My first vote would go to Las Vegas. How about you?

NYC and DC must top this list. Perhaps LA as well.

Most large Northeastern cities, to a lesser extent.

Do type As like other type As or do they want to be the only type A?

I like other type A's.....when I say I will be some place at 7:30, I'm there at 7:20--not 8:15--and like the same from others...when I'm in line waiting for coffee, I want a Type A behind the cash register and a Type A in front of me in line who already has given thought to what they intend to order when they approach the cashier...when I'm at the gym I want some Type A working out who is there to actually workout instead of some millenial Type Zzzzz who is in their own world texting for 15 minutes in between sets...when I'm driving and have the right of way (green light) and see a pedestrian in the intersection who has disobeyed the "don't walk" traffic signal I want a Type A who will move his or he as* instead of not only being in the wrong but also lollygaging....when I am watching a Yankee game I want Gary Sanchez hustling after one of his many passed balls,....etc. etc. etc.

NYC is my vote for Type A.

I love this post (besides the millenial part, I'm a millennial!). I agree; Type As appreciate Type A tendencies in others.

Those aren’t Type A’s, just people raised the right way to think of others and not just themselves. The world’s biggest slacker can still have common courtesy towards others.

I know plenty of successful Type A’s that could give two sh*** about anyone’s time except their own, haven’t given any thought to what they want to order because they’re too busy on the phone, etc.

Nowhere within a couple hundred miles of Albuquerque. They would go nuts and throw themselves under a bus...if it was running.

I thought showing up early was the American norm. Where is it not?

And your gen can be just as slow.
