JUST ANOTHER POINT OF VIEW Portland!PAGE B10 PortlandTribune LifeTUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 2014 Checkers: Naughty or nice? ou’d think, at the ripe old age of 66, I couldn’t learn too Ymany new things, but last week I did. I learned a rule about bag- ging groceries that I’d never heard before. Now, before we get started, I need to issue some disclaimers. First of all, this happened to (and was told to me by) the oth- er person who lives at our house — who must remain nameless, in order for me not to be stabbed to death with a butcher knife in my sleep. Secondly, the supermarket where it happened must remain nameless because the last time I mentioned a specifi c store name on this page of the news- paper I got in trouble with the people upstairs who issue and sign my paychecks. (For the re- cord, though, it is a different company.) OK, with all that understood, we return now to the “incident,” in which the aforementioned shopper (let’s call her “Person A”) set a modest assortment of grocery items on the conveyor belt, along with one of those re- th usable grocery bags that you PAMPLIN MEDIA GROUP PHOTOS: CHASE ALLGOOD bring from home, and proceed- ed to the little shelf where obe- dient shoppers stand to write 16 checks, dispense coupons, etc. The fi rst thing the checker checked and put in the bag was some peaches.

In my vast experience of buy- ing things, paying for things, and even helping bag things (at some markets), I’d never heard of anyone doing their bagging simply in response to what comes down the belt and when. Often, what you see happen is the checkout professional, having done this a lot more than you or I have, will set things aside, knowing this might go in the bag later, some- thing else might go in sooner — you know, using common sense. There was no room in this person’s method for common sense. As Person A stared at her checker, wondering what might become of this standoff that seemed to be building up, the checker could do nothing but stare back. Finally, exasperated, the checker asked with a great deal of attitude in her voice, “Well, do you want me to rebag everything?” Now, this is where Person A and I are extremely different.
