How to lose a customer in 40 minutes

I see that there are cameras at the main pay point and any one can do a case study \ How to lose a very good client spending R 2000 per month in 40 minutes"They must look at the footage from 14h50 today the 4/6/2015 until 15h30. I was the first in the queue with about 15 customers behind me. Two cashiers just stopped and started to count their money. At first I thought that the systems were off but then much later I heard the 2 cashiers only work until 3 p.m. and just stand there. I was stunned because for one moment I thought that I was standing in one of the government offices because that is the service levels were are used to but not in a retail store. The supervisor behind the tills just looked bewildered and did absolutely nothing to help the customers (I actually thought it was a guy fixing the computers). To cut a very long story short I have asked them to reverse all my items because then my cashier took 15 minutes just to help me because of a slow computer. What makes everything worse are the bad attitude "
