Do you call people out who push in queues etc?

[Heretheycomethebeautifulones]

I can't stand it when people just push into long queues and usually say something. I know people will say 'just leave it', but this is how they keep getting away with it, by relying on nobody saying anything.

I know there are much worse things in life, but when you've been queueing a long time and you're tired and fed up, it's not nice.

This can apply to other things in life too.

I was queueing to board a plane last night after a long delay, a woman in her 20s decided she didn't fancy the long queue and just pushed in near the front. A woman must've seen me looking irritated so she tapped me on the shoulder and said 'Just leave her, she might not be all there'.

Yes, always

If it's airport security and they're about to miss their flight, I wouldn't mind them jumping at all if they asked, but boarding the plane is different.

I did once and had a rather embarrassing row in Poundland 😆 ( should have gone to Waitrose ).

I'd love to hear more 🤣

I don't really care.

Sometimes. Depends on the situation and if it's worth making a fuss.

I'd say most of the time people do it by accident though. I know I have. Plane woman sounds like she was just being a CF though.

Yes I called out a very haughty couple who shamelessly pushed in a long tourist entry queue, I'd been diligently waiting my turn for more than 30 mins. They pretended not to understand me, but I eventually shamed them to moving further back.

I'd do it again

I wish i cared less.
Some queues are not really queues, just a bunch of people scrambling together, but when there's a clear line it's different.

I always do. It bloody infuriates me.

Every. Damn. Time.

It’s bad behaviour and we should all call out bad behaviour.

Yes, I told a man who pushed to the front of the queue in the post office that we were all queuing and he needed to wait like the rest of us. He shouted why did I think I was so special (the irony 😄) and stormed out.

I was only about 20-21 and wouldn’t have said boo to a goose normally, I’m not sure what came over me!

I did once but the woman was so mortified and apologetic (she hadn’t realised where the queue started) that I felt worse than if I hadn’t said anything!

I wouldn't say anything about people pushing into a plane queue. I'm always a bit baffled as to why people queue to get on a plane tbh.

Yes I do.

Not sure how to vote though because you didn’t say anything.

Is that the unreasonable bit, or just a general question?

I was waiting once at a food place, waiting in the correct place to order (as I get their food all the time). A man came over after me and stood at the opposite end where you collect orders from. I don’t know if he noticed me standing there or what but when the lady finally came out and served me first he made several loud passive aggressive comments about thinking I’m more important than others ect. I just ignored him but it was quite intimidating as he seemed to be seething with anger and I was scared he would follow me. I was 100% there before him, and he was waiting in the wrong space, but I can only think he must have thought he was in the correct place to order and that I wasn’t and that meant he should be served first. But even if I wasn’t I was still waiting there before him.

Yeah usually I do but I don't think I could be arsed waiting to get on a plane, I'd rather be standing and moving about before a flight so the shortest time sitting is better for me. The plane's not going to leave any quicker because she pushed in

Depends

If it's an orderly queue, I might.

If it's because someone is faffing, delaying everyone else and 5 people would have had time to go through instead, I join the ones who push in and go around 😂

I mean when boarding a plane you kind of have to queue to scan your boarding pass/show your passport don't you?

It’s not difficult to point to the end of the queue and say “actually the queue starts there”.

She was a bit of a bruiser and although I can stand my ground I regretted it instantly 😆

I've been that mortified woman. If it makes you feel better, I was grateful that someone said something rather than having a queue of people silently hating me!

Ha I had a similar experience except he said, "There's always one" and I said, "Yes and it's you."

I had an old lady just boldly step in front of me in a queue knowing full well I’d not say anything as she was on a zimmer frame.

then her son joined in the queue behind her. I don’t think he had any idea his mother was just barging around in to people but then I suppose he must be a wanker to let his barely walking mother hole a space in the queue for him the first place

I work in a shop and people queue jump all the time. Then if you say anything to them they complain your being rude!

MYOB, you never know if theres a reason for it.
