Cafes should have 2 lines...

Can we have a separate set of weights machines at the gym? One set for those who want to use them for their intended purpose and one set for those who just want to sit on them playing on their phone.

I’m so glad someone said this!

That’s lovely

You don't need a separate line for that, you just need to give bar staff permission to whap them over the head with a metal bar tray if they leave the Guinness to the end of their order. Guinness first, and the other drinks get sorted while it's standing. Guinness last, and you get walloped cross-eyed. They'd soon learn...

I’ve only had this issue when it’s busy and there is new staff otherwise rarely an issue.

I love my local Starbucks. The ladies behind the counter are absolutely lovely and they remember my drink order. It’s the only place that is open past 8pm that is usually quiet and not a pub, restaurant or gym.

Any bar with a big queue can piss off. I usually get served straight away or they have table service when I go somewhere that does good cocktails, and you certainly don't feel you are holding up someone's half a pint of mild.

Can we have 1 queue and 2 lines at railway stations?
Queue closer to the train you're getting on, not across the platform.

1 line for meandering along because you've got all the time in the world and no place to be.

And the most important line for passengers who've got connecting trains to catch, multiple staircases to navigate to get to the right platform and suitcases to carry.

Oh yes. And when they finally find their credit card they have forgotten their code. And they have to call their spouse. And rambling "oh, he's not answering, he must be out. I will try again. And then when he does answer they start talking about why he didn't answer the first time. "Didn't you hear the phone. I'm shopping. Yes, I got the cheese but they were out of the spread you like. ""

I could have been in prison now but I controlled myself enough to just say oh ffs loudly and got a stern look from a Lady infront of me. Can't believe I was the only one fuming. They must have all been smoking something to be so calm.

Wow, so many miserable people about on NYE, particularly the pp who didn't know the difference between a barista and baritone, lol! I love good coffee and coffee shops and even as an impatient person, can bear to wait. I don't go to Starbucks or Costa though, so the clientele might be different

Yet, posters know what they mean.

Do you know .... and hear me out.... I was thinking of standing for Reform MP in my area. Low workload, only need to go to London to vote when Nigel goes (twice a year) and I could get on with important things in my local area, like pot holes, hospitals and blitzing those queues!
I don't agree with any of their policies but I don't think that matters, I could look wide eyed and confused if anyone asked me about them.

I was also thinking of setting up a starter Subway, a safe space for people new to Subway, where they could make mistakes and learn before entering a real Subway.
Or maybe Subway ambassadors, people who would go with people if it was their first time. Also Nandos, for a first timer, you never know how much you can do yourself and what you have to leave to the staff to do for you.

I haven’t been in a line since I was at school.

Is there an actually any evidence that Jesus drank hot chocolate? 🤔

I'm pretty sure they would just prioritise the line of people wanting more expensive drinks than the tea line anyway (why would you regularly bother paying for a cup of normal tea when you could so easily pop it in a flask).

If I'm out, I'm going to order something I don't have easy access to at home.

Would you consider standing as an MP? I have a vote currently going unused

The only decent places are those that serve it in a pot as it is the best way to make tea.

Even they do not provide the essential tea cosy that I use at home.

Costa tea is surprisingly nice.

You’re onto something OP, and look at all the other ‘two lanes’ suggestions :) I completely agree with you too, life is just too short!

ALL of this makes me feel stabby, I'm not nice person as a result with idiots, esp the blasted yappy humans and their irritating dog leads. Just fuck right off, middle of an empty field would be great.

Yes to this! Also a queue for people who want to chat and those who don’t. Everyone seems to talk to me. DH said I have a friendly face ha

We have one of these in our nearest Morrisons. It specifically encourages people to chat.

There is also a dedicated checkout that will let children scan the shopping.

I said this exact thing when I made the mistake of going into a Starbucks at Center Parcs. Absolutely filled with people who look like it’s their first day on earth waiting until they get to the front of the queue to decide what to drink then ordering a potion with 15 ingredients. There should be a ‘no more than two ingredients’ line and a ‘ridiculous concoction’ line.

😂😂

Yeah this. A new bar opened up locally and was an independent so we really wanted to support them. Went in one night and there was only 1 staff member and she was making 4 cocktails. It took us exactly 22 minutes to get a beer and a red wine! It closed down in less than a year.

I hear you. I had a free Coke bottle voucher from
Costa, it was a bit mad waiting so long for my transaction which took 10 seconds.
