I bought return tickets for 3 of us onboard EMR this morning (I don't know the name of portable ticket system they use) and the resulting long string of card got me thinking:
The tickets are printed receipt first, then each return in sequence, i.e. receipt, out, return, out, return, out, return.
Self service TVMs print in the same order, though obviously these tend to dump a pile rather than a connected string.
This seems logical when selling tickets, but more times than not, would it not be more customer friendly for using tickets to print all the outwards, then all the returns? I always find myself having to reshuffle the pile/string.
