Queue jumpers

So I was in the supermarket today at the express checkout where you scan your own shopping and this guy 'aged about 25' just cuts in front of me and the people behind me started to scan his shopping.

I lost it:-D I walked up to him and grabbed his shoulder to get his attention and told him "your behind me mate you've pushed in." he said "O.K but there's no need to push me!":-D I didn't push him jerk :mad I violently yanked on his shoulder:-D Does the douche not know the difference between a push and a yank?

You just know the kind of people that jump queues are A-holes,if I'd have pushed into a queue 'by accident' I would have apologised and gone to the back of the queue.

Anyway I just ignored hi,waited until he'd moved his shopping scanned mine then left,I wasn't in the mood for him.

There was another time this middle aged lady 'accidentallyrolleyes' jumped a huge queue I was in at the supermarket near Christmas,one of the store clerks directed her to the back of the queue and she played the innocent old lady and guess what? After the clerk left she went and did it again!:-D

I dunno I consider myself a pretty chilled out guy but queue jumpers just might be my kryptonite...

 

Spec for tank and get instant Queues?

*hides nerd and runs away*

 

I Thought you were insulting me for a second:-D I have no idea what your talking about,I even Googled and still have no idea.

But yeah if I played WOW I'd be pretty annoyed if someone jumped the tank queue I think:confused and yeah the tank you queue for should be spec'd right:confused

I think:confused I feel like my dad.So this is what it's like to be old and out of the loop,it's surprisingly confusing:confused I may as well just throw an episode of Matlock on and start complaining about kids.

 

I've got no use for them. I'll always say something, but I'm not looking for an altercation over it. Basically I don't want to get beat up.:-D

 

Just be thankful you don't live here in Belgium, it's a national sport.

 

They started this new thing to create groups of people to go off and mash in skulls. You have to queue as either a tank, a heal, or a DPS (Damage per second). If you are a dps your queue is nearly 40 minutes on a bad night, but a tank's queue is instant.

See, no one plays i guess so no one got the joke but me

 

I would never grab etc. But no way I'm letting in a queue buster. I'm always extra polite, but get the point across. It's strange but people get my gist.

On the other hand, if an elderly person asked me, I would let them in before me.

It's happened before- and to those who complain, I would say I was holding their place. :-D

Cheers..

 

I only touched him on his shoulder because he had his back to me and it was noisy

I would let an elderly person sit down no problem on a bus ect. but jump a queue no way:-D If I instigated the the queue jump because they looked like they were struggling maybe but not if they expected it and definitely not if they pretended to be senile so they didn't have to queue.:-D

Cheers..:-D Do you down a shot every time you make a post Sikvik roflmao

 

You have to laugh,you enter a virtual reality world because its better than the regular world, you can jump over buildings,control huge armies,travel at the speed of light to other planets,destroy entire civilisations with a click but before you do form an orderly queue for 40mins:-D

Makes me wonder if without the 'queuing' the 'getting' wouldn't be as enjoyable,is it something innate to the human condition?

 

Only when posting in the lounge, that to only in a thread started by you. :-D

Cheers..

 

I used to be a queue jumper when I knew that I didn't have much left in my back, well only once really. I was using a cane in those days and a nice Asian lady let me cut in as she could see the sweat on my face and probably the pain on my face too. I'll always remember her fondly.

It wasn't worth the 5 CD disc changer that I had bought on special though, piece of crap!:-D

 

It bugs me when they pull that crap,usually they ask if you want bags at ASDA 'Walmart owned and run' Its a damn plastic bag that costs less than a penny FGS.

One thing I've noticed since Walmart took over is the clerks have become much more friendly,I have a female friend who works there and she tells me they have classes in friendliness and customer service:-D

That girl must have skipped that class,better just to let it out now I say if I don't I'll think about the person that's bugged me for hours afterwards.

 

I am ashamed to reply since few says I am worst that i don't say anything when this happens:-o:-D Few reasons are I don't need to get introuble/arrested for something like this(no offense) but I did tons of stuff when younger and now I am on the straight road. Here people get in fights and kill people for dumbest reason/no reason at all. In the last month tons of shootings/killings for nothing. I don't feel like comfronting someone and later they meet me outside like past times. I can handle my own pretty well but I don't want a gun to face me.:cry

 

No hard feelings:-D Just like to remember people that my town is pretty dumb and full of idiots. Ive been through the bar seen. Id like to go to them if I could with my GF that would like to go out. But every time I went out there always fights each time. People come up and just run there mouth and fight for no reason. Like time I was there a known loser in my town(man) knocked out 2 girls in mid 20's (known bad woman.. but still woman) and 1 hit tko them both. 2 guys tried to say stop it and he knocked them out as well.. And for my GF who "hasn't seen many things when younger or now" don't know what really happens at things then I always gotta worry about her lol..

 

I feel like the last courteous fool on the planet sometimes. The lines for checkouts here are so narrow that it's impossible to cut. I'm the person who will let you -- with your 3 things -- go ahead of me and my full cart. People look shocked when I offer. I'm sure I learned this somewhere. People used to do this, I swear it.

If you put on your turn signal I'll let you cut in my lane too. No signal, good luck, sucker!

 

I always do that too if they have a couple of things and I have a load.

One thing I always do now is skip checkouts that have lots of elderly people in:-D I'm sorry its agist but have you ever been stuck in a checkout when an elderly person is tryna find their money?If I see them take out a debit card its game over,that line isn't moving for 10 mins.:-D And I just know they'll ask a question about something in their basket and a call will have to go out over the tannoy requiring about 3 store clerks to explain why you can't take 5 grapes from a sealed packet.:-D It happens every time without fail.

I can smell the type,I always check most of the people 'young included' aren't holding a debit card or anything in their hands they want to ask a question about,if they do I'm moving on to the next checkout.

I'll be old pretty soon and then it will be my turn to hold the line up muhahaha.:flip

 

HAHA! Well, actually that's me when I go to Europe now. I was quick with the Austrian Schilling and the German Mark but I completely can't keep track of the Euro coins, or the bills for that matter. I might feel a tiny bit bad for people who get behind me and my mom in line speaking the local dialect and it takes them a moment to realize we aren't really locals anymore. By then it's too late, they are trapped as we dig through our wallets.

I discovered that the Frankfurt airport has donation containers and now I dump all those crazy tiny coins on my way out.

I amend my previous statement. People love to jump the queue at Ikea. Not just the local Ikea but all of the ones I've been to. After going through a 2 hour loop through the store, they are suddenly in a hurry?

 

I love to mess with and embarrass anyone who tries to cut in line. Just poor manners. I learned how to stand in line back in preschool. Seems they don't teach that these days.

Dang kids with there line jumping, and rap music!! :-D:-D

 

Take you time I won't be behind you :-D

That's another annoying thing too,some people like to pay with change because they don't want to pay 5p per £1 at the change machine getting it changed,you know who you are not mentioning any names HANDYGAL :-D

If people do that I just leave the line and go to another.

 

You didn't have any of that in my day,we had to queue for 3 weeks just to get slice of bread! If you jumped the queue a 7 foot aboriginal man would remove your spleen and eat it.

Kids these days...

:-D

 

You have sliced bread? :-D

 

You have bread?:-D

 

Rikky, I see people do that all the time. I love it when they do it to my wife, and I come behind them and say "Umm, that's my wife and you just cut in front of her" then they are all apolegetic and whatnot, yet before their body language showed that didn't give two fecks about what they were doing.


Fannys the lot of them!
