Idiots and Lemmings!

Have you ever had one of those days when the world seems to be chock full of morons?

Had one today...

Arrived at petrol station, as usual, despite the signs above the pumps that clearly state that customers should queue both sides of the pumps, the idiots make one single queue, blocking others from choosing a pump to queue behind, potentially causing a traffic jam in the process.

Go to pay the girl for my petrol and when I say 'pump 6' she stares at me blankly. I say 'pump 6' again a bit louder and she gets the message, she demands £30 quid and then stares again at me blankly. I'm a bit frustrated by this point so I stare back, eventually she gets the message and hands me my receipt. I keep staring at her; I want more from her you see. 'Oh sorry’ she says and hands me my £10 change.

Get to the island by the petrol station and some idiot decides he's in the wrong lane and drifts toward me, I sound my horn. He backs off a bit and then still cuts in front of me.

Get to Sainsbury to buy my favorite mag and a bar of chocolate and the idiots are there too. I approach the quick pay tills, two of them, one is free. Slap my mag and chockie down and some woman taps me on the shoulder and says 'sorry we are queuing here' I turn round and they have formed one queue, for two tills, about 5 meters away. I comply of course and queue up behind them. After a minute or two I say 'why don't we form two queues, it is two tills you know' one guy shrugs, and an elderly guy says 'that's how it was when we got here and you don't argue with a woman’.

What a strange world we live in.

This one has three double sided bays John.  Twelve pumps in total. There would be queues, there usually is, but the idiots come along and instead of queuing behind each pump [or pair of pumps actually there's one at the front and one behind] they park way back and wait for the next pump to become available, blocking traffic in the process.

How much is your petrol?
