The only reason I'm not posting about this over there is because I know I've bitched about it before, but someday I may write a book about my experiences working in a grocery store.
You're in the grocery store, and you get in line at a register to be rang up. There is someone in front of you who already has an order on the conveyor belt. What do you do before you put your stuff on the belt?
A) Absolutely nothing.
B) Put a divider up.
If you selected A, you're an idiot. Why? Because the cashier--being too busy paying attention to what he/she is ringing up for the previous order--will not know where the current order ends and yours begins. If he/she ends up ringing up your order with the previous order, it's your damn fault for not putting a divider up between the orders.
If you selected B, you're smart! I can't get mad at you because you did the right thing!
Dividers--they're there for a reason. USE THEM!
