Whats the problem with being a cashier?

Dealing with pissy customers all day. Standing in spot for hours on end.
Touching the money that comes from people's filthy hands.
Take your pick.
pretty much that covers it.
People are generally jerks, you are stuck in one spot all day/night, the people in charge of cashiers are always the biggest morons on the planet and when there is downtime you will find yourself doing incredibly stupid things to make it look like your busy.
I was a cashier for about 6 months. I started out when I was 15 as the bottle return dude. It was manual then, no machines. It was a nightmare, every scumbag would come in with dirty beer and soda bottles and cans and just throw them at me and stand around giving me grief while I counted them all and printed reciepts.
I ended up working in the meat department and then settled in at a new store in the produce department for almost 7 years.
In those spots of a store you are always active and there is always something to do and the time goes by quick. I couldnt find a job in my field at that time, when I graduated and almost took a job as a produce manager of a new store when it opened up. I made the mistake of talking about it with a friend where I worked and someone overheard us and I went from having the job to getting no returned calls only to find out the guy I worked for jumped in and got his girlfriend hired!!!!
It was one of the greatest things to ever happen to me, if that had not happened i would probably still have that job and would be stuck living somewhere I dont want to be....!!!! thank god for that nosey backstabbing ******* I worked for!!!!!!:laugh2:
anyway umm, yeah being a cashier is no fun, long days with miserable people....
