    They used to have a mute button on the self checkout but they took it off. Bastards

      Same with gas pumps that blast commercials. Used to be able to disable it by pressing certain buttons. Not anymore.

      Speaking as someone who works in retail, that’s probably because of fucking idiots who don’t know how to turn up the volume and then complained that it wasn’t making any sound.

        Fair, but they also could just make it re-enable the sound when a new checkout starts.

          That would cost the company money. We wouldn’t want the executives to make LESS than $20m this year, would we? The horror! The HORROR!!
