      "The overweighing was quickly traced to the cashier's chesticles" Not very often I see that word used!

        See? If checkout staff were topless, such mistakes would be notice immediately! But no-one signed my petition!

        I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

              "Rhubarb sticks are quite long and hang off the end of the scale so they were actually underweighing. Now we break them in two before putting them on the scales." Methinks someone doesn't fully grasp how gravity works. Unless there's something near the scales that the protruding Rhubarb was clinging on to this doesn't make a lot of sense. I can see the headlines now. "Rhubarb in boob grabbing shocker". -Richard

              Not necessarily...have you ever stepped on a bathroom scale (or the type of scale used for weighing people in a doctor's office)? Assuming you have, now lean to the far right/left/front/back and notice how the weight changes slightly (even after it settles from the movement)... most scales are innaccurate unless the object being weighed are centered and not moving. I participaged in sports for nearly ~15 years being weighed at least once a week...there are a LOT of ways to cheat a scale.

                    OK, so let's take a wild guess at which checkout queue I won't be standing in...

                      Yes, I have seen many stores where the scale is built into and level with the counter. The scale is only about 5 inches square, which works well for small items, but wouldn't work properly for larger items.

                      Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

                      Hmmm. I had no idea that there was such a Rhubarb-Scales Impedance Mismatch. As the man said on leaving the chiropractor...."I stand corrected." And their solution is to break the Rhubarb in half? What happens when the customer says.. "I'm not paying full price for that...it's broken"? Perhaps they should arrange for well endowed female cashier's to process Rhubarb sales....to cancel things out. -Richard
