There are two possible queues in the supermarket, why is it the one you decide to go for is always the slowest to move, has the customer in it who has picked the only product in the whole store with no bar code on, or the checkout operator decides to close as soon as you stand there?

Does this only happen to me?

It’s the same at the cash point; I always end up standing behind the person who decides now is a good time to print out and check a monthly statement, check the balance on all four of their accounts and then print out receipts for each transaction!

Then there is that thought that goes through your mind…. shall I change queues?

You battle with this little voice inside your head telling you “NO! You know as soon as you move your queue will start to move, don’t do it”.

So you move queues anyway despite the little voice and yes, your original queue starts moving at the speed of light…..

Please tell me this doesn’t only happen to me?
