A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Fucking. Exactly. Tap is awesome. It's fast, it works, but just fucking standardize where it's at!
But until then, as someone who works a register, people, please, look at the machines and see if there is a very clear label on it saying TAP HERE. I don't know how every customer misses it, but they do.
People miss it because the sheer amount of extra crap that stores put in checkout lines had trained us to stop trying to read everything while we're there. Also we're watching for the total, not reading the text NOT on the screen
We miss the sign because we're used to tapping at our normal store a certain way and your way is different. Our normal store doesn't need a sign because it's obvious.
I'm guessing your terminal uses the "tap the corner" method and not the screen method. If I see a sign, it's often the corner. I've never seen a sign that points to the screen.
My local bodeguero says "okay, that'll be $12, and tap on the very top when the total appears".
His machine doesn't even beg for tips either -- they pay their people enough.
