> In some of those cases, I've just left my groceries there at the machine and walked out the store. I tell myself "That'll show 'em, they'll have to put all that stuff back on the shelf!" But it obviously doesn't show them anything: they never fix the broken parts of the self-checkout and I end up having to return to that supermarket (or another) for the reason that brought me into the store in the first place.
That's because corporate headquarters doesn't track how often stuff gets left where it doesn't belong, and the individuals employees have no way to make feature requests or report bugs that aren't severe. (I can report that the system chokes if a guest tries to pay with card, but I can't report that I have to kill the app every so often because it won't let me backstock(there's like 5 different ways it breaks backstocking))
