    Have these people no understanding of the concept of hurry the **** up?

    Same folk who pack their shopping then react to having to pay like it's a weird new development.

    Ah no the train was late - it just wasn't late enough to compensate for the team being late too.

    Especially when they watch everything being scanned without packing. Then they act surprised that they have to pay. Then they begin to pack. :mad:

    Dawdling in general needs criminalising.

    Check in desks at airports. All the other people in the queue get involved in protracted and heated discussions with the check in staff while attempting to get their boarding cards and drop their baggage. When I get there it takes about 10 seconds. What on earth are all the others talking about?

    Old people at checkouts!

    Time-rich, consideration-poor.

    STOP TALKING TO THE PERSON SCANNING YOUR ITEMS. GET ON WITH IT. GET THE FVCK ON WITH IT.

    Ooh, and I'll have 4,000 Super Kings. How's your Ian, luv?

    Worst is when your walking behind someone and then they just stop like there’s no one else in the world, especially when your in a rush and they won’t move out the way

    also why can women not look where they are walking...or walk where they are looking..... not hard is it.


    And don't get me started on people on mobile phones when they are checking out...ignorant as **** that is. I was once impressed by a lass in a shop and as she stopped checking stuff out...the customer on the phone suddenly looked at her as if to ask why...the lass just said "well obviously you are not ready yet, so I will wait till you have finished on the phone"

    I did wonder if she took a risk for her job the check out lass that is, but the arse on the phone stopped her texting/call went red faced and put the phone away.

    People wandering across the concourse at Waterloo station at rush hour watching some film they've downloaded on their phone.

    was entering the car park at a Llidl's the other week when a mobile phone zombie was wandering down the car park on her phone...totally oblivious to the universe ...she was getting closer and was totally not gonna get off the roadway... I was driving at a snails pace hoping she would come back down to earth but no. So I had to give her a blast on the horn...she looked as if she had an "OOOPS" moment the phone went in the air and fell apart upon impact. Got a glare from her , but just told her that the place my car was using was in fact designed for traffic and not 'Candy Crush'... she then replied... well I will not say but it did bring Lionel Richies 'Three times a Lady' to mind.

    The ones that boil my p*ss are those that use self checkout, empty their basket loose onto the scale and then pay, produce their own bag and then repack each item - making the whole exercise twice as long as it needs to be.

    JUST PUT YOUR BAG ON THE SCALE AND PACK AS YOU SCAN YOU MORONS!!!

    Also agree with the OP about station Zombies!!
