like being that nice to an asshole.

          I usually wait until they walk off.

          1) I don't like being near others if I can avoid it. I call it 'cluster phobia' as in i hate being stuck in the middle of a cluster.

          2) I wouldn't want my purchases to jam up the works on theirs. like... if I scan my items and it starts adding on to their purchase etc.
