Tumhaaraa time time, aur humaara time kuch bhee nahi? :(
I hate people who try to barge in before the other people waiting in a queue already. This shameful act is so insulting to others who have spent anything between 5 minutes to half an hour waiting. As in, are we foooolllsss, who have spent our time in the queueu, following some discipline? What gives you the shamefulness to disregard other people's time and just value yours urgently? Were u a VIP to proudly make your appearnace? How can you nod at your friend silently in the queue and join it, pushing the other people behind?
Today in the cafetaria, i saw one smart-ass approaching the queue for breakfast grinning at his friend, who immediately pushed himself backward to give the smiling-idiot some space. I felt something choke me. I clenched my teeth, instructing myself to let it just go. But my anger got the better of me.
Me (trying to keep my face straight and my voice soft) : "Excuse me! Can you please follow the queue???" (##$%$%%#!^&^*****)
Smiling idiot (taken aback for a split second): "Err..Umm..Oh actually I had been waiting few minutes back and I have rejoined".
Me (not convinced and this time find myself shrugging my shoulders and raising my eyebrows): "So?????"
Smiling Idiot dint know what to do. He continued to stand where he was, and I turned away with an oh-no-use-talking-to-you-incorrigible-fools expression. But the silence which followed our short exchange was weird (:D). I failed to notice that now there were other people specially ladies who were now glaring at the smiling idiot, who was no longer smiling but nervous under the stares. After some 3 minutes, he left and rejoined the queue at its rear. Good for him!!! People may think I was rude to correct him but then, I have no regrets.
