为什么说超市的自动结账机是最神烦的东西

在英国的大家都用过这个东东对吧,按说你觉得这玩意儿的作用是提高超市结账的速度……

This is the latest revolution in shopping...

但是说真的,这玩意儿是超市里最神烦的东西!

We know this. And what do you we use despite all of these deep frustrations? The self-service checkout.

首先,自助结账机的队伍永远比人工的长老多……

Because these tills save you so much time...

尤其是有些熊孩子不遵守“少于10样东西才能用自助结账”的规则,所以你就看着他们推着满满一车东西过去了……

Especially when the person in front of you has decided to forget about the "ten items or less" rule.

对于那些没条形码的玩意儿,鬼知道叫神马啊!每次这时候我就想,MD我直接顺走算了!(你们有过吧别不承认!)

You get to the checkout, but your item doesn't have a barcode. You have to find it on here now.

如果买的东西特别轻,轻到结账机无法感受它的重量,那你就等着听“Please place the item in the bagging area”吧……

Bought something light? Great. It is too light for the scales to notice that it is there at all.

我TMD真的放了!!

20 Reasons Why Self-Service Checkouts Are Just The Worst

哪怕你只是拿手压了一下“Bagging Area”,那就是这段话^

如果你买酒精饮料,哪怕是一听啤酒……请静候……

And if you're buying any alcohol? No problem at all.

每次你等员工过来的时候,这个灯就会一直闪啊闪啊闪啊闪啊闪啊闪啊闪啊闪啊……

The 'TRAFFIC LIGHT OF DOOM' will go off...

不管是按不对、看不懂、称不出……只要有一点儿问题,它就会一直闪啊闪啊闪啊闪啊闪啊闪啊闪啊闪啊……狗眼都瞎了……直到忙得四脚朝天的工作人员帮你把问题解决掉……

GUESS WHAT HAPPENS NEXT EVERYONE...

如果你认为这已经够糟糕了,图样图森破了吧?NOOOOOOOO!机器的语音才是最可怕的:

Thank you for using self checkout 哔

Place the item in the bagging area 哔

Unexpected item in the bagging area 哔

Please wait for assistance 哔

Select payment type 哔

Have you swiped your club card 哔

Insert cash or touch pay with card 哔

Please take your items 哔

哔哔哔哔哔哔哔哔哔哔哔哔哔哔……我擦我要疯了好么!

直到有一天我看到了这条推:

It's only after nine months of using them that you find the mute button (it's at the bottom btw).

我擦竟然是可以静音的嘛!!整个世界都清静了好么!!

这机器另外一个问题是,比如买俩减价这种优惠,只有在点了finish之后才能算出来……甚至有时候都算不出来……

The till also likes to only deduct special offers at the end of your transaction, just before you pay.

一切问题解决,终于可以交钱了……纸币太皱不收我还可以理解(50镑大票甭想了……英国人都没见过这么大的钱……),但是某些超市收钢锛儿的口长成这样也太反人类了吧?!请问我积攒的陈年1p2p只能用来砸人了么啊喂!

如果是拿卡结账,你还是好好记住你的pin码更不要输错,要么这机器会当着所有人大吼一句:

And if you pay by card and you forget your pin, or you take out your debit card half a second before you technically should, the machine shouts out in front of the whole store...

我屮艸芔茻这很丢人的好么!!!

等好不容易你把你买的东西塞到塑料袋里以后,你发现人工结账其实比你想的快多了……

The thing is, we shouldn't have to settle with the machines the whole time. There are often store assistants available on other tills. It takes no more time.

而且还不用体会后面排队的人对你翻白眼……

于是你不禁怀疑,这到底是方便消费者还是纯粹为了节省人力啊啊啊啊啊啊啊……
