I think that is a fairly common attitude, where the hell are kids going to get any experience if they keep eliminating the jobs. Both my kids worked in the supermarkets when they were teenagers, it didn't take them long to find better jobs but checkout/mcdonalds was almost a right of passage.
Going further back, I worked as a bowser boy, pumping petrol, another kids job that has disappeared.

Show me a supermarket that have any of these dividers and I will prove you how well I have been raised...

It's not very super if they don't have dividers.

I always do it... when there are available dividers. More often than not they had been lost ages ago and never replaced.

I was thinking more along the lines of emptying it without getting it all over ones self.

From the description...

Is that what one really looks for in a wine glass?

Nope. That means you have to share.

I went to my amazon account today and it would not accept my password.
It forced me to reset. It is linked to my email (two-factor) so if someone else had reset it then I believe amazon would've sent me an email as the hacker tried to reset so I don't know how this would be possible.
Also, the account looks fine -- no other problems.
Hmmm...
The only way I could get in was to reset my password -- it never would take my original password.
Anyone else heard of this problem or had it themselves?
EDIT
Found some people (various recent posts) having various odd problems signing into Amazon also:

Thanks for chiming in and letting me know.
It was a bit disconcerting.

Probably some innocuous password expiry rule, number of days, inactive too long...
Less likely they [suspect] they were hacked,
but on that knowing a lot of people use the same password everywhere perhaps they are forcing this because of other companies that did have data stolen.

It could be some number of days expiry thing. Since I have a Kindle Fire I use my account every day.
Thanks for chiming in with possible ideas though. I appreciate it.
