This is 100% the reason I use self checkout. I really can't stand my groceries being bagged in a way that essentially guarantees that something is going to be smashed, ripped, or spilled. Or that the paper bag is going to rip itself to shreds as I try to carry it in.
I most recently had a guy shove way more heavy shit into a paper bag than was even remotely reasonable and then tell me, "you gotta grab it from the bottom, the handles always rip off." And I'm just standing there thinking to myself that I almost never have handles rip off the bags when I bag it myself. Which means that this guy is consistently overloading the bags every single time, causing the handles to rip off.
I don't particularly mind if you're going to stuff the bag full, but double bag it for fuck's sake. You're making minimum wage or near to it - you're not getting a goddamn bonus if you use fewer bags to help the store's bottom line.
