I was at the bank last Saturday to claim my replacement ATM card for the one I lost. As it was the weekend, the queue at the bank was kilometric. No kidding. It snaked around inside the bank, and I waited for a total of an hour and a half.
Anyway, there was this woman ahead of me in the queue. After several minutes, she recognized someone ahead of us in the queue. She immediately left her spot in the queue and joined her friend, where they chatted merrily until she has taken the spot right behind her friend, thereby CUTTING IN LINE BY SEVERAL PEOPLE.
Now, as the woman was ahead of me, it didn't really affect my position in the queue. However, I think it's really effed up when people do that.
Dear Rude Woman Who Doesn't Know How to Fall In Line,
We're all waiting for our turn here. You can't just jump several people ahead of you because you saw someone you know. You're not even that intimate with that person, as your body language show, the way you try to fill in the gaps between your conversation with awkward laughter and small talks.
And IF your conversation with your friend is so damn important, your friend should JUMP BACK to your spot and let the people behind your friend JUMP AHEAD. That way, you didn't inconvenience anyone. And IF you two are really tight like that, it wouldn't be much of a bother if she did jump back to your spot, behind her in the line.
What you did is inconsiderate.
And yeah, I'm not singling you out. I'm talking to ALL OF THE PEOPLE WHO EVER DID THAT MANEOUVER. Totally not cool, guys.
