I work retail and biked and skated everywhere for 30 years. Also I wish we got chairs as cashiers in the US.
I dont understand why cashiers cant sit? As a customer I feel bad for them. It must be uncomfortable, they're not on guard are they.
Lazy cashiers getting to sit all day
Now, let me go to my office job where I get to sit all day
Yeah it's bullshit, IDK if it's because of cheaping out on chairs or because of sheer spiteful "sitting is basically slacking"
Customers buy more shit if the cashiers are standing
really?
There is no way thats true.
What do people get to the checkout, see if the cashier is sitting or standing, and them either go buy more stuff or put stuff back depending on what the cashier is doing.
It's a real phenomenon caused by irrational assumptions that a sitting cashier will be slower. Mostly a US thing but there is a rationale behind it if a flawed one.
