yeah but,

Game's over, and fuck you Jimson. It's not my fault that you guys couldn't get your shit together by deadline. No one gets access to docs because I don't fucking care anymore, I hope you all enjoyed ruining my game, and there won't be another.
When I go to the grocery store, it's mostly really early in the morning and the black lady bagging me has always been there from the stocking shift (1A.M.-8A.M. I come in around 7:00) So she is always deadassed beat, but she makes conversation and is nice. So more power to her I guess?

is a very overweight man in his 30s with three anime girls tattooed on his arms.

They were around 8 inches tall, one each on the inside and outside of his right arm, and a third on the inside of his left arm. I'm assuming he's saving up his bagging salary for a fourth to be symmetrical.

They weren't even sexy anime babes, though. Nor were they cool anime babes. They were large tattoos of goofy looking little anime children.

Look, you could quit your job anytime you wanted Tuxedo Gin!

In the old days the cashier would just scan things as quickly as they could and then they would go on another belt back to a bag boy that would bag them and there was a bag boy for every lane. Of course these days there is often just one bag boy an he will bag until they make him go wrangle carts or whatever. When the bag boy is there the checkout process is faster. Baby boomers bitch and moan when the checkout girl has to do all the bagging on her own. People my age just go and do the bagging ourselves usually while the checkout girl does the checkout stuff.

There are also self checkout places so that stores can make you do even more of their work and pocket the difference. Boomers generally refuse to use these outright (they say to preserve jobs but the real reason is that the touch screen terrifies them) and younger people will use them for smaller purchases because the boomers plug up the lines with cashiers. For larger purchases the self checkouts are a nightmare and everyone gets in line for a cashier unless the lines are really bad.

In a lot of places in Europe it was real cool a lot of the time because the money taker person just kinda stands there and stares at you while you bag your own stuff. Also the space provided is super tiny so the whole line is waiting for you to finish so the next person can start getting their items scanned.

There's a little table provided a few feet away sometimes but if I could easily pick up and carry everything over to the table I wouldn't need it bagged in the first place.

Just another reason it's better in the :911:

The grocery store I go to most of the time has a cashier but you gotta bag your own groceries. They even have 2 conveyor belts on the other side of the cashier so they can start checking the next person while the previous customer is still bagging their groceries.

I like it because I don't have to worry about some dumbass trying to put the bread in the same bag as canned goods and what not.

The poor people grocery I used to go to in Vegas to get turkey thighs and the good frozen burritos was like that. There was this wooden toggle thing that would decide which of the two destinations the groceries went to.
