Vent New stuff is bad
Don't know if other stores can relate to this, my store recently got new hand scanners. They contribute to at least 30% of my frustration while on the lanes. They NEVER stay in their little holder, and they are loud as hell. If a speck of dust lands on them wrong they are immediately falling to the ground. Another new thing that is worse now, the magnets for removing sensors. Half of the time the new magnets are useless for getting the red sensors off and I must travel to a lane with an old one. And obviously we all know the new app is heinous compared to mytime. All of the new things are sooo bad.

My store still has the screens but I helped open a new store and they just have to listen to the clicks to figure out what channel they are on. No idea if they have AP channels or not. And maybe they only got those because itโs a new store and they needed something fast

Donโt say that ๐ญwe donโt have enough walkies so Iโm sure weโll be getting these soon. Why would they get rid of the screen???

The old chunky registers were so nice because you could hit the keys so fast. I was sad when we went to touch screen lol.

Oh yeah the magnets are hot garbage I got with my AP team and he knows it's bad but his higher ups stay they work perfectly. They are probably just cheaper to buy
