registers, big neon signs to say "hey douchenozzle, next one this is closed)

This is just bad design. Almost comically, your sign shouts, “Look at me, there’s nothing to see here”. You’re drawing attention away from where people should go. Of course this isn’t going to work.

Whoever thought advertising a closed register was a good idea needs to have their idea generator checked.

its not literally a neon sign, when i say neonsign i meant its a very distinct color (and clearly different form an ad) with a very visible font
but even if it wasnt there, it would not make any difference, the 1st register could be broken into thousand pieces and people would still try to use it
