LOL
I have one currently with a 22 register front line and just 1 is out, they are complaining like it is killing them. They never open all the lanes, never.
they probably don't have 22 employees in the whole store, total. retail is running pretty thin these days...
the home dipsnits near where i live have TWO stations open... one with 4 scanners, overseen by one rocket scientist,
and one for the "contractor" check out, that is anything but.
did i mention that i really don't like home dipsnits, and will go to any length to avoid shopping there?
i still think that using the draw string to loosen up the wire would be a good solution,
but power poles are looking pretty spiffy as well..... i suspect you won't talk them into that however...
