What it's like to be me

If I'm in a shop ready to pay for things and I head to the tills, I absolutely positively guarantee the till I get to will be the slowest. Every time. There can be loads of reasons why my queue will be held up. Usually it's...

• The item that the customer is paying for is something that the new kid on the till has never seen before and needs to call the supervisor.
• Out of all the people in the queue, the assistant choses the moment I get to the till to do a drop. Which of course, requires the supervisor. Who is on a fag break.
• Just as the person in front of me gets to the till, the assistant finds out he/she hasn't got any change, so calls the supervisor to bring some. And the supervisor is 'upstairs'.
• Someone in front of me has an item which "won't scan" - so the till jockey needs to "call the supervisor". Who is currently dealing with someone else.
• Continuing from the above, the supervisor arrives and send the till jockey to go and find an itentical product to see if that will scan. But till jockey cannot find where the items are on the shelf.
• The person at the front of the queue decides to pay for their items entirely in pennies
• The person at the front of the queue decided they have the exact change at the bottom of their bag and will NOT move until they find it (what is it with women being obsessed with finding the exact change??)
• In Tesco you have those 'self scanning' tills. And of course when I'm in a hurry, the person using it has "never used it before and isn't sure what to do". Read the screen, doofus!

No, I'm not paranoid, honest.
