    No one who makes the rules at my job has ever actually worked it, and it’s frustrating.

    So I grocery shop for people. We have an app that shows us the current item on the list, and we have to scan it to move onto the next item. In theory it takes us through the store in a nice streamlined order.

    But the system isn’t perfect and sometimes the order makes no sense. I like to look over the list and make sure I grab things I’ll need to scan later.

    Sometimes customers block a product and won’t get out of your way. I like to see what’s next on the list and grab that instead of doing nothing while I wait for the customers to move.

    Sometimes I realize that I don’t have meat or produce bags on my cart and have to grab some, so I check the list to see how many I’ll need.

    They just announced they’re getting rid of the list.

    Every time they change something, my numbers tank. I don’t know if I’m recovering from this one.
