The ones at Costco seem pretty serious. They want to count the total items sold and how many you have. At Walmart all I’ve ever gotten is “uh… it’s fine” probably because it’s too much trouble.
One Napoleon Dynamite-looking cuntbag gave me trouble at Costco one time because he couldn’t fucking count… I had my items on my own dolly vs a cart, which seemed to make him think I was an indigent shoplifter (really I was walking to my house 2 blocks away). He counted … 11!! Receipt says 10!! Okay, so which item did the clerk miss? He counted again… 9!! Uh, okay, am I missing something? He counted again… 11!! Then he found an item he missed and said , oh, that explains it (? Isn’t that 12?) Just turned to someone else and went on like nothing happened.
I don't so much mind it at the membership stores because it's part of the membership.
But my local Walmart recently hired some new woman for it. Most others just glance at it an say "you're good" to every 10th person but this one takes your recipt and checks every item in every bag, and does this to every person and then freaks out if people walk past the line. It's bad enough there was a whole thing on the town facebook page with hundreds of people complaining about it.
The most recent time I tried to ignore her and keep walking but a traffic jam stopped me and this bitch walks up and grabs the cart and starts reaching for my recipt.
