It might mean 1 of 2 things: 1. people are pushing thier way infront of him. 2. He is uncomfortable because people are pushing on each other infront of him, being hostile.

It means:
The person gets annoyed when people try in cut in line or push themselves in the line, while at the supermarket checkout.

Queue (I don't know if it's spelled right?) but I think it means to line up.

I guess you don't understand how the system works.
We line up in order at the cashier, to check-out purchases.
People from other countries or cultures are ignorant of this,
& push their way into the line to get ahead, this is rude.
