The best way to slow them down 👀🤫

That's one step in qualifying for german citizenship. Knowing how to slow the cashier to have time to actually bag your groceries.

As a germany cashier, I can confirm. Things without a barcode are a speed killer.

I worked at ALDI and LIDL in Germany and, at least at ALDI, we need to get a number of items scanned per hour. If not the management will have a talk with you. It is very hard to keep the balance. But I can cornfirm PLU items will slow you down, especially when you have to enter many different items. Also they sometimes test you with a "test costumer", who will hide products, place two different products in one bag and more, only to test your accuracy. You will have a problem when you failed twice.

European here. Whenever I go back to Northern Europe I feel I’m in a race to to place the items on the belt and bag them at the same time. My American husband stands there in confusion as to why I’m in such a damn hurry. There should be a special event for this in the olympics.

You need to strategically place bakery items and fruit throughout everything you buy. Every time there is a pause you can catch up on bagging items.

Finally, he figured out the German grocery shoppers trick!

That’s why i love Netto‘s self checkout. A cure to my anxiety and the cashier is probably happy to have to deal with one person less

Liam's little smile always looks like an assassin spotting his target.

Bring your own product the shop doesn't offer and let them deal with it while you bag your groceries.

German here... Always put buns/bagels/bread roll at the end. Also at the end, put all fruits/vegetables which need to get weighed. This slows them down as well :-)
Or just go to Edeka :D

I was recently in Germany, I found the cashier's speed perfectly normal, compared to the speed in my country.
During the trip, I almost lost it when I asked a DB conductor if he spoke English and he responded exactly like Liam's character: "just a little bit" 😂

I remember when we visited germany that they actually did scan them on a speed of like its life death game, but it didnt bother me because Finlands cashiers do the kinda same thing. And the funniest thing is that in lidl they need to type it on their own so its always hilarious to watch them try to figure the item out like a seed bagel

[papaemeritusnema]

And then there are the boss-level cashiers. Those who know all the numbers and names of the items instantly and type them in light speed :D
Then you have to begin to load your items on top of each other, so they have it more difficult to grab them haha

[sven]

Also sort the items already in the right order to pack them in your bag 😉

[E-plunksna]

I like the part when you don't take it personal and just cherrfully react to the way he doesn't react to your Hallo 😄 and I love the smirk in the end!

[Tina_Vienna]

Always take someone with you. One puts groceries quick in cart, while the other gets ready to pay!😂

As a German, I did a 4 week work placement in a supermarket and worked my 1st week as a cashier. This shit was uncomfortable af. People don't apply etiquettes (scannable codes) on their bags because they didn't weigh this shit and then they look at you furiously because you don't fucking pull the number out of your ass root. So you basically look through the big ass book and can't find the stupid number and you finally make a call to the office in the supermarket where they tell you the number. Some mfs also have tons of discount codes and look at you with this goblin grin while a 10m row is waiting behind them. Other mfs want cashback and you have to sign this shit and it's a ton of paper work sometimes. Old people are getting so mad for no reason. They don't have to fucking work anymore and can't weigh stuff and expect you to be Lightning McQueen. It's a job that makes you feel stupid af sometimes. Experienced lots of unfriendly customers at the info gate.
Employees making sexual comments about big booty mommas while being a father as he told me. Some people there are weird af and you experience funny shit. A homeless guy basically emptied a hole palette of water to convert it into deposit money (0, 25€/bottle).

Hood language I know. It just triggered my summer trauma from last year.

[vongsokmony]

I love that little tiny smirk in the end so

[TimZoet]

Bro I am addicted to your shorts. That German smile with the music, every time, it's amazing. Gimme more
