Being held hostage in a convenience store line by an old lady writing a check for slightly over the amount required for a cheap bottle of peppermint schnapps & postcards while asking for ONLY 'those new State quarters' in change.

No, but is she related to the woman who writes the checks in the "Cash Only" line?

She's the same lady who tied up the line at the grocery store arguing with the cashier over every item that did not ring up at the sale price and then dug in her coin purse to count out the exact change...please let's designate a 55+ checkout line at all stores.

No, but similar situation with an old woman today at the pharmacy who decided to the tell the Pharmacy Assistant her entire medical history after picking up her prescription. I didn't really need to know about her overactive bladder and diabetes.

someday 60 years from now you may be standing in line at the checkout, and the youngster behind you will be complaining because the old fart in front of him ,was using "credit cards".

No -- but I was behind that same old lady when she got off the escalator & just stood there.

no, but be a good person and be patient, she is old, and what is the waiting doing taking 5-10 minutes out of your life, don't sweat it.

Yeah, I know what you're talking about. I just try to be patient and considerate. One day we will all be old and feeble.
