If I’m standing in a line I can predict with 85% certainly who will hold up the line at a Circle K. I know part of it is that they need smokes and lottery tickets but that’s only the beginning.

For some reason they end up doing like 3 separate transactions. I waited almost 5 minutes for a guy to finish last night and all I got was a 44 oz Dr Pepper.

And don’t forget the $5 worth of gas (prepaid). The first $4 worth pumps in 30 seconds then the last $1 worth takes 5 minutes to pump.
