employees wont ring up customers

I've resigned myself to having my employees mainly restock and clean. Though, they do a decent job answering customer's questions. That's where them getting stuck in a group conversation is actually helpful. Once my shop owner got married, it got a lot easier because both of them check out the customers and I haven't had any leave mad. The perks that help household members check them out faster help a lot too. I don't think those work for employees though.

I'll be glad when they sort out the issue with them getting stuck in group conversations, though, especially when their work ethic and skills are high.
