Speedrun timers on self checkouts (lemm.ee)

Am I the only one who gets to the self checkout and is compelled to finish as soon as humanly possible?

Imagine if there was a speedrun timer on them and a leaderboard

Would make boring everyday life a little more interesting

That would stress me out too much. I shop for people for a living and I'm constantly timed. The bosses are obsessed with my metrics. Even if I have to stop to tell a customer or to guard a spill per company policy, all they care about is that I'm not getting 100 items per hour.

If I was being timed for my personal shopping, I'd just start screaming and never stop.
