7/15/2021 No Coconuts...
I'm standing outside the food bank, a bit of a distance from the door, but I'm the only one there. I keep my distance from the door so that those exiting can do so without being crowded by me. When one person exits, then I could take my turn, so I was just waiting my turn. The person checking people in must not have noticed me? I'm not sure. But another guy comes up and asks if I'm waiting in line, I say, "yeah." He proceeds to get on my case about how far away from the door I'm waiting. "You don't look like you're waiting in line!" he exclaims. I'm not really in the mood that day, so I don't really feel like explaining that I'm just giving the exiting people room to exit and just waiting to be called upon because they're kinda hyper about how many people at a time can be inside. I know he knows the drill about waiting to be called in--I've seen him there before, he's a regular. Meanwhile, a woman comes up from behind me, says excuse me, and goes past me and just walks right in. Needless to say, this upset the man behind me. With noticeable agitation in his voice, he says, "See? She just--" and he stopped himself before he used the elementary school phrase "cut you!" I finished his sentence for him though, quietly. He says this, though, as he's stepping in front of me to enter the food bank, so I say, "So did you." with about 50% of an exclamation point. It was a little annoying, but I wasn't in any hurry. Really what annoyed me was his complaining about getting cut in front of in line as he's cutting in front in line. So he clearly didn't give a shit about anyone else but himself--cutting me in the line evened it out for him, and that was all he was concerned about. Just another day on planet fuckle.
