• Unpack your shopping basket
• Don’t talk about religion, peoples sexual preference or politics
• Don’t tell racist or sexist jokes
• Wash your re-useable bags regularly
• If you can’t fit a box of cereal in your “re-useable” bags dont bring them to the supermarket, theyre too small
• Don’t yell at the staff
• Don’t throw a tantrum like a 5 year old when you dont get your way
• Don’t try to get someone fired because you didn’t get your way
• If you dont want an item dont just stuff it anywhere, ESPECIALLY REFRIGERATED ITEMS either put it back or give it to the staff
• Don’t eat or open anything unless you’ve paid for it
• Don’t let your kids eat or open anything unless you’ve paid for it
• Don’t let your kids climb the shelves or displays
• Get off your fucking phone when the cashier is trying to serve you
• Listen to what the staff are saying to you - like when to swipe your card, what the sale applies to ect.
• READ the product ticket and sale signs, They tell you everything you need to know. Yes they can be confusing sometimes, ask the staff if you need help. Don’t throw a hissy fit at the register because you read the sign wrong.
• Saying please and thank you won’t go astray. Manners are free. If you’re polite staff are 203% more likely to want to help you and go out of their way for you
• Don’t expect the staff to read your mind, tell them what you want/need
• If you’re having a bad day don’t take it out on the staff, if you’re in that much of a shitty mood do everyone a favour and stay home.
• Standard plastic bags stores use to pack your items are not designed to be reused, don’t bring them back in to be used. If you want re-useable bags buy them.
• Shopping trolleys and baskets are not rubbish bins
• Shelves are not rubbish bins
• Change rooms are not toilets
• If an item doesnt scan it’s not free. Don’t make that joke. please.
• Staff make mistakes, they are human
• Show your ID when requested, don’t make a huge deal out of it. It’s the law and store policy, if you want service it’s required.
• If you want to return an item BRING BOTH THE ITEM AND THE RECIEPT, most stores require a reciept for a return and they certainly aren’t going to give you a refund if you didn’t bring the item with you.
• Don’t make an ass of yourself when they won’t refund an item due to policy or having no reciept.
• Staff will get fired for not adhearing to policy, their job is more important than breaking the rules for you. If you have a genuine issue with the policy speak to the manager.
• Don’t be an asshole.
  
• Don’t go shopping if you’re sick, not only can you make other customers sick but you can make the staff sick. Many staff can not afford to have the time off work if they get sick, have consideration for how your actions affect others.
  
• DO NOT LICK YOUR FINGERS before handing the cashier money or cards, not only is this disgusting its increadibly unhygienic.
• Do not go to a store and expect the staff to be your personal shoppers for 20+ minutes, they have other work they need to do before the end of their shift and most can’t spend that much time with just one customer. HOWEVER if you have a disability and need genuine assistance doing your shopping and are unable to have a carer or family/ friend help you, call the store ahead of time as some stores can make arrangements to have a staff member assist you for a period of time.
• Do not eat fruit or vegetables before you have paid for them. Almost all produce items are sold by weight and so alters the price. While the price may only be different by a few cents, but having many customers do it can put the sales out buy hundereds of dollars meaning the store will cut hours and a staff member will lose their shifts. It is very unhygeinic for the cashier to be handling a half eaten fruit, and this is also considered stealing, do you really want to be arrested over 35 cents?
• Children under the age of 9 should be supervised at all times! I cannot tell you how many times we’ve caught unsupervised childeren wandering around the store, climbing shelves, eating the lollies and playing with the toys (in general destroying merchandise). If the child were to wander out of the store, be abducted or injure themselves you would be the first to complain. It is not the staff’s job to watch them, it is your responsibility and quite frankly bad parenting.
  
• The staff are NOT babysitters, DO NOT leave your children with them.
• Registers, counters and dining tables are NOT change tables, if your child needs a nappy/diaper change do it in the restrooms, also dispose of the nappy/diaper in the appropriate bin, don’t leave it around the store for staff to clean up.
• Please don’t start to unpack your groceries while the customer ahead of you stil hasn’t finished unpacking theirs
• USE THE DIVIDERS! Dividers are there so the cashier can distinguish between your purchase and another customers purchase, by not using one all you are doing is causing confusion and slowing things down.
• Don’t leave the checkout before the cashier has finished counting your money or your card transaction has been approved. If something has gone wrong with the payment (i.e card declined or money given was short) not only will the cashier get in trouble but if you can’t be found you could be charged with theft.
• If you’re planning on doing your shopping late in the day it is a good idea to call the store ahead of time to see what time they close DONT come to a store within 10 minutes of closing time. Just dont.
• When it is announced that the store is closing within X minutes it means you have X minutes to have paid for your shopping and left the store, NOT that you have X minutes to keep shopping and then meander down to the checkout when you feel ready. I can’t speak for all stores but at mine i don’t get paid past closing time and if you think i am hanging around and working for free you are sorely mistaken.
• If the store needs to be evacuated for whatever reason, do what you are told and leave the store.
  
• Don’t be an asshole. (This is here twice because i cannot stress this point enough)

Cashiering is alot like being an NPC. You have a fixed set of dialogue prompts for every transaction which customers try to skip over as rapidly as possible.
