Queue Jumpers

While shopping for back to school items (yippee… oh I mean darn school starts in only three weeks) the store was absolutely packed with people trying to get a bargain on discounted Christmas items and like me back to school items. I was yet to see any real bargains so I took my three items and waited in line to be served.  Even though I chose the express three items or less line I was still waiting for quite a while before I was served.  While paying I noticed a woman with a pile of items in her arms walk straight past everybody in the queue to come and stand right behind me.  I heard the womans grand-daughter say “Nanna it’s three items or less” to which this queue jumping nanny responded with “yes dear but it’s ALL wool… that’s one item”.   I took my change and looked back at the queue to see MANY people shaking their heads and no doubt expressing a few choice words at this queue jumpers actions.  I’m no lip reader but I think I can safely say that what looked like the words “far queue” was in truth a little more colourful!
