They say the disabled will always have the option of full service, but if they do, it costs a whole lot more. (And a whole lot more than it costs here.)

They are not called to account for their incompetence. It could all be clear and easy. I think the reason is that this task is shuffled off to who knows who.

My biggest issue with the grocery store things is that they don't have a simple provision to cope with the fact that I want to use my own bags - so I don't use them, even if the lines are long and I'm in a hurry - because really, no one should be in THAT much of a hurry.
