Super Market Thieves
The oddest thing....
A very perky couple. (couple of People not like..boobs...) were in front of us in line at a nearby super market. They had a cart full of food and not like....liquor, sesame seed oil and antidepressants so they SEEMED normal. They also seemed real cheerful and perky, despite the fact there was only one cashier open and there was already more then 4 people in line to check out.
The weirdness happened when a new checker came and opened a line. We could see the perky couple wanted to switch to the shorter line, but they couldn't make up their mind and just do it. Which should they do? Stay in the one they already were in or move to the new line in hopes it would move faster. Indecision was written across their features, they did that half step in the direction of the new line movement, then faltered and stayed in the original line. It was almost painful to watch. The wife, being an oh so clever soul ended their indecision in a most unusual way. She LEFT their line and went to the new one beside ours, that way they could double up and switch at a moment's notice to the the new line should it suddenly start moving at warp speed. Umm...o.k......you're ONLY supposed to do that when OTHER people are NOT behind you. Basically they took two spots you see. I have only moved from one line to another while me sweet hubby waited in the first line IF no other people were in line behind us, OR about to join the line behind us.
It's weird too, cause they looked so normal, all bright and smiley while cheerfully breaking the law of the super market line up. I almost hated running over their feet with my cart. O.k., I didn't really do that. I was too busy scraping my jaw off the floor in utter amazement at their audacity, their....dare I say it, BALLS OF SOLID BRASS to so blatantly act so greedy.
But let me tell you, those extra 3 seconds they ended up shaving off of their check out experience...hooo yeah, you can't buy that. Sure it may earn you the dirty looks from fellow shoppers and have deviant red heads thinking terribly nasty things about you all the way home in her sweet little civic, but man...that's NOTHING, NOTHING I TELL YOU compared to that THREE WHOLE SECONDS. If three whole seconds saved in a super market were gold it have to be like, 5 katrillion pounds. Why else act like an ass and treat strangers like they're unworthy of those 3 seconds. Cause those extra 3 seconds is valuable stuff, that's why. I'm gonna have to get me some of that.
I suspect these 3 second people with the over bright smiles and middle class suburban good looks are the same people who drive SUVs and think that passing on the right is *o.k.*. Cause the extra 3 seconds they shaved off the time it took to get to the red light up a head...mmmm that's Gold baby. That's Gold.
All I know is I'm out three precious super market line seconds. If they're that good then I want em back, I could probably have sold them on EBAY, and made a fortune.

Good gosh I didn't see you there. You must have seen us doing that. We only had a few things and no breaks anywhere in line.
Ah , Were we that bad????
We had to get home or miss our tv show and surely you understand the importance of that.
Are WE forgiven????
hee hee
That was YOU? haha Nope, thought about it but those people were most assuredly not you. They were rude and strange, and strangely rude. hahaha
