I'm staring at an organic banana and it's 94011 so it does seem to follow the +9 for organic shit pattern

I never got how you guys could remember all that shit.

Constant exposure and repetition.

I remember training someone and at the end of their first cashier shift I asked them what they thought. They said it was pretty easy, but they needed to get better with the fruits and vegetables. I told them not to worry, you'll memorize the numbers with time.

They replied "No, I need to learn what they look like so I know what number to look for..."

Inner cities are wild sometimes!

You just punch them in so often.

Is it organic because it has more carbonic acid?

I only worked at a grocery once as a summer job, but holy crap I sold a ton of 4011s. Nearly every customer bought them, or at least anyone who wanted to live. Basically the exceptions were the old women who instead bought cartons of Pall-Mall cigarettes.

Nah you get the 94011 but you use the 4011 code at self checkout.

Weird... Prime rib, avocados and maple syrup are also 4011 at self checkout.

Do you have to figure out how much everything weighs in bananas?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Gives new meaning to "banana for scale"

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

They usually have devices to calculate that for you.

I bet those scrubs don’t even measure the radiation level to check against the amount of claimed banana mass.

Jet fuet doesn't melt steel beams! Oh wait I might misremember that one.
