Behind the lady having some kind if incident.

Tweet

I have been told I have the patience of a saint. But this morning my patience was tested. I had two items at Safeway, a bottle of wine and a dozen eggs. The lady in front of me (in line) was having some kind of "incident." It involved a Target card (what does Target have to do with Safeway?) and maybe four items. Was she trying to get some kind of discount? Perhaps 20 cents? Or maybe even 50? I have no idea. After about three minutes, I started to grow restless. I left my items on the "belt" and went and grabbed a sharp cheddar cheese ball. I love those things. When I got back, the "incident" was still happening. I actually got so enraged, I glanced over my shoulder, as if to say "Can't you open up another line? Shortly thereafter, a man came up behind me with lots of items. We stood there for a few more minutes. Finally, the Target lady left, and I was able to buy my three items. Is patience a virtue you possess?
