I was at the supermarket earlier and an elderly woman was having a bit of chat with the checkout operator. Nothing major, she wasn't just standing there for ten minutes gabbing away. But she was talking as she packed her bags and a couple of times leant over to hear better what the checkout operator was saying to her.
A youngish woman in front of me with a little boy in tow was muttering and glaring and even turned around to me on one occasion and rolled her eyes.
AIBU in thinking there's a happy medium between causing unreasonable delays at the checkout, and expecting everyone to rush through at top speed without exchanging the slightest bit of conversation with the staff?

AIBU?
To think a little bit of pleasant chit chat at the checkout is okay
