Waiting in line is hard for everyone. Here are some things people should avoid doing in order to make it a little easier for everyone.
1. Cutting in line. This should be obvious to everyone, but somehow this still happens and sometimes leads to confrontations. I don't care if you're in a hurry - other people in the line probably are too and you're holding them up by cutting. I also don't care if you see a friend in line and you want to talk to them - if they want to talk they'll get in the back of the line.
2. Invading personal space while in line. Being so close to me that I can feel your breath on my neck won't get you there any sooner.
3. Talking loudly, saying rude things. Usually, when a person's talking is bothering me, I can move, but I can't do that in line.
Note - Here are things you can do to make everyone's line stay a little easier. It's not rude if you don't do these things, but they're just nice things to do.
1. In the grocery store, let the person behind you go first if they have only one item and you have a full cart. This probably will hold you up for two minutes while saving them ten minutes.
2. When trying to get out of a parking lot at the same time, let one or two people out of a side row if possible. Note: I realise this is tricky, because sometimes you let one person out and everyone else in the row think they can come out too, and that won't make the people behind you very happy.
