    Yes this is what I thought it was about. I had no ill intent at all I never cut in front of someone. Its only fair if you wait you deserve to be taken care of before the person who didn't wait. It was a rare situation I have never seen before I doubt it will happen again it was probably one of those freak of nature type deals for all those small events to happen at once. I don't know why they didn't form two lines of equal length.

    I just read your other post now China and you got it right. I do the same thing at Walmart... when I see a short line with senior citizens who pay with exact coins or illegal immigrants I know they will hold up the line so I choose the longer line that I predict will go faster. I dont jump lines unless there is a problem and the customer is arguing over a 10 cent coupon that expired.

    Oh at the fuel desk stories I could tell after years on the road. I think the funniest one was a day at the PETRO on I-10 a bit east of Phoenix. A lady was in line and took several minutes to buy something. The cashier was trying to get the lady to understand she had give her too much money. Nothing the cashier said could get that old lady to take it back. The lady then went to her car parked in line behind several trucks. After I paid for my fuel and a sandwich I stood there and watched that lady wait till the last truck in front of her pulled off. Then she left.

    I have no idea. The cashier told me she had never seen the old lady before and I did not see her tag. I think she got confused. I have seen many elderly people go into the fuel area's in truck stops before. But that was the only time I saw anybody in a four wheeler actually wait in line like that.

    I just had a candy bar that I wanted to buy so I went into the shorter line and right when I was next one of the black guys in the longer line told me that I skipped.





    I bet this is the guy that called the o/p out. images.jpg
