I cashiered for a few years ...

started in a convenience store, so that doesn't really count...

later on, worked for a few months in one of the 'big' groc stores. Union, so pay and bennies were quite decent for the job.
A few men there, mostly women.

then cashiered at a health-food cooperative for a couple years ... good pay, good bennies, not a bad job, considering ... it was a bit more 'yuppie' and a bit less 'granola' really.
a few men cashiers there.


It's not something I'd spend the rest of my life doing, for sure .... but it wasn't horrible, either.

What's weird is, in Germany
1. the cashiers sit down. that would drive me insane, actually. standing is better, so long as you've got a good mat.
2. there's no express lanes. really only matters to the shopper tho, i suppose.
