      It’s honestly ridiculous that cashiers are ever made to stand. I have weak ankles to the point that one or the other will just give out from under me sometimes when I’m just walking down the street. When I used to go ice skating, the skates were always at a steep angle because my ankles couldn’t keep them upright. I also have really flat feet. It’s limited my job prospects a lot over the years.

        Yeah, it is very ridiculous. When I check out at the grocery store, I don’t think the cashier is an extra hard worker because they’re standing. I just think corporate is a bunch of d-bags for pointlessly making them stand.

        I refuse to use the self-checkouts because they treat you like a thief and are extremely frustrating. Will keep that rant to myself, but it’s a doozy lol.

      Where in the fuck do they force cashiers to stand? Is this some kind of American bullshit? Why would they do that.
