The 10 items or less line is long this guy stands back and looks around. He notices that I (waiting patiently with a loaded down cart) just allowed the chick on her lunch break to jump ahead of me with her Mtn Dew and crackers. He then stands way too closely behind me clearing his throat and looking over my shoulder with his box of rice krispies and 12 pack of Keystone Light. I know you're there line jumping opportunist, but I refuse to let you jump ahead. In my mind I turn to him and say. "Listen, I have a one person kindness rule in grocery stores and on the roads. I can only allow one person in." In reality I pretend he is not there and stare with interest at the latest issue of InStyle until he huffs away. If he is still in line after my check out is complete I always look his way and smile. I won line jumper! Line jumpers. The 10 items or less line is long this guy stands back and looks around.
