Just standing in the supermarket line is torture enough for me. If I weren’t able to read the tabloid headlines I’d probably snap. But certain types of people conspire to make the experience even worse.
Today two people are ahead of me in line, and a peppy old guy is behind me. The old guy is pressing all of his items smack up against mine and then pressing himself within a centimeter of me. This guy’s hope is that his constant pressing will make the line go faster. Back off, Pep Boy!
At the head of the line is the gabby soccer mom with 45 items. Soccer mom explains nonstop everything that’s happening to her and her family to the cashier. As the 45th item is rung up, soccer mom decides she’s paying by check and THEN begins looking for her checkbook. Of course, she could have had the check completed except for the amount, but no, that would have been too considerate of the other customers.
Finally, in between the soccer mom and me is a teenaged girl (a streak of pink in her hair) and our hope for the future. Ms. Pink has a pint of chocolate milk and a medium sized bag of Doritos, and she’s drinking the milk and eating the Doritos. By the time she gets to the cashier she’s devoured both. She pays for the empty carton and bag. The multi-tasking generation – eat as you purchase. Sooo annoying!
