Tall person, extremely short cash register. Having to bend over all day and customers feel sorry for me

I got my first cashier job only to find out the cash registers are literally like less than 3 feet tall. I’m 5’10 and it’s way shorter than me, like comically so. I have to bend way over to put stuff on the counter, grab a bag, get money from the register etc. Customers notice and it makes them uncomfortable, they’ve said they feel sorry for me, that my posture is going to be wrecked and that I’ll need to book a back massage at their spa. A couple of tall customers have said it’s too short for them to put their stuff on the counter. I told my boss multiple people have complained every day and they said the register set up is new and won’t be changing anytime soon but they will write down the complaint. What should I do?
