"The time it takes for you to get your cheap plastic bags out and sort them out, (they don't sit properly so it takes you longer) you take a while to put the first couple of items in each bag, you ask me to scan and pass you certain items from the belt while the side has lots of items waiting for you to bag.

The employee added that another way to save time is for shoppers to get their bags and any coupons they want to use out while in the queue, instead of trying to find them when in the packing area.
A faster checkout, they added, would be "safer" for everyone during the pandemic.

Headaches may have been a particular problem this year .

Neuroscientist Amanda Ellis helps you get to the root of the problem and find some release as stress and a change in routine causes even more problems
What's causing your headaches and how stopping them means understanding them
Headaches may have been a particular problem this year.
In April 2020, there was a spike in Google searches for the tension variety, while a May survey by the Migraine Trust showed 58 per cent of sufferers reported theirs had been worse during lockdown.
This rise may have been connected to stress and a change in routine, including different diets and more alcohol – but we don’t tend to think about the cause.
Instead, we take painkillers and hope they go away.
But headaches can have different triggers and will often keep recurring unless you work out why you get them and change your behaviour.
The triggers

Vasodilation (the widening of blood vessels) in your head is often the critical issue – it’s what makes a headache manifest, whatever the specific cause.
This is because your brain is your most vital organ and your body is sending you a warning sign your blood vessels are dilating. If this goes past a certain point, it could be dangerous and cause a haemorrhage.
The pain is a warning sign, which we often ignore by taking a painkiller to reduce the dilation – a strange thing to do, when you think of it like this.
Under stress, we’re also likely to eat poorly and drink alcohol, which can contribute to headaches by dehydrating us.
Sinus headaches

The signs: Pain that starts in your face and gets worse when you lean forward. You may also get a stuffy or runny nose.
These headaches happen due to blockages in your sinuses – four hollow cavities in the bones of your face – and are particularly common in teenagers as the sinuses haven’t fully developed yet.
What’s going on? You’ll get pain related to whichever sinus is blocked.
Sometimes blockages can be due to allergies such as hay fever, and sometimes after an infection.
The result is that blood floods the area with immune system chemicals including histamines, so you get vasodilation.
You can take decongestants, paracetamol or ibuprofen as painkillers, and anti-
inflammatories. Some people use menthol-based products inside their nose – the menthol activates the nose’s cool receptors so your brain thinks it’s less hot, meaning it takes its foot off the inflammatory pedal.
Tension headaches

The signs: A tight band of pain across your forehead – your neck and shoulders may also feel tight, as though there’s a weight sitting on top of your head.
What’s going on? These are the most common types of headache, and can be a result of emotional or physical stressors.
Physical stressors include being hunched up over your laptop or on the sofa. And if you’re under emotional stress, you’ll hold your body in a different way. Stress chemicals can prime your muscles to act, but you never expend this energy.
Either way, your autonomic nervous system – which governs processes like breathing, hunger and fluid balance – and your endocrine system, which controls hormones, are both at work, triggering inflammation.
Lots more glucose and oxygen are sent to your brain, resulting in vasodilation again.
Cluster headaches
The signs: A severe headache on one side, with a bloodshot eye and running nose. One side of the face may droop.
These headaches will crop up every so often.
What’s going on?
We’re still learning more, but these seem to be connected to the hypothalamus – this part of the brain governs the endocrine system and the autonomic nervous system.
The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in the hypothalamus is highly influenced by light that comes through your eyes, and controls your body clock through melatonin (which helps you sleep) and serotonin (the happy hormone).
This may play a role in cluster headaches as they often seem to happen at the same time of year.
Levels of the hormone hypocretin which appears to regulate cravings, so people who have naturally lower levels of it than the rest of us tend to be the ones who are more likely to have addictive tendencies, are low in people with cluster headaches, one possible reason why people who get them are often heavy smokers.
Raising serotonin through tablets or injections early in the episode can stop them.
Migraine
The signs: Migraines often start with yawning, blurred vision and thirst as your brain tries to regulate hormone imbalances.
This is followed sometimes by an aura or visual distortions, then pain, possibly with nausea and light sensitivity, before the final phase where you may feel “out of it” as your brain’s neurotransmitters move back to where they should be.
What’s going on? Migraines are neurological – in other words, caused by activity in your brain.
You get a wave of excitation, sometimes in response to a stimulus such as flashing lights
or white shirts, sometimes for a physiological reason like a bump in oestrogen at certain times of the month.
This is quickly followed by a wave of no activity at all.
This pattern causes potassium to get trapped on the outside of the brain cells. It acts directly on pain receptors, constricting the brain’s blood vessels – then your brain starts to think it’s starving of nutrients so it kicks into gear and leads to massive vasodilation to compensate, causing pain.

thedailymirror--2020-11-21--Lady C's scathing dig after Ruthie Henshall brags about 's******g' Prince Edward

Lady Colin Campbell has weighed in on Ruthie Henshall 's shocking revelations about romping with Prince Edward and her rule-breaking encounters with other senior royals during last night 's I 'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here !
Viewers were stunned as the West End star , 53 , confided in Shane Richie about her romance with her royal ex boyfriend , who she described as a 'lovely man . '
Recalling some highlights of their five year romance , Ruthie said she once gave the royal family an intimate - but drunken - performance of show tunes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ' on martinis during a jaunt to Balmoral .
She then shockingly bragged to the EastEnders actor : `` You performed in Buckingham Palce , you sang in the gardens , I s*****d in the bedrooms . ''
Lady C was asked to give her opinion on Ruthie 's tales as she appeared on I 'm A Celebrity spin off The Daily Drop on Saturday moring - and as usual the typically outspoken star did not hold back .
First Lady C pointed out that Ruthie had broken a number of strict royal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the royal family .
Blasting Ruthie for 'shaking hands ' with the Queen , Lady C scolded : `` She should have said your majesty , curtsied then 'ma'am ' thereafter . ''
Lady C went on to say that Ruthie 's story proves `` that the characterisation that the Royal family is portrayed - in a series that we will not mention by name - is completely inaccurate , '' in a reference to Netflix show The Crown .
`` There ’ s all sort of nonsense about the ‘ Balmoral @ @ @ @ @ @ @ place , '' she fumed .
The Crown makes reference to the alleged set of rules that newcomers to Balmoral Castle are secretly tested on by the royal family but never directly told about .
Margaret Thatcher is seen failing in the show as she comes downstairs in full black-tie too early in the evening .
Biographer Andrew Morton explained the quirks in Diana : Her True Story : `` Ever since Queen Victoria bought the estate in 1848 , it has had a special place in the affections of the royal family @ @ @ @ @ @ @ obscure family traditions which have accrued over the years can intimidate newcomers .
‘ Don ’ t sit there ’ they chorus at an unfortunate guest foolish enough to try and sit in a chair in the drawing room which was last used by Queen Victoria.…Those who successfully navigate this social minefield , popularly known as the Balmoral test , are accepted by the royal family.
” But Lady C rubbished the rumoured rules as she she joked about Ruthie 's close relations to Edward .
`` Ruthie has proven that the Royals @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to make their guests feel comfortable , '' she quipped .
`` Also it has to be said that Prince Edward is a really great guy , '' she added .
Fellow guest Melvin Odoom responded : “ I went to Buckingham Palace once and was told I couldn ’ t take pictures .
To find out that Ruthie was flirting with a Royal in there and got busy in there is a really big deal for me ” Lady C said : “ That ’ s because he lived there .
He @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
They live there , they can do pretty much what they want.
” The discussion was over Friday night 's jam packed episode , which saw Ruthie divulge stories about her encounters with the royal family that left viewers enthralled .
She revealed that she had been to Windsor , Balmoral and the Queen 's estate in Scotland during her relationship with Prince Edward .
She said : `` He invited me to Windsor for the weekend as we 're walking I 'm seeing a table outside and there 's people sitting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ looks like the Queen and I remembered my dad had said to me that if you ever meet the Queen he said you curtsy and call her ma'am .
`` I grab her hand like this [ handshake ] , forget all about the curtsy and I 'm like really really pleased to meet you , really pleased to meet you . ''
Fellow campmate Shane then asked : `` Did you know Diana much ? '
Ruthie replied : `` I met her a couple of times and one of my favourite @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there was Diana , The Queen , Margaret , the Queen Mother , Charles , Edward , myself . '
'' The theatre star said that Diana was 'lovely ' , however she does n't 'remember an awful lot because Charles gave me my first martini . '
`` I 'd never tried it before so I was fairly ...
I had two of them and I was like woah ... '' , said Ruthie .

Ruthie Henshall stunned campmate Shane Richie - and viewers watching at home - by sharing her sexual exploits with Prince Edward at Buckingham Palace
Lady Colin Campbell has weighed in on Ruthie Henshall's shocking revelations about romping with Prince Edward and her rule-breaking encounters with other senior royals during last night's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!
Viewers were stunned as the West End star, 53, confided in Shane Richie about her romance with her royal ex boyfriend, who she described as a 'lovely man.'
Recalling some highlights of their five year romance, Ruthie said she once gave the royal family an intimate - but drunken - performance of show tunes after Prince Charles got her 'p****d' on martinis during a jaunt to Balmoral.
She then shockingly bragged to the EastEnders actor: "You performed in Buckingham Palce, you sang in the gardens, I s*****d in the bedrooms."

Lady C was asked to give her opinion on Ruthie's tales as she appeared on I'm A Celebrity spin off The Daily Drop on Saturday moring - and as usual the typically outspoken star did not hold back.
First Lady C pointed out that Ruthie had broken a number of strict royal protocols in her meetings with senior members of the royal family.
Blasting Ruthie for 'shaking hands' with the Queen, Lady C scolded: "She should have said your majesty, curtsied then 'ma'am' thereafter."

Lady C went on to say that Ruthie's story proves "that the characterisation that the Royal family is portrayed - in a series that we will not mention by name - is completely inaccurate," in a reference to Netflix show The Crown.
"There’s all sort of nonsense about the ‘Balmoral Test’, which has never taken place," she fumed.
The Crown makes reference to the alleged set of rules that newcomers to Balmoral Castle are secretly tested on by the royal family but never directly told about.

Biographer Andrew Morton explained the quirks in Diana: Her True Story: "Ever since Queen Victoria bought the estate in 1848, it has had a special place in the affections of the royal family. However, the very quirks and obscure family traditions which have accrued over the years can intimidate newcomers. ‘Don’t sit there’ they chorus at an unfortunate guest foolish enough to try and sit in a chair in the drawing room which was last used by Queen Victoria.…Those who successfully navigate this social minefield, popularly known as the Balmoral test, are accepted by the royal family.”
But Lady C rubbished the rumoured rules as she she joked about Ruthie's close relations to Edward.
"Ruthie has proven that the Royals go out of their way at Balmoral to make their guests feel comfortable," she quipped.
"Also it has to be said that Prince Edward is a really great guy," she added.
Fellow guest Melvin Odoom responded: “I went to Buckingham Palace once and was told I couldn’t take pictures. To find out that Ruthie was flirting with a Royal in there and got busy in there is a really big deal for me”

Lady C said: “That’s because he lived there. He had his own suite of rooms there. They live there, they can do pretty much what they want.”
The discussion was over Friday night's jam packed episode, which saw Ruthie divulge stories about her encounters with the royal family that left viewers enthralled.
She revealed that she had been to Windsor, Balmoral and the Queen's estate in Scotland during her relationship with Prince Edward.
She said: "He invited me to Windsor for the weekend as we're walking I'm seeing a table outside and there's people sitting round it and I'm thinking that looks like the Queen and I remembered my dad had said to me that if you ever meet the Queen he said you curtsy and call her ma'am.
"I grab her hand like this [handshake], forget all about the curtsy and I'm like really really pleased to meet you, really pleased to meet you."
Fellow campmate Shane then asked: "Did you know Diana much?'
Ruthie replied: "I met her a couple of times and one of my favourite times was we were at Balmoral, there was Diana, The Queen, Margaret, the Queen Mother, Charles, Edward, myself.'"

The theatre star said that Diana was 'lovely', however she doesn't 'remember an awful lot because Charles gave me my first martini.'
"I'd never tried it before so I was fairly... I had two of them and I was like woah...", said Ruthie.
"Let me tell you. Margaret she goes "yes, yes, oh sing us a song from that show you're in" and I was in Les Mis at the time. So I sang I Dreamed A Dream and I must have changed key three times because I was so p****d on martinis."
