Walked up to the counter and the women smiles at me and beckons me over and asks how I am.

Woman looking at something on the shelf next to the till turns around and dumps an item ready to pay, I was literally about to place my basket on the till.

Woman serving then turns to me and asks me to wait. Aibu to think she should have served me first?

For Christ's sake. OP, is your life so devoid of meaning that you have time and energy to post crap like this? Grow up.

I second we need a diagram

She was rude as fuck. What you need to do is cover your face in camouflage makeup, track her down, fashion a weapon out of some strong and tinfoil -A-team style and take her down.

I don’t know where the rest of mumsnet come from but if someone pushes in front of me in a queue and hasn’t even attempted to queue it fucks me off. You must all be tolerant people Hmm

Well aside from the elderly lady that time who I swear floated at speed with her feed an inch from the floor that is. I was too gobsmacked at what I was seeing to react.

Guess it takes one to know one, yours must be completely devoid of meaning for you to feel the need to comment that,

And grow up? Says the person giving out insults from behind a screen.

@Alexa mumsnet isn’t an echo chamber. If you want to be told what you think then go and stand in front of a mirror and tell yourself what you want to hear.
People can have opinions that differ...it’s ok! Your comment is also incredibly ironic

Opinions that differ, are you joking? I’m not seeing that of late and I’ve been struggling to put my finger on what’s changed since around September. All I’m seeing is bitchy sheeples with no opinion of their own...

You should have bittern her head off for pushing in.
While we are British and our country pastime is queuing that’s no excuse to be rude it’s just not cricket.

StickThatInYourPipe · 20/02/2018 23:41

Tbh YANBU op because I would have been secretly seething about it (as a British woman, queue jumpers are obviously one of my most hated creatures)

However th comment upthread about making a movie did make me actually laugh IRL

The posts about getting a life and growing up are a bit Hmm we all get pissed off at petty things

I think this situation is very much like polo. First come first served. If she beat you to it making physical contact with the till then she claimed priority of service.
Perhaps the cashier was dim didn't know you intended to pay immediately?

Seems to me that quite often Mumsnet posters only want to listen to people who agree with them. Very trivial post. First world problem - move very swiftly on....

YANBU, if the assistant beckons you over she should have served you. However, there are some people who don't understand how small supermarkets work.

At our village stores there'd sometimes be a customer (disorganised, pyjamas peeping below coat) who'd pick up in item as though to pay, place on counter, the assistant would start the sale on the till, then the customer waltzed off to the other end of the shop to get a few more items, with furrowed brow, etc. The assistant couldn't use both tills at once and other customers had to wait while flighty Miss got her backside in order. Eventually they saw her coming and would serve others and then ask her if that was all so they didn't fall into that trap again.
