Hate to break it to you, but not all of us are in a rush. Some of us enjoy the human interaction and let it last as long as possible.

Yeah.. As if you don't have enough time on the drive over to at least have an idea.

I can't believe no one's mentioned the coupon warriors at Walgreens/CVS/Rite Aid. You know...those ladies that actually use a shopping cart and then proceed to question the cashier on every purchase over $1.05 for the entire bill.

Wherever I decide to go, I already know what I want. Even if I am going to a restaurant I look at the menu prior to going because I don't like going somewhere without knowing what I want. I use to have a co-worker who would come to lunch with a group of us and he would always tell the waitress he needed more time. An hour is the standard time we have for lunch, but if you get back later its no big deal as long as you make that time up, but the goal is to stay within an hour as much as possible.

We would go at 11:30AM to beat the 12PM crowd, but even at that time it starts to get busy so when you tell the waitress you need more time, she has other table to take care of as well, which delays everything even more.. It is a pet peeve of mine.

The worst is when you're standing in line at the gas station and the person in front of you decides to order something when they go to pay for their fountain drink and gas, which is perfectly fine, the cashier brings them their crispitos and begins to ring them up, then they start with the "And let me get a rollover, one of those meat pies, and a corndog too. Oh, I also need a pack Paul Malls. No not those, the menthol blacks, down on the bottom."

Don't forget the scratch-offs and the powerball tickets.

People going thru the sandwich line with 6 different custom orders for their office at rush hour really posses me off. 1 person 1 order. More than that call it in ahead of time or gtfo

I never understand this... Or.. Well for example, one time I was at five guys, it was lunch time and there was this woman standing off to the side with an extremely pissed off look on her face. I heard her telling someone she had been waiting for almost 30 mins. From what I could hear, she was ordering for a large group of people and she was like "I mean, I just order hamburgers, some with cheese, some with only one patty, some with two and a hot dog. I should have just gone to mcdonalds". Some people think they are the only person on the face of the Earth..

I worked at Sonic during highschool.

People would drive up to the stalls, push the button, then spend 5-10 minutes discussing the menu with others in their car.

When I request that they beep back in once they've decided, they assured me they were ready....then proceeded to talk among themselves again.

How about those fricks that walk in ordering for the whole office and every order has to be paid separately.

If you are behind that person then you could easily be behind 7 other people in line. Instead of 8 people, 1 person decided to take all the orders for the office.

Your next post is going to be "that jerk" in the office who refused to get everyone lunch when several people asked to pick up since he was going there anyway.

People need to call that shite in and pick up half hour later. Nothing worse than walking into subway and seeing only 2-3 people in line, then they pull out their sticky note with half a dozen custom sandwiches each.
