Cutters in Line Questions Opinons Debate

If my turn wouldn't have started yet, then it's STILL HER TURN then.

So what's the deal with you saying she forgot something? I don't understand. If she forgot something, she had already waited in the long line, so what's the big deal?

I didn't see her my entire at least 10 minutes or so waiting in the line first off. Secondly, it's a big deal since I wouldn't have done that. I would have gotten the item and went IMMEDIATELY in the back of the line, because I left the line at least 10 minutes ago probably more.

The big deal is that she's CUTTING and I wouldn't do that to innocent people.

How can you not understand that it's wrong to cut? The big deal is she was in another line A LONG TIME AGO, so HOW does that count for anything, huh? Also, WHO SAYS she waited in a long line? At that time, she may not have had a long wait. We don't know, do we?

The big deal is that if I was that guy and the other people behind him, that's at least a minute of their time they had to wait longer. HOW IS THAT *FAIR* TO THEM? They have things to do too.

As I said before, if I was that lady, I wouldn't have even DREAMED of cutting like that. I would have automatically went to another line that was an express line or self-checkout or behind that line. Even if offered I would have told the cashier "That would be cutting, I can't do that."

I think of other people's feelings, NOT JUST MY OWN. I would think about those other people that had been waiting a long time to finally have their turn. THAT is what the big deal is. I don't do that to others, so others shouldn't act like they are ABOVE ME like their time is more important that mine is when I don't do that to them.

The server is lazy. To miss 6 items, that's stiffable. That's just not trying and not caring.

I bet the manager would have been on my side after seeing the video surveillance showing that I really didn't cut. I should have reported it. It still pisses me off to this day and this happened many years ago.


Video surveillance ? Really ?

I have no doubt that you are the most demanding person in any situation. You are not a glass is half full or half empty type of person. You would be complaining about the color of the glass. The world is not here to serve you. Lighten up and enjoy your time on this planet. Before you know it you will be old and gray and only have the petty complaints to look back on. Peace.

NO I am not.

NO.

Servers and bartenders are.

It's not petty complaints to me in my heart.
