You're in line for over 5 minutes. A new line opens up and the cashier says "Next person in line please." Then the LAST person in line sprints to the new line.
Who does that?! People will be selfish if you let them get away with it. I can't take it anymore.
I sweetly said, "Oh, I think she said the NEXT person in line, not the LAST."
I know human nature is to avoid confrontation, but in all honesty it really doesn't bother me that much. To see this inconsiderate lady turn red and try to stammer out some excuse didn't bother me- there is no excuse! You thought you could get away with treating everyone like crap because they wouldn't speak up! Maybe I'm a bad person, because I didn't feel bad. It almost worries me, I feel little to no emotion for her. I only see logic: you did something selfish and stupid, of course you should feel ashamed.
I think I'm being desensitized. It must be all the tv and internet...

I do NOT look the other way. I witnessed this in the check-out lane next to me. The poor older gentleman that was next in line stood there with his mouth hanging open when he was line jumped.
I called the *itch out. In front of about 12 other people. Basically? I made her feel like crap for being disrespectful.
It was awesome.
I hate when people do that...and they do that stuff all of the time! I say something, can't help it, it's rude!
I'm an effing wuss. I love being with people that aren't, I get all panicky and excited when someone I'm with calls someone out. Good job, maybe one day I'll grow some, but when I think I've really let someone have it, my husband laughs at me and says I was as nice as possible and by no means actually stood up for myself. I was cussed out by an airline employee last week in front of my kids and a line of lost luggage people, I told her I did exactly what she told me to and then I went to another employee and told on her. I felt like I was turning in Bin Laden, what a rush! I really do know that I'm a dork.
You're back! Where've you been? You've been missed.
Oh, and I totally agree. I can't say I've ever spoken up, but I've given direct, dirty looks to line jumpers.
