Description
Those spinny bag carousels fill my mind with two gorey visions of death. This is one of them. Customers, please don't haul off and give the carousel a whirl while the cashier is bagging your stuff for you. Unless they really suck. Then they deserve to have their arms reduiced to bloody stumps. But you didn't hear that from me
Hopefully more to follow. I have a thousand of these in my head, vying for the spotlight.

Yup! Spinning bag racks so we could bag merchandise at the speed of light.
I really wish there was a plastic bag fee in the US. As a cashier, I used to get so depressed at how many bags people would use. Some people would demand that I double- and triple-bag what could have safely been held in one bag! The waste was just overwhelming...

Sounds scary.
Double- and triple-bag?! What on earth do they think they're doing? Are they going to suffocate zombies on their way home or something? O_o
Our plastic bags costs from 10 cents to 25 cents and some people are so annoyed that they have to pay for those. "You know girl, in America..."
"I know, sir. But we're in Finland." *bright smile*

down here many big stores have their own cloth bags, which you have to buy... but many prefer to pay for plastic bags since they're dirt cheap, so the whole thing is more or less pointless.

XD I always found those things weird. Like, very weird. Maybe it's cause we don't use those things here in Mexico and have someone bag things for us.

Only a few companies in the US use them, but they scare the heck outta me!

A-FREAKIN-BLOODY-MEN! 
I nearly died when I first saw this. I knew what it was right away. It was a wonderful day when we first got those spinning suckers but I'd be lying if I didn't admit that there were at least three customers a day that tried to take my arms off with those things.

:comforts you: it's okay... I got bitched out by parents frequently at my job 
I do this thing I like the call "fishing"
The kids walk by and I say to them "Hi there! would you like a balloon?"
So the kid runs up and says "YEA!"
"What kind of balloon would you like?"
"a doggie!"
"what color doggie?"
"a blue one!"
by this time the mother/father/parental unit/person-in-charge-of-the-midget has arrived so I look up to him/her and say nicely
"the balloons are $1, is that alright?"
usually the parents groan because they know their choices
A.) Save $1, and walk around with a child screaming and crying about how they didnt get a balloon
B.) Spend $1 and keep the kid happy for quite a while
usually they just groan and say "okay" or even SMILE! :GASP: @_@ but this one lady let her rip.....
"A DOLLAR!? No! I'm not going to pay a dollar for that! It's just a piece of plastic filled with air!!" She spat
"Ma'am, this is a hand-made piece of art that is made-to-order." I replied
"How dare you reply to me like that! You rude little girl!" She huffed getting angrier by the second
"Ma'am, if you do not want to purchase a balloon please step out of the line so that I may help the other people in line who would like balloons." I replied going into damage control
"Well I cant very well not get one now! That would make me look cheap!"
"Well ma'am, please decide whether you would like to buy one or not so I can continue to serve other customers."
She continued to rant and I told her my manager was right inside if she wished to speak with her. So she went inside and ranted to Pat (my manager) and then left with a huff and pat came out and was like "what did you do!?"
"I told her they were a dollar... apparently that was a bad idea...." - me
"Apparently it was!" - Pat

Wow. Your job sounds just as much fun as my job is sometimes. Ah people...who make more money then us don't think about us. Because one day, they'll be in our positions and us in theirs! Bwahahahaha!

Aww...now I feel bad for liking to spin those things...not while cashiers are trying to bag things, of course, but still...Then again, I guess it's OK to spin them if no one's going to lose limbs for it. Never mind...

XD Pfft, how awful! If that happened to me, I would shove my bloody stumps up their ass!

I AGREE!!! Namely, because I am one of those poor cashiers that gets those carosels whipped around while I'm bagging items. At least some customers are nice, and ask if they can take bags off or not (because, believe it or not, we do care about your items), since we sort your items into different bags, raw meat together, frozen together, chemicals together, etc...
Though, I will admit, the comic did give me a laugh
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
lol, exactly! And even if the customer is awful we (as cashiers) want to make sure they have everything. Because otherwise, they come back (bleah) AND they're pissy (nuuuuu!)
We need cashiering support groups
