text: Do you mean that people that scan through your purchases at the cash register?  If so then the term is cashier and you definately won't make enough money to support you and your three kids as the job usually only pays minimum wage.  If you want to become one then bring your resume to the store and ask to speak to the manager.\n\nOr do you mean the people that appear to be counting the items then scanning them etc?  If that is it then the term would probably be "inventory specialist" or "auditor", although the term may vary from company to company.  You may want to check into the business below to see if they are hiring in your area.  I'm pretty sure the auditors only work part-time though, just so as you know.
