Doesn't it drive you crazy to get behind someone in line paying with a check....

I have had a really bad day. I went to pay a bill, and got stuck in line of course behind a woman who made them leave and hunt for something. I stood 25 minutes, irritating. Then I go to the doctor and of course I'm waiting in line to register and pay my co-pay, Another 20 minutes. The lady in front of me must have asked 12 questions repeatedly after she was already told the nurse takes care of that in the room. So then I'm even more irritated.. I stop at the store on the way home to pick up juice and pepsi, I get in line and 3 people ahead of me theres this woman who has an entire buggy full of stuff, when it came time to pay she didn't have the check ready, and then of course had to find her pen and then she didn't have her drivers license and had to go to the car to get it. She finally gets everything all done and the line moves until the lady in front of me puts her stuff on the counter, they check it out and after it was all said and done then she reminds the cashier that she had brought a mop to return, so then they had to get the manager to approve the refund. I was in this line for 55 minutes. Needless to say I'm glad to be home. How about you, do you find this irritating? Maybe I'm just an impatient person.

Yeah.. me too get irritated a lot, when i face a stuff like this... Infact, if i was there instead of you, i would have really slapped that lady in public.. And i would had blown her asss-off.... I do get furious with these type of people... It really irritates me a lot... And i can't hold my anger.. And finally, the last thing i wanna say is that u are not impatient at all...

I only get irrated when this happens when I am running late to do somethings else. It just seems like no matter what you did you just couldn't catch a break today. Everyone has bad days where they feel like everything is going the wrong way. Hopefully your day will get better.

Yeah, and to make matters worse, I just had my car looked at and my axle went. What's next? I guess I'll have to wait and see. Thanks for letting me vent a little.

I get days like this and it makes me want to scream sometimes. I don't like being held up when I am in a hurry and you can guarantee that when I am short of time, then every line I join is the slow line, every traffic light will be stuck on red and every person will be counting pennies out at the checkout. What gets to me is the line in the supermarket for 10 items or less, the express checkout lane, and you will always find it full of people with many more items and the wrong money

I am usually always in a hurry so it's quite frustrating. I can relate to everything you said. Thanks:)
