....so I go to the supermarket today after work. I'm tired as usual, but otherwise had a good day. I get what I need and proceed to get in line. All the lines are long and suddenly a new check stand opens up. So the lady I am standing behind goes to that check stand-I, then, move up.
This couple then moves from their line and get RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. They were standing in the express line, which was next to my line and of course was very long. They just stride right past and stand in front of me and put their two candy bars (yes, that's it) on the conveyor belt and don't even cast a glance my way.
by the way: It's not like I'm hard to miss. I'm 5'9 barefoot.
I'm leaning on the cart looking at them deciding if I need to let them have it. They are speaking language I do not recognize and are probably staying at very exclusive nearby resort that has a lot celebs and international visitors. Now, it's this couple and another woman. On and one they are going. I try to make out the language (which I'm pretty good at) but can't. They are European most likely.
Anyway, they are just blabbing and blabbing. I begin to put my items on the belt and I can tell they are commenting on my purchases. They really carry on when they see I have put six bottles of ragu on the belt, "Well, it's on sale and I have a family!" , I'm thinking to myself.
I do get justice though. It actually took them LONGER when they moved to my line because the customer right in front of them was a cantankerous old guy who was the customer from Hades and it was taking him FOREVER to finish. They would have been better off staying where they were. HA! HA!
Now, I'm usually very vocal about when it's my turn-at the snack bar, at the meat counter, etc. I made a conscious decision to let it go. Next time, however.....we're talking a can of..
Whoop! Arse!
Okay, I'm done.
So, how was YOUR day??
