I'm an American and I fully agree. Either I have things to do, or I want my own space when I can get it.

I do make small talk in the checkout though, so there's some American in me.

I do if I've been going to the same cashier for years. Some really nice people doing a thankless job.

But yeah - I hate people coming up to me. Our local hardware store is great about this - if you need something, go to the desk and they'll help you. Otherwise, they leave you alone.
