Not this one! I pick an aisle and a parking space, usually farther out and I still can get into the store quicker than those that get a front row spot.

And porkchop - I would have done the same thing that girl did to you all the while cussing you out. The difference would have been me not rolling my window up, but down so you could hear me speak my mind.

Why would you be mad at me? At that point I didnt hold her up, she went to the front of the line. Thats the premise of the whole story.... her not waiting....

And while we're on the topic, I feel most places should have one feeder line that then goes to the individual cashiers (or wahtever).

Every single time I get in a line, it becomes the slowest line EVER.

This. There's also nothing wrong with backing out and getting in the other lane if the one you're in is that slow, but hovering and making others have to do the same because you dont want to commit to a line is irritating for the other customers and the tellers who have to deal with the folks you frustrate.

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.

Oops, i did forget. I spend so much time trying to be considerate of others I forget how rude so many are. The golden rule was shot down and burned a few years ago I hear.

If banks wanted to institute a feeder line, they'd have one. Not leave it up to customers to make one.

Oh, while Im at it, most banks have a line dedicated specifically for COMMERCIAL use. They dont appreciate you using the regular lines for that kinda transaction either, as you are interfering with the system they use, in fact, they typically post signs that specifically ask customers to be courteous and use the appropriate designated line. Just saying.

I was only in banking for years. As every kind of teller. And when you have a certain person handling personal transaction and someone else handling commercial, and you decide to fuck up the system, you make everyone else have to wait. And I have to use the commercial line every day.

You are one of those jerks who asks for deposit slips too arent you? (kidding on the last)
