A couple of weeks ago I signed up for a Meijer cc. You get 10% off the first purchase so I was saving that bad boy. Tuesday I went in to buy my groceries, a couple of random items, and some stock up items. The cashier was slow as molasses. Then I hand her the 10% and she asks what it is. I tell her and she continues the check out. I'm looking at the reciept and questioning the 10% which she swears came off. Finally she tells me to go to customer service.
CS verifies she is new and screwed up. To get the 10% they need to return everything then rescan it. PITA, but you know how I am with my grocery budget. Then they gave me a $5 gc for my troubles.
Today I go back for some odds and ends. I scan to make sure I don't get the same cashier. She's nowhere to be seen and the one I pick is cruisning along. She rings up 2 of my items and someone comes to give her a break. Guess who?
She's slow again and I notice that my cucumber has rung up as a red onion. She tries to say it's okay. No, a cucumber is 50 cents a red onion $1.01. "I rang in the number on it." LADY YOU ARE HOLDING A CUCUMBER IN YOUR HAND. IT LOOKS NOTHING LIKE A RED ONION!
Then she has issues ringing out the $5 gc. She asks if it has a different amount on it "No. It's the $5 gift card they gave me because YOU screwed up my order 3 days ago." Yes, I did say that.

Hee. Go 6!
I've had her screw up formula checks at least two times. (So glad we're done with formula!) And my entire order had to be rerung both times.
I'm jealous that cucumbers are only 50 cents where you live.

Yet somehow I always end up in her line. Maybe that means she's fast because her line always looks shortest? IDK. Usually when I remember to look at the cashier to avoid her, the other lines are too long for it to be worth using them instead.
I hope you don't get a bad reputation around Meijer, 6.
s/o small talk... Sunday morning I had to pick up a cake from the Kroger bakery. Our church was doing a little reception after church congratulating the choir director on finishing his PhD. They couldn't ring me out at the bakery counter so I had to go through a regular line. The checker read the cake aloud "Congratulations...Dr. Brown." Then she looked at me with a puzzled face and said "I don't know Dr. Brown" as if this was a problem. I mean, how can there be a cake going out the door for somene she doesn't know!?!?
I just a friendly gal looking for options.
i would be annoyed about this, and i'd probably complain.
i know this is really rude of me to say, but FFS is being a cashier really that complicated? even seasoned cashiers have their issues and i just do NOT understand.

Bacon powder story: Guy asked me where to find bacon powder. I thought for a long time and then told him that I had never seen bacon powder in the store, but what did he need it for because maybe he could just grind up some bacon bits (keep in mind I was 17) and then pointed him to the salad dressing aisle.
He looked at me very puzzled and said, "Ummmm, why don't you just tell me where the flour and the sugar is because I'm sure bakin' powder is with the other bakin' stuff."
