- W328971572 abstract "I have seen the future, and it is at the check-out counter. Standing in line at a grocery check-out counter in Park City, Utah, recently, I was reminded how far the grocery business has come in perform the art of waiting in line. To move lines more quickly, most grocery stores today have installed electronic scanning equipment, added card readers to accommodate credit- and debit-card transactions and made the bagging procedure (Paper or plastic?) simpler and a lot faster. They've mastered the art--and the economics--of waiting in line. Which gets me to a point: Waiting in line at a check-out counter today is a whole lot more fun than waiting in a teller line. Regardless of what line it is, however, Americans don't much like waiting in it. Of all the burdens on their time, people most resent waiting in line, according to a poll reported in the Wall Street Journal.

But if time is a commodity in our society, then perhaps we'd better start measuring the value of that commodity for our customers. A survey by Sony Electronics a year ago found that American adults are spending more than three times as much leisure time with their families in the home versus out of the home. average family, reports Sony, spends 35 hours a week of quality time together, 27 of which occur in the home. A study of professional women in Washington, D.C., underwritten by Citibank, found women equally divided on the question: Are you willing to take a cut in pay for more family and personal time? Forty-seven percent said yes, 47% said no. oldest of the Baby Boomers began turning 50 this year. More and more of them will get more leisure time and more money to spend, predicts The American Forecaster Almanac 1996. …" @default.
