To The Bookstore We Will Go

“Ka-ching, ka-ching!” goes the cash register. All roads lead to bookstores these days, now that classes have started on this side of the planet. I’m sure POS systems guys are on stand-by just in case a machine breaks down.

One of the things I don’t particularly like when I go to stores during times when there is a crowd is to see empty cash register stations and long lines where there is a cashier. That goes true to fast-food joints with long lines and only one or two functioning cash registers. That goes to banks too, where there are only 2 tellers with 40+ people waiting to be served.

Of course, I understand why some establishments don’t have fully functioning cashier stations since these establishments are not always full of people and it’s not practical to have people manning these cashier stations when there are no customers around.

Best thing to do to avoid these problems? Go when there’s no crowd.
