The weight sensor is what drives me nuts.

- Bought a light item and the weight sensor didn't detect it? Wait for attendant.

- Scanning too quickly since you want to be out of there within the next hour and there is a line building up? Wait for attendant.

- Moved a bag off the weight sensor because you need more than two bags to fit your stuff in? Wait for attendant.

- Scanned an item and put it back in your cart because it makes no sense to put that large of an item on the tiny bagging area? Hit "I don't want to bag this item" and wait for attendant.

- You seem to be triggering "wait for attendant" too much, so wait for attendant to put in a passcode to tell the system that you are doing everything right.
