Just got my groceries at Food Shoppers Warehouse. When I put my groceries on the belt I put them out in groups, ie all of my cold stuff together, all cans together, etc so that they are bagged in a logical order.
Well I got in the shortest line, it was a tall lanky boy that was trying to grow a beard, you know 3 long hairs sticking out of his chin. It took me about 10 minutes to get to the belt even though there was only one person ahead of me. Meanwhile the guy that chose the next lane over the same time I chose mine was on his way out to his car and he had 3 people ahead of him. Well shaggy (lets call him that cause he looked like shaggy from scooby doo) starts searching through my items on the belt. He picks up my loaf of bread, puts it in the bottom of a bag and then picks up three cans of diced tomatoes and puts them in the bag with my bread...HELLO McFLY!. A bit later he picks up a hot bag of fried chicken and puts it in with my ice cream...HELLO McFLY.
I worked at a grocery store when I was in college and know how much it sucks, but come on. I always thought I was doing the baggers a favor by putting all my like foods together on the belt. I think I liked the self checkout at Superfresh better.

The economy must be hurting Giant, because the current crop of employees are not applying the lessons I was taught, so I can only assume they don't get any training.
he bags when we check-out while I make sure my 50 cent cucumber isn't rung up as a 4 dollar green pepper. He won't even let the bagger attempt to smash our bread. 
tells 'em that he would rather do it.
I have always separated my groceries when checking out.
Damn machines.
