Do I really move that slowly?

    The problem with that is that yea, you paid for it. But you don't let the cashier scan the barcode on the paper. A lot of stores can keep track of inventory or how much they sell of a particular item.


    That's the problem with us these days. It's always rush, rush, rush.

    I always stand to the side a little bit after I'm cashed out and I'm putting my card/change in my wallet.

    What a superdouche.

    Hahahahah, me too!!!! If there's someone in line behind me with one or two items, I will offer them the chance to go ahead of me. Nowhere I have to be is as important as being rude to people. The landscaping was a dicksnort and more than likely a fucktard. May he be destined to dig holes for trees forever.

    Your landscaping pal would have looooooved me today.

    Went to the self-service checkout at a local grocery store. Had a gallon of milk, some ground beef and Manwich.

    Total cost around $11 bucks.

    I had $8 in change.

    I made sure there was no one behind me when I started, though.

    To me, it's a matter of moving with due diligence and urgency.

    No, I'm not defending the turd that almost pushed smallpotatoes aside. All I'm saying is if someone ahead of me is being inconsiderate, rude or oblivious to his surroundings, I lose patience. I fully understand that I'm one of billions of people on the planet. But, like others, those who are ridiculously slow - and clearly aren't disabled or limited for whatever reason - piss me off. Consideration and respect for others are kinda high on my list.

    All I ask when in line is that the people in front of me . . .

    (1) (ONE) !!!!!!!!: HAVE YOUR MONEY OR CREDIT-CARD READY WHEN THE TOTAL IS FINALIZED:

    Nothing is less considerate than WAITING to reach for your wallet/purse until you see a figure. Get with it, Abner.


    (2) Depart the counter frontage with reasonable alacrity once your transaction is completed.


    We're easy.

    Well, shit. If I don't post more, I'll never get to 500. So here's my .02.

    Taters, you were not in the wrong. It was the landscaper. Hell, if he would have left five minutes earlier, he could have spent four minutes and 40 seconds dicking around at the store.
