What is wrong with people? - Page 2

I'll bet you she's posting as we speak:

"So I went to this local bank where there's usually not a lot of people because I was in a hurry. Got there and there were 2 lines open but some JACKASS was straddling both lines and holding everyone up! So, to teach him a lesson, I pulled next to him (close to the wall, boy I'm daring!) and him and the other car started honking! What a jerk! So, deciding not to get into a confrontation, I rolled up my window and wouldn't make eye contact hoping he'd go away. Good thing I picked the right line because I got right through. Serves them right for not picking a stupid line! Geez, what's WRONG with people?"

Still doesn't change that fact that 99.9% of the population is selfish pricks.

You're kidding me right. The folks we frustrate? Just lolz. Why do some banks and fast food places already do that if it just "irritates people" because we can't choose a line. No, it's more fluid.

Yeah I notice more and more stores are going to one feeder line rather than individual lines. It's much more efficient that way. I see it at grocery stores for the self checkout line and at Best Buy.

Yup. I mean it if it came down to me being mad just because she got to go before me, then I'm just as self centered. But the matter was I was the opening manager, and the store opened late because of her. Customers and the company don't care how it happened.

Unless they are setup for it, then it doesn't matter. banks don't tend to have feeder lines in the parking lot, so you are on your own if you try it and then someone says fuck your feeder line.
