“Every time I use self-checkout, the person in front of me has never used self-checkout, touchscreens, or money before.”

I swear every time I use the self-checkout lane, the person in front of me has never used self-checkout, touchscreens, or even money before.

Whenever I use self checkout at the grocery store the person in front of me has never used self checkout before and they have produce and don’t know how to lookup the item, enter the code, or weigh it.

Every time I use self checkout, it just so happens that the person in front of me has never used a self check out, touch screens, or money before.
